    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    LONDON, April 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Synergy, the network driven by data and intelligence by AccessFintech, announces the launch of Settlement Netting, transforming operational efficiency in the fixed income markets. Synergy by AccessFintech captures data from a wide range of asset classes, including securities, derivatives, alternatives, and payments, enabling seamless data transformations across network participants. This solution promotes real-time transparency and cross-market collaboration across the entire post-trade lifecycle, using advanced data pairing to improve pre-matching accuracy and reduce fail rates. Leveraging cloud-native infrastructure, Synergy streamlines workflow processes, generates actionable insights, and resolves exceptions in real time, optimizing post-trade efficiency.

    J.P. Morgan and Citi were instrumental in the establishment of the service, with J.P. Morgan contributing to the use case and both Citi and J.P. Morgan providing valuable input and refinement for the solution. An industry working group with key repo market participants has helped to deliver the design of the common data model, market structure considerations, and operational workflow. Initially piloting its netting programme in the €15 trillion EMEA repo market, Synergy’s AI-driven insights and data model centrally matches transaction details across trading counterparties, removes the operationally burdensome spreadsheets currently used to calculate netting obligations, and promotes secure counterparty communication through structured queries via API or UI. This significantly improves fail rates, reduces asset movements, and reduces transaction costs associated with fixed repo settlements. Synergy has also deployed innovative AI-based intelligence – with the ability to generate settlement netting candidates real time – and utilizes historical data to inform counterparty behaviour on data elements such as performance against settlement obligations and amendment rates.

    “We have partnered very closely with AccessFintech on this collaboration solution as we believe it will transform the smooth operation of the repo market,” said Anthony Fraser, Global Head of Prime Financial Services Operations at J.P. Morgan. “Integrating J.P. Morgan’s best-in-class operating model and workflow tools with AccessFintech’s state-of-the-art technology enables us to establish a model of standardization, transparency and seamless communication. We’re committed to delivering solutions which drive enhanced settlement efficiency and result in better outcomes for our clients.”

    “We are pleased to bring this important collaboration solution to the repo market with AccessFintech. We remain intensely focused on creating solutions that enhance our clients’ investment performance and success,” said Jaime Healy-Waters, Global Head of Cash Equity Middle Office and EMEA Cash Securities Settlements at Citi.

    The launch of Settlement Netting expands AccessFintech’s Synergy platform, enhancing its capability to drive data transparency through advanced normalization, visualization, and seamless access to comprehensive transaction data. Settlement netting also allows Synergy clients to leverage its global data platform to net obligations across repos, TBAs, cash transactions, and other asset classes to increase operational efficiency and maximize liquidity. Synergy is also uniquely positioned to streamline interactions between clients and custodians and eliminate manual intervention by sending instructions via API to custodians.

    Tom Granelli, Head of Netting Product, Synergy at AccessFintech said: “We are continuously driving industry transformation to prepare and strengthen market operations for the future. We remain intensely focused on creating solutions that enhance our clients’ investment performance and success. Settlement Netting is another example of our deployment of the transformative Synergy network, enabling the ecosystem to magnify their operational effectiveness and reduce unnecessary manual processes.”

  • MIL-OSI: Synaptics Unveils First Veros™ Wi-Fi 7 Family Tailored for the IoT

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SAN JOSE, Calif., April 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Synaptics® Incorporated (Nasdaq: SYNA) announced it has extended its Veros wireless portfolio with its first family of Wi-Fi® 7 systems-on-chips (SoCs) tailored for the Internet of Things (IoT). Comprising the SYN4390 and SYN4384, the scalable offering supports bandwidths up to 320 MHz to deliver 5.8 Gbps peak speed and low latency. The triple-combo SoCs integrate Wi-Fi 7 with Bluetooth® 6.0 and Zigbee/Thread, support Matter, and are designed to minimize system cost and power consumption. They target IoT applications requiring reliable performance-over-range for enhanced user experiences across use cases that include 8K video streaming, interactive gaming, security monitoring, immersive AR/VR, and home and automotive entertainment.

