Social Investment Scotland

Social Investment Scotland's (SIS Group) mission is to connect capital to communities making a real, measurable, and sustainable difference to people’s lives. Its aim is to build an impact economy. 

The capital that SIS Group connects is not just financial, and through investment funds – it's also human, social, and intellectual capital that we convene and share with charities, social enterprises, and businesses that have a social mission at their heart. 

Through loan funding, SIS Group has invested £150 million in more than 550 impact-aligned enterprises and supported over 5,000 social entrepreneurs to sustainably grow their social impact. It seeks to encourage social and impact-led entrepreneurship through collaboratively working to share knowledge, skills, and resources.
