The Sustainability of Community Development Finance Institutions
Commissioned by the British Business Bank, PwC considers the sustainability of CDFIs in the UK today (December 2015)
British Business Bank commissioned PwC to undertake an in-depth study of CDFIs in the UK and their sustainability. It finds that CDFIs represent a broad and diverse range of financial providers, and this in turn creates a mixed picture on sustainability. It explores the CDFI business model, the funding environment and the limits of available data for robust data amongst other areas. Finally, it makes a number of recommendations on how CDFIs can improve their sustainability.
