Market building

Market building

Big Society Capital’s overall purpose is to help build an investment ecosystem that supports enterprises to improve people’s lives. We do this both through investing our own capital in ways that bring in other co-investors and also through wider market building activities. These involve building awareness and understanding of social impact investment among investors of all kinds, as well as among social enterprises and charities that could use repayable finance.

Our approach to market building is through education and partnership, with a long-term goal of building a movement of people and organisations who use social impact investment to improve lives.
