Raising capital

This depends entirely on you. We first help to determine what kind of capital you need. We then ensure we find the right mix of investors to provide it.

We have unique access to over 6,000 registered users on our investment crowdfunding platform – we’re the only UK bank to offer its own crowdfunding platform. These social investors are keen to make a positive impact with their money, as well as earn a financial return.

Over the last 20 years, we have also developed strong relationships with an increasingly wide range of other investors including:

• Charitable trusts and foundations
• Social investment funds
• Family offices
• Housing associations
• Private banks and wealth managers
• IFAs and financial planners

In recent years, we’ve raised over £150m capital for over 60 impact projects and from a blend of these investors.