    Wi-Fi 7’s multi-link operation (MLO) allows the devices to send and receive a data stream using multiple frequency bands (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 6 GHz) simultaneously in support of low latency, reliable connections, and high throughput for real-time applications like video calls and gaming. Synaptics’ architecture provides a power-efficient, cost-effective way to deliver the benefits of MLO.

    “Growing adoption of Wi-Fi 7 in wireless networking infrastructure has created an opportunity to address a massive and diverse array of Wi-Fi 7-enabled IoT end-user devices by extending our Veros portfolio,” said Venkat Kodavati, SVP and GM of Wireless Products at Synaptics. “We are bringing the benefits of Wi-Fi 7 in a versatile solution for high-performance, low-power IoT devices. Combined with the ease of integration with our Astra AI-Native compute platform, we expect that developers will have an efficient solution for implementing next-generation connected and AI-enriched IoT products with features such as Wi-Fi Sensing.”

    ABI Research forecasts annual shipments of Wi-Fi 7 chipsets to reach more than 2 billion by 2029, achieving a CAGR of 56% between 2024 and 2029.1

    “Wi-Fi 7 is ushering in a new era of more enriching and sophisticated use cases for connected devices thanks to its channel bandwidth, throughput, and latency improvements,” said Andrew Zignani, Senior Research Director, ABI Research. “However, the requirements for implementation vary by product type, and edge IoT introduces challenges that differ from PCs or infrastructure applications. Synaptics’ diverse Wi-Fi 7 solutions are tailored to address these unique needs, including low power, support for multiple connectivity protocols, and AI. These will be critical in enabling Wi-Fi 7’s expansion across multiple IoT segments, reaching billions of annual device shipments over the next few years.”

    Wi-Fi 7 family highlights
    The Wi-Fi 7 IoT family’s support of Matter and its triple combo design provides the interoperability required to allow the devices to serve as versatile home hubs that can operate across Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Zigbee/Thread networks in heterogeneous wireless environments. Features support2:

    • Peak speed of up to 5.8 Gbps, using 2×2 + 2×2 MLO, 320 MHz channel bandwidth, and 4K QAM
    • Integrated RF front-end and power management IC (PMIC) that contribute to reduced system cost and power consumption
    • Dual-core Bluetooth 6.0 for LE Audio, Channel Sounding, and LE Long Range
    • Matter and an integrated 802.15.4 radio capable of enabling Zigbee and Thread networking3
    • Integrated Arm cores and memory to enable offloading of networking functions from the host processor to help reduce system power consumption4

    Availability
    The SYN4390 is available now for sale, and the SYN4384 is available now in limited quantities for evaluation. For more:

    Our selection of the best online casino for 2025 involved a rigorous, multi-faceted evaluation to ensure a safe, rewarding experience. Here’s a detailed breakdown of our methodology, which led us to crown 7Bit Casino as the top online casino:

    License and Security

    A valid license is non-negotiable for trust. 7Bit Casino operates under a Curacao eGaming license, a respected authority ensuring compliance with fair play and player protection standards (Casino.org). We verified that 7Bit uses 128-bit SSL encryption to secure all data transactions, safeguarding personal and financial information.

    Regular audits by independent bodies like eCOGRA confirm game fairness, with random number generators (RNGs) ensuring unbiased outcomes. We also assessed the casino’s privacy policies and data handling practices to ensure compliance with global standards, making 7Bit a secure, best real online casino.

