IV. Proposed Judges; Proposed
Evaluation Criteria
The CDFI Fund expects that the
judges for the proposed FY 2016 CDFI
Prize Competition will include staff of
the CDFI Fund, the Department of the
Treasury, and other Federal government
agencies, as well as certain members of
the public who are qualified and
experienced in community and
economic development in rural areas.
The experience of proposed judges will
be reviewed to determine whether there
are any conflicts of interest with
applicants.
The CDFI Fund is considering
whether application evaluation criteria
will include, but not be limited to, the
following:
A. The depth of need for investment
capital and the lack of access to such
capital within the Target Market;
B. The potential to leverage private,
public, and philanthropic capital,
including matching funds, if any, for the
prize purse;
C. Alignment of the proposed capacity
building plan with the expertise of the
applicant;
D. If applicable, the complementarity
of the proposed partnership(s) and the
potential it holds for building scale and/
or deepening the capacity of CDFIs;
E. The degree of innovation applied to
resolving the problem; and
F. The proposed design of the
evaluation and the likelihood that it has
yielded or will yield meaningful
insights into the effectiveness of the
solution.
V. Questions for Public Comment:
Through this RFI, the CDFI Fund invites
comments and responses to the
following questions regarding the abovedescribed proposed FY 2016 CDFI Prize
Competition:
A. Is the proposed topic of the
proposed FY 2016 CDFI Prize
Competition appropriate and clearly
stated?
B. Has the CDFI Fund adequately
described the goals, structure and
submission requirements for the
proposed FY 2016 CDFI Prize
Competition?
C. Do you feel that the proposed FY
2016 CDFI Prize Competition will
encourage innovative approaches,
which might not surface otherwise, to
build the capacity of CDFIs to invest in
underserved rural areas, including those
that are characterized by persistent
poverty?
D. As proposed, would the prize(s)
enable new partnerships to increase

access to capital in underserved rural
areas?
E. Are the proposed prize amounts
(approximately $250,000 per award)
appropriate? Are there other incentives,
in addition to the proposed monetary
prize, such as convening the winners to
share best practices that might be
valuable to include as part of the
proposed prize competition?
F. Are the proposed application
requirements sufficient in detail for the
scope of the proposed prize?
G. Are the proposed proposal
evaluation criteria appropriate and
sufficient in detail for this prize?
H. Do you feel that the proposed
timeline and milestones are
appropriate?
I. Do you have any further suggestions
on how to improve the topic, eligibility
and submission requirements, and
evaluation criteria for the proposed FY
2016 CDFI Prize Competition?
J. Please indicate if your organization
has interest in competing in the

Competition, if it is convened. If not,
why not?
