FINANCIAL SERVICES: Metro Denver and Northern Colorado Industry Cluster Profile
Industry Overview
The nine-county Metro Denver and Northern Colorado region1 is the major financial center between Los Angeles and Chicago. Downtown Denver's financial district along 17th Street is known as the "Wall Street of the West." The region is one of the few areas outside of the northeast with a substantial financial services industry in three subclusters: (1) banking and finance, (2) investments, and (3) insurance. The banking and finance subcluster is comprised of transaction-oriented companies including commercial banks and credit unions, lenders, credit agencies, and mortgage bankers. The investments subcluster includes companies involved in securities and commodities trade, real estate investment trusts (REITS), and portfolio management. The insurance subcluster consists of insurance carriers and brokerages.
Denver is home to a branch of the Federal Reserve Bank and is the location of one of only six U.S. Mints. The Denver Mint manufactures all denominations of circulating coins, coin dies, the Denver "D" portion of the annual uncirculated coin sets, and commemorative coins authorized by the U.S. Congress. The Denver Mint stores gold and silver bullion and produced nearly 5.8 billion coins in 2013. Circulating coin production at the Denver Mint reached nearly 6 billion in 2014, a record that has not been reached since the Great Recession.
A variety of trade associations and service firms support the region's diverse financial services industry base of nearly 13,400 companies and about 94,800 employees. The Colorado Bankers Association is a key industry partner () representing all Colorado banks and provides government relations, community relations, educational and training services, and bank insurance. The Colorado Association of Mortgage Professionals () is another nonprofit trade group representing Colorado's financing professionals specializing in origination of residential and commercial mortgages and offers professional development opportunities and member certification support. The Metro Denver Economic Development Corporation (Metro Denver EDC) formed the Colorado Investment Services Coalition in 2014, which is an advocacy group for Colorado's large employers in financial management and advisory services. The Coalition is working with universities to develop the talent pipeline for the financial services companies expanding in the region, and will provide a public policy voice on issues of common interest.