    Bonuses and Promotions

    Bonuses significantly enhance player value. 7Bit’s 325% welcome bonus up to 5.25 BTC + 250 free spins is among the industry’s most competitive, distributed as:

    • 1st Deposit: 100% match + 100 free spins.
    • 2nd Deposit: 75% match + 100 free spins.
    • 3rd Deposit: 50% match.
    • 4th Deposit: 100% match + 50 free spins. We compared this to industry averages (typically 100-200% bonuses) and found 7Bit’s offer superior in value and flexibility. Ongoing promotions, including Monday 25% reloads, Wednesday free spins (up to 100), and 20% weekend cashback, were evaluated for fairness, with a 40x wagering requirement deemed reasonable (Bitcoin Casino Kings). We also checked for transparency in terms and conditions to ensure no hidden clauses.

    Game Variety

    A diverse game library is crucial for broad appeal. 7Bit Casino excels with over 10,000 games, covering slots, table games, live dealer options, and crypto-specific titles. We assessed the range across categories, ensuring options for casual players and high rollers. The inclusion of demo modes for risk-free play was a significant advantage, rare among top casinos online. We also evaluated game accessibility across devices, confirming seamless performance on desktops and mobiles.

    Game Providers

    Quality depends on providers. 7Bit partners with industry leaders like NetEnt (known for Starburst), Microgaming (Mega Moolah), Betsoft (3D slots), and Evolution Gaming (live dealer excellence).

We verified that all games undergo regular testing for RNG integrity, reinforcing 7Bit’s status as a best-rated online casino.

Fiat options include Visa, Mastercard, Skrill, and Neteller, with instant deposits and 1-3 day withdrawals. Bank transfers, while slower (3-5 days), cater to traditional players. We tested transaction speeds and confirmed no hidden fees, with minimums at $10 or 0.0005 BTC and a $4,000 withdrawal cap (Cryptovantage).

    Responsible Gambling at 7Bit Casino

    As a best casino online, 7Bit Casino prioritizes player safety with a robust suite of responsible gambling tools to prevent problematic behavior and promote healthy gaming habits.

    • Deposit Limits: Players can set daily, weekly, or monthly caps on deposits to manage spending. This tool helps budget-conscious players avoid overspending, ensuring gambling remains enjoyable.
    • Loss Limits: Loss limits restrict the amount players can lose over a set period (e.g., daily or weekly). Once reached, play is paused until the period resets, preventing chasing losses.
    • Wagering Limits: These cap total bets within a timeframe, helping players control risk and maintain disciplined gambling habits, especially during high-stake sessions.
    • Session Time Limits: Players can limit playtime per session. When the limit is reached, they’re logged out, encouraging breaks and balancing gaming with other activities.
    • Cooling-Off Periods: Temporary account suspensions (24 hours to months) allow players to step back from gambling, ideal for those needing a break to reassess habits.
    • Reality Checks: Pop-up notifications alert players to their session duration (e.g., every 30 minutes), fostering awareness and prompting breaks to avoid excessive play.

    These measures make 7Bit the best online casino for player welfare.

    VIP Program at 7Bit Casino

    7Bit Casino’s 12-level VIP program rewards loyalty with Comp Points (CPs) earned at a rate of 1 CP per $12.5 wagered on real-money bets (Wisergamblers). Progression through levels unlocks escalating benefits, enhancing the best online casino experience.

    • Earning CPs: Every real-money bet contributes to CPs, tracked in the player’s account. Slots typically earn CPs faster than table games due to higher house edges.
    • Level Benefits:
      • Levels 1-3: 10-50 free spins on select slots (e.g., Starburst).
      • Levels 4-6: $10-$50 cash bonuses with 30x wagering.
      • Levels 7-9: 10-15% cashback and exclusive tournament access.
      • Levels 10-12: Personalized offers, priority withdrawals (under 10 minutes), and dedicated account managers.
    • Additional Perks: Higher levels offer birthday bonuses, higher withdrawal limits, and invitations to VIP-only events.

    The program’s transparency and tangible rewards make 7Bit the best casino site choice for loyal players seeking long-term value.

