📢 Shout out to CFA Society New York for hosting such an exciting event all about bonds! It was great for Rock The Street, Wall Street to participate and hear Robin Wigglesworth of the Financial Times discuss his new book, A Fabulous Debt: The Epic Story of How Bonds Built the Modern World. Thanks to Mark Howard, CFA for leading such a good discussion.

📕 As Robin notes, some have considered bonds boring; however we agree with him, they are anything but. Bonds have funded everything from “the Crusades to climate tech” and so much in between. Robin shared that he even attended a big birthday party in Amsterdam for a 400-year-old bond that is still paying its investors.

🎓 For students learning about capital markets, the discussion is a reminder that finance has a long history, a few surprises and plenty of great stories.

♻️ RTSWS was proud to join conversations at New York Climate Week. Across the City, leaders in finance, technology, sustainability and public policy explored how to build more resilient communities.

At REGEN HOUSE, The Nest Campus, Pier 57 and other venues, many discussions stood out. Here are a few highlights:

🔹 New York State Insurance Fund (NYSIF) examined how growing climate fluctuations affect financial risk, property insurance costs and long-term insurability, with perspectives from Moody's Analytics, S&P Global, New York University and Insurance for Good.
🔹Verizon, Ericsson and Palistar Capital explored how telecommunications infrastructure, hardware circularity and capital markets can support the resilience economy.
🔹 The Buckminster Fuller Institute opened a discussion with Innovera and California Forward on financing and delivering solutions at scale to help communities prepare for today’s challenges and those ahead.

🎓 It was especially rewarding to connect with colleagues across the industry, including the Financial Women's Association of NY and Financial Women of San Francisco, and to help Rock The Street, Wall Street scholars take part. These conversations show students how careers in investment and innovation can help communities develop sustainable solutions.

☀️ Executive Sponsor Spotlight: Financial knowledge opens doors to opportunity. We're grateful for our Executive Sponsors who champion Financial & Investment fundamentals, career readiness and industry access to help students build confidence and expand participation in the capital markets.

Today, we're pleased to feature Wylie Tollette, CFA, Senior Advisor at Franklin Templeton, who shares:

💬 “Understanding investing is one of the most important forms of financial empowerment. When young people gain the knowledge and confidence to participate in the capital markets, they are better equipped to build financial security, make informed decisions and contribute to a stronger economy.

RTSWS is helping expand participation by preparing the next generation, especially young women, with the skills, perspective and industry connections that help them succeed.”

Thank you to Wylie and our Executive Sponsors and volunteers for helping RTSWS students turn financial knowledge into career opportunities.
