NACA Press Releases
Bruce Marks is the founder of NACA and has been the CEO for over twenty years. The press clips reflect his commitment and determination. Under his leadership, NACA has defeated many of the most powerful bankers and lenders in the country. As is clear from the clips, he is committed to changing how lending for low and moderate income people is done in this country. He is well respected, feared by some, but to all he has become a force to be reckoned with.
