Investment thesis
The British Business Bank is a UK government-backed institution focused on improving smaller businesses' access to finance so they can start, scale, and remain in the UK. Rather than investing directly across sectors, it operates through partners and accredited lenders and delivers government-backed programmes such as Start Up Loans, the Growth Guarantee Scheme, and the Community Enable Funding Programme supporting CDFIs. It also produces research and data to inform policy and support a stronger, more inclusive finance market. The bank reports significant economic impact, including billions in finance delivered and hundreds of thousands of jobs expected.
