Strategic Plan and Investment Strategy
- MnCIFA’s Strategic Plan is intended for audiences internal to the organization, a guide for staff and the board.
- MnCIFA’s Investment Strategy is the primary public document to state organizational intentions to external partners.
2025-2026 Strategic Plan: The strategic plan serves as guidance for the staff and board by defining the lending activities that will be undertaken over a two-year period. MnCIFA is required to submit a strategic plan to the legislature by December 15 on every even numbered year.
Many components of the plan are dictated by Minnesota Statutes, section 216C.441, including identifying target underserved markets, programs to serve those markets, annual targets or goals for lending levels and outcomes for each of those programs, and outreach and marketing strategies to advance those programs. All projects supported by these programs must meet the statute’s definition of a Qualified Project.

The investment strategy was developed in consultation with similar organizations in other states, lending authorities, state agencies, utilities, environmental and energy policy nonprofits, labor organizations, and other organizations with relevant advice on MnCIFA’s activities. The investment strategy also incorporates public input; MnCIFA will continue to solicit and integrate community feedback. MnCIFA’s investment strategy reflects its vision and mission.
