About Us - Social Investment Scotland

SiS LogoSocial Investment Scotland (SIS) has been appointed by the Scottish Government to be the lead delivery partner of the Scottish Investment Fund.

Social Investment Scotland (SIS) is a social business that provides investments via loan finance in other social businesses that have the capability to make sustainable social impacts. Aside from managing the Scottish Investment Fund, we provide loan finance from £10,000 to £250,000 aimed at community enterprises and social businesses that might find access to finance from mainstream providers difficult. At SIS we recognise that this may be the first time that you have considered or applied for loan finance and we want to ensure that the process is as simple and at straightforward as possible.

A dedicated Scottish Investment Fund team within Social Investment Scotland are always on hand to assist with any aspect of your application or if you have any questions about eligibility. Full contact details for the team are held here
