Millions of individuals, small and medium-size businesses (SMEs), and social enterprises are locked out of access to affordable credit. This holds back individuals and communities by preventing them from fully participating in the economy. The government has the tools to change this. We’re proud to be part of the #FairBankingForAll Campaign, asking for the government to introduce a Fair Banking Act as part of a national financial inclusion strategy. On Monday we’ll be in Parliament, hearing from speakers with lived experience of financial exclusion, as well as speakers from The Finance Innovation Lab, Association of British Credit Unions, Federation of Small Businesses (FSB), Lendology CIC and MoneyMatiX: Inclusive Financial Education. We’ll be discussing how a Fair Banking Act could benefit the UK. www.fairbankingforall.org #FBfACampaign #FairBankingForAll https://lnkd.in/eEkjZBTR Access - The Foundation for Social Investment, APPG on Fair Banking, Fair for You CIC, Financial Inclusion Centre, Financial Inclusion for Scotland, Impact Investing Institute, incuto, Key Fund Investments, Purple Shoots , Social Investment Scotland, Triodos Bank.
