On 11 February 2021, the Lab hosted an online workshop to share insights and generate new ideas for growing and strengthening the UK’s purpose-driven banking sector. The workshop followed the publication of our discussion paper Barriers to Growing the Purpose-Driven Banking Sector in the UK.
Leaders in purpose-driven banking (working across credit unions, CDFIs, building societies, mutual banks and ethical banks) joined us to explore the barriers to the sector’s growth, and opportunities to collaborate to overcome them.
A blog summarising the discussion and next steps will be published soon.
