Good Deals 2009: the Social Investment Almanack has just been published by Social Enterprise magazine in the UK. This is an excellent publication that goes some way towards demonstrating the maturity of the UK social finance space, at least compared to other countries (including Canada). As Angela Smith, the Minister for the Third Sector notes in the document, this work represents ” an unprecedented collection of think pieces and case studies that aims to build knowledge and inspiration among those operating in the social investment space as well as those looking in with curiosity from the outside.”

From the introduction:

As a UK publication focused solely on social investment, it is the first of its kind. The four chapters introduce the social investment marketplace and run through models that are well established, just taking off and those that are in the laboratory stage.

Our directory - the back section of the Almanack - brings this community together with feature profiles and alphabetical listings of names and contact details, providing a useful index of a range organisations involved in the supply, support and debate around this market.
