Daily Herald Business Ledger Profiles SomerCor President & CEO


SomerCor President & CEO, Manny Flores, shares insight on leadership and serving the capital needs of the small business community in the February issue of the Daily Herald Business Ledger.

SomerCor was founded by a woman in 1992, a time when the financial services industry had few women C-level executives. Last year, SomerCor became the first CDC in Illinois to be led by a Hispanic Chief Executive Officer. Diversity and inclusion are fundamental elements of SomerCor’s DNA and it provides us a strong guiding force as we seek to serve all communities throughout Illinois. We know that many communities and neighborhoods have few and limited resources — our mission is to help fill and bridge the gap so that entrepreneurs regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, and geography (rural or urban) have access to capital.
