The Lending Brief Podcast (brought to you by the Center for USA Lending and sponsored by Allocore) shares stories of innovation, challenge, and impact among federal lending programs. Each episode features a lively interview with key figures on the cutting edge of the field, including current and former government leaders, industry experts, and other thought leaders working to modernize federal credit programs.
Through these conversations, the Lending Brief explores how agencies manage risk, scale operations, adopt new technologies, and deliver better outcomes for borrowers and taxpayers, translating complex policy and operational issues into practical insights for anyone working in or around federal lending. It's the podcast on federal credit programs you never knew you needed.
