So far, the fund’s investments have been a catalyst for creating at least 19,000 jobs, according to 50 South Capital, a Northern Trust subsidiary that administers the program for our office.

By that group’s metric, our investments have resulted in 36,000 indirect jobs through suppliers and service providers.
