SPOTLIGHT ON: DEBORAH FIGART
Figart Gives Testimony on Public Bank Proposal in Philadelphia 
Deborah M. Figart, Distinguished Professor of Economics at 淫性视频, is a member of the Philadelphia Public Banking Coalition, a public interest group. Figart has been working with Philadelphia City Councilmember Derek Green, who also serves as Chair of the Committee on Finance, on exploring the possibility of a new public bank in Philadelphia for almost two years.
On Oct. 5, Figart gave testimony during hearings regarding her economic impact studies of a proposed State Bank of New Jersey and a proposed Philadelphia public bank.
During her testimony, Figart said, 鈥淧ragmatically, public banks are an alternative revenue stream for community development projects in a context where increasing taxes is challenging. A public bank can yield positive local economic development effects through its operations and lending.鈥
The overall takeaway from her economic impact study using input-output analysis is that every $1 billion in new lending would yield approximately $142 million of increased earnings in Philadelphia; 3,171 new jobs in Philadelphia; and $1.50 billion in new metro-area gross product in our Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington metropolitan region.
鈥淚t was a pleasure to share public policy research with the Philadelphia City Council. Councilmembers are interested in hearing how proposed policies can affect people鈥檚 economic well-being,鈥 Figart said about the experience. 鈥淪mall businesses and local infrastructure have been underfunded for years, and public banks can invest in their own backyards. I hope that legislation will endorse the concept of a public bank in Philadelphia. Influencing legislation is a key reason we do policy-based research.鈥
