The Double Bottom Line

Investing in California's Emerging Markets

Treasurer Angelides' landmark Double Bottom Line: Investing in California's Emerging Markets initiative has directed more than $14 billion in investment capital to spur economic progress in California's inner cities and underserved communities. Capital investment has been made available for home mortgages, infill development and business expansion – all with the "double bottom line" goals of solid returns for the State's pension and investment funds and broadened opportunity in California communities.