    Tournaments and Competitions

    7Bit Casino keeps excitement high with regular tournaments, offering players chances to win cash, free spins, and crypto prizes.

    • Daily Drop Tournaments: Held daily with 0.5-1 BTC prize pools, these focus on specific slots or table games. Players earn points based on wins or bets, with top leaderboard finishers (e.g., top 10) sharing prizes. Example: A slot tournament on Book of Dead might award 100 free spins to the winner.
    • Special Event Tournaments: Tied to holidays or milestones, these feature larger pools (up to 10 BTC). Themes like “Christmas Jackpot” or “Summer Spin Fest” include curated game lists, with prizes for top 50 players. Participation requires playing qualifying games during the event period.
    • How to Join: Opt-in via the tournaments page, play eligible games, and track progress on real-time leaderboards. No entry fees apply, making it accessible.

    Peter Von Lehe, Managing Director and Head of Investment Solutions & Strategy at Neuberger Berman commented:

    “NBPE ended 2024 with net assets of $1.3 billion, reflecting a NAV per share of $27.53 and a total NAV return of 1.5% for the year. This performance was driven by the strong operating performance of our private investment portfolio, which grew in value by 6.9% on a constant currency basis. However, these gains were partially offset by the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations and public holdings. Despite a more challenging environment for private equity exits, NBPE delivered solid realisations in 2024, generating $179 million in proceeds – equivalent to 14% of the portfolio’s opening fair value.

    NBPE ended the year in a strong financial position with $283 million of available liquidity and an investment level of 102%, which is at the lower end of the long-term target investment level range of 100-110%.”

    Paul Daggett, Managing Director of Neuberger Berman, continued:

    “Overall, the underlying portfolio of private companies continued to perform well, reporting a weighted average LTM revenue and EBITDA growth1 of 8.0% and 13.1%, respectively. It is encouraging to see that the four new investments made in 2024 are off to a good start, being valued at a 1.1x gross multiple of capital and generating a 22% IRR on a combined basis as of 31 December 2024.

    Despite recent market volatility and uncertainty, we remain confident that NBPE is well-positioned to perform across a range of economic scenarios. The portfolio remains well-diversified across our two key themes, and we believe it is well-positioned to continue to deliver growth over the long term.”

  • MIL-OSI: Exosens delivers strong revenue growth in Q1 2025 in a dynamic defense market environment; Fully on track to 2025 guidance

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    EXOSENS DELIVERS STRONG REVENUE GROWTH IN Q1 2025 IN A DYNAMIC DEFENSE MARKET ENVIRONMENT

    FULLY ON TRACK TO 2025 GUIDANCE

    HIGHLIGHTS

    • Sustained revenue growth of +21.1% to €104.9m in Q1 2025, reflecting strong like-for-like performance (+18.0%)
      • Continued strong growth in Amplification revenue (+29.1% vs. Q1 2024), driven by a growing demand of image intensifier tubes for Defense night vision applications from NATO and Tier-1 allies forces
      • Detection & Imaging revenue slightly down (-1.0% vs. Q1 2024), affected by temporary headwinds mostly related to Telops, the Group’s imaging systems business in Canada (+16% growth vs. Q1 2024 excluding Telops). Growth is expected to resume and accelerate throughout the remainder of the year supported by solid underlying end-market trends
    • Adjusted gross margin up +28.1% to €52.6m in Q1 2025 (margin rate of 50.1%, +270bps vs. Q1 2024), mainly driven by strong Amplification growth (+39.5%)
    • Closing of Noxant acquisition, reinforcing Exosens’ position in high-performance cooled infrared imaging, particularly in fast growing Defense and Surveillance markets

    OUTLOOK

    • Fully on track to deliver on 2025 guidance: continued strong performance expected, with revenue growth in the high-teens and adjusted EBITDA growth in the low twenties

    Mérignac (France), 28 April 2025 – Exosens (EXENS; FR001400Q9V2), a high-tech company focused on providing mission and performance-critical amplification, detection and imaging technologies, today publishes its revenue and adjusted gross margin for the first quarter of 2025.

