September 18, 2024
Fitch Ratings, along with other members of the Investment Grade community and A Better Chance, is delighted to announce the second annual Investment Grade charity event, Making the Grade on Wednesday, September 18th at 6:30pm at Bryant Park Grill in New York.
Making the Grade will again bring together market participants from across the Investment Grade community to support making education more equitable and inclusive. The cost of the evening has already been underwritten by a leading investment grade community member. As such, all money raised by the event will go directly to A Better Chance, a non-profit organization founded in 1963.
The event will be a cocktail reception with light food stands and an opportunity to network with the key participants in the investment grade market: bankers, lawyers, prominent portfolio managers, credit analysts, and CFOs/Treasurers. Funds will be raised solely through the sponsorship of the event (available now), and a limited number of single ticket sales will be made available at a later date.
