Loan finance
There has been a recent growth in the development and use of loan finance for revenue. E.g Charity Bank plans to double in size by 2012 in response to demand. There is an increasing policy focus on developing a more mature market place to ‘finance’ rather than, ‘fund’ the sector and support further growth. (See social investment). This emerging marketplace is characterised by a group of intermediaries and suppliers of finance VCS (e.g high street banks and providers) who are seeking to facilitate or support the marketplace, either by providing or brokering finance or ‘business information’. Their belief is that financial capital can, and should be recycled (i.e used again through the use of loan finance) as they believe this is critical to an effectively functioning market. However, the VCS in general, remains sceptical of loan finance as a financial tool.
