Evaluation of the Community Investment Enterprise Facility 2019
This is the First Annual Report of the Evaluation of the Community Investment Enterprise Facility (CIEF) being undertaken by the Centre for Regional Economic and Social Research (CRESR) at Sheffield Hallam University.
CIEF is a £30 million investment facility, established by Big Society Capital and managed by Social Investment Scotland (SIS). It aims to partially meet the capital needs of Community Development Finance Institutions (CDFIs), to build a better understanding of the financial and social impact of CDFI lending, and to test models of funding for CDFIs to attract other mission-driven investors.