    “After a very successful 2024, which marked a turning point in our trajectory and saw us exceed our IPO guidance, we are proud to start 2025 with a strong Q1 performance, confirming the positive momentum across our core markets. Regarding our Defense-related activities, demand remains high amid increasing geopolitical tensions and sustained investment from NATO countries and Tier-1 allies. This solid start of the year demonstrates the strength of our positioning and our ability to execute. Amplification continues to be a key growth engine, supported by accelerating demand and increased capacity, while our Detection & Imaging segment is on track to deliver solid like-for-like growth, progressively improving over the course of the year.

    Supported by strong fundamentals , and solid operational performance, we are fully confident in our ability to deliver our 2025 objectives and continue creating long-term value for all stakeholders.” commented Jérôme Cerisier, CEO of Exosens.

    Strong revenue performance in Q1 2025 in a dynamic defense market environment

      Q1 2024 Q1 2025 Change Like-for-like
      In €m In €m In €m In % In %
    Amplification 63.3 81.7 +18.4 +29.1% +29.3%
    Detection & Imaging 24.2 24.0 (0.2) (1.0)% (13.0)%
    Eliminations & Other (0.8) (0.7) +0.1 n/a n/a
    Total revenue 86.7 104.9 +18.3 +21.1% +18.0%

    Exosens delivered strong revenue performance in Q1 2025, demonstrating its ability to continue its sustained growth trajectory. Consolidated revenue amounted to €104.9 million, which represented a growth of +21.1% (+€18.3 million) compared to Q1 2024. On a like-for-like basis, revenue grew by +18.0% year-over-year, driven by continued strong momentum in Defense end-markets.

    Amplification revenue amounted to €81.7 million in Q1 2025, marking a significant growth of +29.1% (+€18.4 million) compared to Q1 2024, reflecting higher sales volumes due to increased production capacity and growing demand of image intensifier tubes for Defense night vision applications.

    Reflecting this dynamic market environment, Exosens has continued benefiting from its position as the strategic supplier of NATO and Tier-1 allies, which have continued to ramp up their procurement of night vision systems on the back of the need for armies to enhance their night fighting capabilities. This positive trend was particularly noticeable in Europe with a number of major business wins, notably in Eastern and Northern Europe.

    Detection and Imaging revenue amounted to €24.0 million in Q1 2025, representing a small decline of -1.0% compared to Q1 2024. The first semester revenue contribution for Detection & Imaging is typically lower due to seasonality. On a like-for-like basis, D&I revenue was down -13.0% (-€3.1 million), mainly due to Telops, the Group’s Canadian-based imaging system business. Telops was temporarily impacted by US tariff uncertainties and reductions in federal science funding, which resulted in softer demand from US customers, as well as by delays in securing certain export licenses. Excluding Telops, D&I revenue grew by around +16% year-over-year and was broadly stable on a like-for-like basis.

    Exosens continued to see robust demand across its key high-growth markets, particularly in Nuclear and Defense & Surveillance.

    The Group expects D&I like-for-like growth to resume and accelerate throughout the remainder of the 2025 fiscal year, supported by solid underlying end-market trends.

    On the M&A front, Exosens closed on 13thMarch 2025 the acquisition of Noxant, a specialist in high-performance cooled infrared cameras. Noxant’s range of high-performance MWIR cooled camera cores provides complementary capabilities that meet the increasing demand for advanced infrared solutions, particularly for drone-based Defense and Surveillance applications where camera integration is required. Meaningful synergies are expected with Exosens’ imaging business leveraging its technologies portfolio and worldwide commercial reach.

    The Group has started Noxant’s integration process, which is expected to be finalized by end-June. Q1 2025 revenue and adjusted gross margin do not include any contribution from this acquisition.

