We’re forming the EquiRate AI Advisory Board—your expertise is needed now.

Inclusive lending doesn’t scale on good intentions—it scales on systems, standards, and accountability.At Cannas Capital, we’re building the EquiRate AI Advisory Board to guide the next phase of our solution (formerly Bank Black): inclusive lending infrastructure built for cannabis banking and cannabis-related business lending, with a roadmap to expand into other markets.We’re inviting leaders from banks, credit unions, compliance, underwriting, CDFIs, impact finance, and community development to help shape product direction, market fit, and the real-world rules that make inclusive lending durable.EquiRate AI is also entering a critical standards moment, including ASTM standards-related consideration connected to inclusive lending.If you want to help define what “inclusive lending” should actually mean in practice, reach out to Eric Foster, Board Chairman of Cannas Capital Holdings at: [email protected] or visit our website at www.cannascapitalholdings.com Common Sense by Eric Foster is a reader-supported publication.
