Amidst an epic economic recession and state budget shortfalls, Treasurer McCord netted historic investment returns of 13.5% at a time when other state treasurers were seeking the safety of Treasury bills. Treasurer McCord also focused on developing programs to improve the economic security of Pennsylvanians, including help with college savings, retirement security, unclaimed property, resources for residential energy efficiency improvements, alternatives to predatory payday lending schemes, and help for women entrepreneurs.