    Otherwise, the closing of the acquisition of NVLS, a specialist in man-portable night vision and thermal devices, is expected to occur during Q2 2025, pending customary clearances and approvals.

    Adjusted gross margin up +28.1% in Q1 2025

      Q1 2024 Q1 2025 Change
      In €m % of sales In €m % of sales In €m In %
    Amplification 29.2 46.2% 40.8 49.9% +11.6 +39.5%
    Detection & Imaging 11.8 48.9% 11.8 49.3% (0.0) (0.1)%
    Eliminations & Other 0.0 n/a 0.0 n/a n/a n/a
    Adjusted gross margin 41.1 47.4% 52.6 50.1% +11.5 +28.1%

    Exosens recorded a strong increase in adjusted gross margin at Group level, mainly driven by higher sales volumes, improved yields and favorable product mix. The Group’s adjusted gross margin stood at €52.6 million in Q1 2025, reflecting a growth of +28.1% (+€11.5 million) compared to Q1 2024. As a percentage of consolidated revenue, adjusted gross margin was 50.1% in Q1 2025, representing an improvement of 270 basis points year-on-year.

    Adjusted gross margin for the Amplification segment reached €40.8 million in Q1 2025, recording a growth of +39.5% (+€11.6 million) compared to Q1 2024. Margin rate increased by 370 basis points to 49.9% in Q1 2025, driven by the strong growth in sales volume with increased production capacity, improved yields and favorable product mix.

    Adjusted gross margin for the Detection and Imaging segment amounted to €11.8 million in Q1 2025, stable compared to Q1 2024. Margin rate improved by 50 basis points to 49.3% in Q1 2025, despite lower revenue, driven by better yields, effective cost control, and supply chain synergies.

    Evolution of corporate governance

    The Board of Directors of Exosens, at its meeting on 25 April 25, proposed to the upcoming annual combined General Meeting on 23 May to appoint Bpifrance Investissement as a director.

    This nomination of Bpifrance Investissement, represented by Ms. Dorianne Bonfils as permanent representative, for a seat on the Board of Directors is aligned with Bpifrance Participations’ increased investment in Exosens’ share capital.

    Following the exercise of the call option on Exosens shares granted by HLD as part of Exosens’ IPO, Bpifrance Participations acquired an additional 2.7% stake in the share capital and voting rights on 25 April 2025 and now ranks as Exosens’ second-largest shareholder, holding 7.2% of the share capital and voting rights, behind the HLD Group.

    At its meeting on 25 April 2025, the Board of Directors, following the recommendation of Exosens’ Nominations and Compensation Committee, and after evaluating its independence according to the AFEP-MEDEF code criteria, confirmed Bpifrance Investissement’s status as an independent director, should it be appointed by the Company’s General Meeting.

    Outlook for 2025 and the 2024-2026 period confirmed

    Exosens expects a continued strong performance in 2025, with revenue growth in the high-teens and adjusted EBITDA growth in the low twenties compared to 2024.

    The Group expects a high-teens 2024-2026 adjusted EBITDA CAGR and a cash conversion1ratio in the range of 70%-75% over the period, taking into account capacity investment in Europe and in the US.

    Furthermore, the Group intends to pursue its growth strategy, at a pace consistent with historical trend, while maintaining a leverage ratio2of around 2x.

    APPENDIX

    Definitions

    Like-for-like growth is the revenue growth achieved by the Group excluding currency impact and scope effect, which corresponds to the revenue recorded during period “n” by all the companies included in the Group’s scope of consolidation at the end of period “n-1” (excluding any contribution from the companies acquired after the end of period “n-1”), compared with revenue achieved during period “n-1” by the same companies. Like-for-like growth for the first quarter of 2025 therefore excludes the contribution of Centronic and LR Tech, acquired by the Group in July 2024 and September 2024, respectively.

