JPMorgan Chase, LISC Atlanta partner to support minority-owned businesses amid pandemic

Rashida Winfrey, a minority small business consultant with JPMorgan Chase and Dale Royal, the executive director of Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) Atlanta, say the global health crisis has exasperated the challenges that many Black-owned businesses were facing pre-pandemic.

“Our businesses of color have been impacted the most by COVID and as they are looking to pivot, they need cash to be able to invest in their dollars,” explained Royal.

Both Royal and Winfrey were guests on Monday’s edition of “Closer Look.”
