One Million Black Women and Mission-Driven Banks: NAACP, Goldman Sachs,
Wells Fargo and PayPal Collusion
*Description*
Dear Madam or Sir: Today's memo requests records related to NY-DFS
monitoring of $10,610,000,000 of pledge funds (detailed below) specific to
financial inclusion. xNY.io would like to receive any and all records
related to NY-DFS' monitoring of Goldman Sachs' potential money laundering
and other abuses of Goldman project, One Million Black Women, with $10B in
direct capital and $100M in charity investments:
https://www.goldmansachs.com/our-commitments/sustainability/one-million-blac...
xNY.io would like to receive any and all documents correlating NY-DFS
monitoring of (or, confirming no correlation) the One Million Black Women
fund related to any association to other Goldman student scholarship funds
in Africa ... Furthermore, xNY.io would like to receive any and all
documents, related to NY-DFS' regulatory scrutiny of interlocking
directorates at the NAACP, Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo and PayPal with
potential collusion in leveraging marketplace spoofing tactics (or, records
confirming no spoofing tactics) concerning $810 million in pledge funds
associated with the 2020 Mission Driven Banks whitepaper:

Attached and below, kindly find outline of the $850M pledged: Goldman Sachs
Industry: Financial Services Pledge Amount: $250 million Use of Funds:
Goldman Sachs has committed $250 million for small business lending.
Goldman Sachs will not issue these loans directly since it is not an
approved small business loan provider in the United States. Instead, it
will provide the financing to CDFIs and other mission-driven lenders to
make the loans. Wells Fargo Industry: Banking Pledge Amount: $50 million
Use of Funds: Wells Fargo has pledged a $50 million investment in African
American MDIs. See Press Release PayPal Industry: Financial Services Pledge
Amount: $510 million Use of Funds: PayPal has pledged $500 million for a
long-term economic opportunity fund to support African American and
underrepresented minority businesses and communities. The initiative will
include “bolstering the company’s relationships with community banks and
credit unions serving underrepresented minority communities, as well as
investing directly into African American and minority led startups and
minority-focused investment funds.” PayPal deposited $50 million in Optus
Bank, an African American MDI in Columbia, South Carolina. PayPal will use
another $10 million for grants to African American-owned businesses
affected by the COVID-19 pandemic or civil unrest surrounding protests. The
very best, Gunnar Larson