    Adjusted gross margin is equal to the difference between the selling price and the cost price of products and services (including notably employee benefits).

    Adjusted EBITDA is defined as operating profit, less (i) additions net of reversals to depreciation, amortization and impairment of non-current assets; (ii) non-recurring income and expenses as presented in the Group’s consolidated income statement within “Other income” and “Other expenses”, and (iii) the impact of items that do not reflect ordinary operating performance (in particular business reorganization and adaption costs, costs relating to acquisition and external growth transactions, as well as the IFRS 2 share-based payment expense).

    Cash conversion is calculated as follows: (adjusted EBITDA – capitalized research and development costs – capital expenditure) / adjusted EBITDA – capitalized research and development costs).

    Leverage ratio is calculated as net debt / adjusted EBITDA as defined in the Group’s Senior Credit Facilities Agreement entered into as part of the refinancing executed in the frame of the IPO.

    License And Security At JACKBIT – Ensuring A Safe Gaming Environment

    When choosing the best online casino UK, security is paramount, especially for UK players accustomed to the stringent standards of the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC). JACKBIT operates under a reputable Curacao Gaming License, a well-established authority in the global online gambling industry. This license mandates adherence to international standards for fairness, transparency, and player protection, ensuring a regulated environment that UK players can trust.

    The Curacao eGaming authority, one of the oldest licensing bodies, requires casinos to implement robust security measures. JACKBIT employs state-of-the-art SSL encryption to safeguard all data transmitted between players and the platform, protecting sensitive information like financial details and personal data from unauthorized access. This level of encryption is comparable to that used by major financial institutions, providing peace of mind for UK players.

    A standout feature for crypto enthusiasts is JACKBIT’s provably fair games, which allow players to independently verify the fairness of game outcomes using blockchain technology. This transparency is particularly appealing to those who prioritize trust and want assurance that games are not manipulated. Regular audits by third-party agencies further ensure compliance with fair gaming standards, reinforcing JACKBIT’s credibility.

    While JACKBIT is not UKGC-licensed, its Curacao license is widely recognized, and many reputable UK casino sites operate under similar offshore jurisdictions.

Kim. “We need all hands-on deck to combat this housing crisis, which is why I appreciate local community leaders from public and private sectors for joining me for a productive roundtable discussion on how we can create more affordable housing options and help families struggling to make ends meet.”

    Kim represents California’s 40th District, covering portions of Orange, San Bernardino, and Riverside Counties. She serves on the House Financial Services Committee and the House Foreign Affairs Committee, and is a strong advocate for economic development, financial literacy, and regulatory frameworks that support growth. She also co-chairs the Women in STEM Caucus and the Maternity Care Caucus. Through her partnership with FHLBank San Francisco and its member financial institutions, Kim is advancing practical solutions to support her constituents and strengthen the Southern California business community.

    “Housing availability at all levels is fundamental to OCBC’s mission of advancing economic development in Orange County,” said OCBC President and CEO Jeff Ball. “We are fortunate to have leaders like Congresswoman Kim who understand that expanding our housing supply is essential to sustaining the region’s growth and quality of life. By supporting increased housing options, we can ensure that our workforce has the opportunity to live closer to their jobs. Congresswoman Kim has been a steadfast advocate for Orange County, and we look forward to continuing our partnership with her.”

    FHLBank San Francisco has joined public officials at 10 roundtables over the past year as part of its mission-driven focus to partner with its member financial institutions, housing developers and community stakeholders to foster economic growth and resilience across communities.

    “Today’s conversation with Congresswoman Kim and regional leaders underscores the urgent need for collaborative, cross-sector action,” said Joe Amato, interim president and chief executive officer of FHLBank San Francisco. “The aftermath of recent Southern California wildfires has only deepened the housing challenges in this region. We’re committed to working alongside our members and community partners to increase access to affordable housing, expand financial literacy, and support economic opportunity throughout Arizona, California, and Nevada.”
