Event Details
RCB is a pioneering platform, created by Allia, to connect responsible investors with impact borrowers. Operating since 2014, the RCB programme has issued over £300 million of LSE-listed bonds, enabling charities and other social-impact enterprises to access non-bank borrowings. Users of the programme include housing associations, care homes, the Charities Aid Foundation and the Alnwick Garden Trust.
From an investor’s perspective, the RCB programme offer the opportunity to access income-generative assets, typically yielding between 3% and 5%, with the knowledge that the investment is going to organisations that provide a clear social benefit. RCB goes beyond traditional ESG investing offering opportunities to purchase bonds that create real social impact. The funds raised through RCB issues are helping to provide care for the elderly, supported housing for people with a learning disability, affordable homes, places of beauty – and more.
