Responsible Finance is working to create access to finance for citizens and enterprises who are not well served by the current big retail banking regime. In the context of reducing public funds this work is of real importance to citizens, communities, coops and social enterprises.

Wednesday 12th October 2016 From 5.30 – 7.00pm Venue – Senedd, Cardiff Bay
Responsible Finance want to introduce you to the finance providers in Wales that are driving growth and prosperity in all local economies. They are celebrating a new horizon in the development of the fair, responsible finance industry and a new exciting ambition to bring affordable and trusted loans to the people, places and businesses of Wales.
Responsible Finance is the new name for the Community Development Finance Association (CDFA). Their members are delivering vital finance to those who cannot access mainstream services. Last year they contributed £0.5billion to the UK economy, and had a major impact on the lives of tens of thousands of consumers and entrepreneurs.
Responsible finance is an approach that offers unique social and economic benefits to some of the most deprived regions. Their launch will provide an opportunity to meet some of those who have been able to start or grow their business thanks to responsible finance, as well as those who are providing that support where it is most needed.
