Event Description

Nonprofit leaders are continuously challenged to secure funding, to maximize their real estate, to prove their credit-worthiness, and more. In a pandemic like COVID-19, these struggles have intensified, but leaders’ commitments to good information and smart decision-making must endure. In this two-part webinar series, three long-time nonprofit advisors will empower responsive, actionable, and durable planning efforts by sharing their best practices and newest insights. The first webinar will take a 3-month perspective and address short-term challenges and opportunities, while the second webinar will examine a 3-year landscape.

Sunil K. Aggarwal

Founder, ThinkForward Financial

Financing is problem-solving, says Sunil Aggarwal. He realized more than two decades ago that New York’s nonprofits and small businesses would excel in a competitive market using solution-based project financial planning. In 2009, “ThinkForward” became the working model for an advisory dedicated to helping small and mid-sized enterprises navigate the funding challenges inherent to mission oriented organizations. To-date, Sunil’s practice has structured and placed $2.5B in bonds, loans, and tax credits, specifically for this unique segment of companies. Sunil’s experiences as Vice President of the NYC Economic Development Corp. (1990-1997) and later as a senior investment banker (1999-2008) provided early exposure to a wide range of development financing tools. Through the years, Sunil has maintained and expanded relationships with NY economic development agencies, banks, bond and tax credit equity investors, and community development lenders—contributing to the long-term viability and success of hundreds of NY nonprofits. Sunil holds an MS in Quantitative Finance from Carnegie Mellon University and an MBA in Finance from the University of Manchester. He is an SEC and MSRB Registered Municipal Advisor and a Registered Rep with A. Bridge RealVest Securities Corp (broker-dealer), and he holds FINRA Series 7, 50, and 63 licenses.
