Concepts such as triple bottom line (environment, social, financial) and SIB (Social Impact Bonds) have become commonplace. The sector is largely known as impact investing with a growing market potential. Its three key components are: supply of capital, demand for capital and intermediaries. Governments by default are chief intermediaries. Non-profit and for-profit businesses exist across a “blended returns” spectrum that are aligned well with traditional financing - when understood. This research project addresses the emerging social finance education challenges and opportunity gaps. It reviews the history (e.g. social economy) where social finance emerged from and observed traditional market shifts to hybrid models consideration. More importantly, it also looks through a social finance education and training lens of shared-value proposition. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.

  • Critical Success Factors, Motivations, and Risks in Social Impact Bonds
    sustainability Article Critical Success Factors, Motivations, and Risks in Social Impact Bonds Rosella Carè 1,* , Francesco Rania 2 and Riccardo De Lisa 1 1 Department of Economics and Business, University of Cagliari, 09124 Cagliari, Italy; [email protected] 2 Department of Law, Economics and Sociology, University Magna Graecia of Catanzaro, 88100 Catanzaro, Italy; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 7 July 2020; Accepted: 25 August 2020; Published: 5 September 2020 Abstract: Social impact bonds (SIBs) have emerged as one of the most innovative financial instruments designed to support the social service sector in the delivery of innovative social programs. Despite the growing interest of academics and practitioners in SIBs, the debate appears polarized around a series of recurrent aspects, and only a limited number of studies have sought to understand the risks and motivations related to similar initiatives. Using an exploratory approach based on a mixed-method grounded theory methodology, this study analyzed the results of 12 questionnaires that asked experts about their experiences and perceptions in SIB project development and implementation. The study identified and assessed three main groups of motivations, critical success factors, and risk factors by focusing on the private-sector SIB actors with the aim of understanding their motivations and their perceived main success drivers and risk factors. This work contributes to the knowledge on the conditions for attracting private sector actors and supporting policymakers in the development of new SIB models. The findings could facilitate the development of risk management practices for the purpose of stimulating the participation of private actors in SIB initiatives.

  • A Guide to Canada Emergency Business Account (CEBA)
    A Guide to Canada Emergency Business Account (CEBA) Overview: Originally launched on April 9, 2020, CEBA is intended to support businesses by providing financing for their expenses that cannot be avoided or deferred as they take steps to safely navigate a period of shutdown, thereby helping to position businesses for successful relaunch when the economy reopens. This $55 billion program provides interest-free loans of up to $40,000 to small businesses and not-for-profits. Repaying the balance of the loan on or before December 31, 2022 will result in loan forgiveness of 25 percent (up to $10,000). As of June 26, 2020, businesses eligible for CEBA now include owner-operated small businesses that do not have a payroll, sole proprietors receiving business income directly, as well as family-owned corporations remunerating in the form of dividends rather than payroll. This means that more small businesses can access it. Applicants with $20,000 or less in payroll in 2019 will have to demonstrate having Eligible Non-Deferrable Expenses between Cdn.$40,000 and Cdn.$1,500,000 in 2020. Expenses are considered “Eligible Non-Deferrable Expenses” if they were already incurred in January and/or February 2020, or are due to a legal or contractual obligation as at March 1 and cannot be avoided or deferred beyond 2020 even during a period of shut down and depressed revenues as a result of COVID. CEBA is not intended to provide income support, or support for variable operating expenses to businesses. CEBA applicants agree that the government may conduct audits to confirm the nature of the expenses applicants use to establish their eligibility for CEBA, and acknowledge that inaccuracies may lead to legal consequences.

(March 2010). Towards a New Social Economy: Blended Value Creation through Social Impact Bonds public costs. Variations of the SIB model exist (Human Capital Performance Bonds, Social Benefit Bonds, and Income Contingency Dividends), but they all share a belief that with investments in innovative, preventative solutions, it is possible to simultaneously improve the lives of vulnerable citizens and create financial savings for governments. The basic SIB model begins when a consortium of stakeholders—private investors, social service agencies, the public sector, and evaluators—agree to work together to achieve a specific, common goal.

Kesselman Senior Supervisor Public Policy Program John Richards Supervisor Public Policy Program Date Approved: March 11, 2011 1 Abstract Social impact bonds (SIBs) are a new method of generating private investment for preventative social programming in the UK. SIBs generate investment from private sources for social programs by issuing a contract that pays returns to investors based on a percentage of the savings received by government as a result of the program outcomes. This paper analyzes the theoretical underpinnings of this concept and attempts to determine applicability in a Canadian context. No previous substantive study of this kind has been performed in a Canadian context. This study undertakes empirical research of potential SIB applications in the form of an employment program for persons with disabilities, a social housing program and a preventative healthcare program for hypertension management.

  • Retail Banks in Canada Losing Touch with Customers As Profits Climb While Satisfaction Declines
    J.D. Power Reports: Retail Banks in Canada Losing Touch with Customers as Profits Climb While Satisfaction Declines TD Canada Trust, for a 10th Consecutive Year, and Tangerine, for a Fourth Consecutive Year, Rank Highest In Customer Satisfaction with Retail Banks in Canada in Their Respective Segments WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif.: 30 July 2015 — While retail banks in Canada have achieved record profits, they may be losing touch with their customers, as satisfaction has declined due to high fees and an actual or perceived reduction in the number of services, according to the J.D. Power 2015 Canadian Retail Banking Satisfaction StudySM released today. The study, now in its 10th year, measures customer satisfaction with retail banks in two segments: Big 5 Banks1 and Midsize Banks. In both segments, customer satisfaction is measured in seven factors (listed in order of importance): product; self-service; personal service; facilities; communication; financial advisor; and problem resolution. Satisfaction is calculated on a 1,000-point scale. Record profits for retail banks in Canada are being achieved at the expense of customer satisfaction as customers report increased fees and reduced levels of service in the branch and on the phone. As a result, overall satisfaction in the Big 5 Banks segment averages 737, down 12 points from 2014, while satisfaction in the Midsize Banks segment is 759, down 7 points. “When a retail bank increases fees and trims back on its core services to customers for the sake of increasing profits, they may be losing touch with one of the most important aspects of their business survival—the customer,” said Jim Miller, senior director of the banking practice at J.D.
