Important Investments
While our efforts to draw and retain a high-performing workforce and robust supplier and vendor network are essential, FHLBank Boston recognizes that inclusion is important in other aspects of our business.
Capital Markets, Community Investment
Our Treasury team continues to engage with and attract various firms to invest with and sell securities to.
At the same time, our Housing + Community Investment team administers programs like Jobs for New England, which provides members with below market-rate financing to support small local businesses to help communities flourish.
Our Commitment to Website Accessibility
FHLBank Boston dedicated significant resources to provide a web experience that meets the needs of as many visitors as possible. Our team will continue to incorporate design practices and techniques to ensure access to the largest audience, regardless of a website visitor’s ability.
We proudly partnered with Perkins Access, a division of Perkins School for the Blind, to provide inclusive design reviews, role-based training, expert and user reviews, accessibility audits, and remediation and retesting of fhlbboston.com.
The World Wide Web Consortium Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (W3C WCAG) are the common guidelines and standards used by developers of accessible websites. FHLBank Boston is committed to conforming to level AA of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities.
