Inclusive
Finance offers an efficient service to organisations endeavouring
to support people who are excluded from conventional forms
of finance.
What
we can offer
IFcic operates as a focal point for Business Links, Enterprise
Gateways, Government offices and other brokerage organisations
wishing to connect individuals wanting to start-up a business
to a suitable Community Development Finance Institution (CDFI)
(link to CDFI Members) or fund provider. CDFIs provide micro
enterprise loans or other appropriate loan services to individuals
who meet the CDFI funding criteria.
Through CDFIs individuals who are endeavouring to improve
their lives can gain business ready skills, funding and business
resources to secure or create sustainable, productive employment.
IFcic is a Community Interest Company (CIC) which does not
seek to make a profit and sits between a charity structure
and a limited company. CICs aim to improve the lives of individuals
and benefit the community at large.
