OUR STORY
The current approach to social investment is unbalanced
Evidence shows that people and organisations from Black and Ethnic Minoritised backgrounds:
are less likely to receive investment
are less trusting of the sector
are impacted by a lack of intermediary support
have less access to inclusive funding products
Aware of this urgent need and corroborated by the Adebowale Commission’s report on improving the social investment sector, our founding partners Black Global Trust, The Social Investment Consultancy and Voice4Change England – led by Stephen Bediako OBE, Bonnie Chiu and Kunle Oluade MBE respectively – created Pathway Fund.
As a Black and Ethnic Minoritised-led wholesaler with extensive experience in impact investing, equitable financing, and philanthropy, we believe that the social investment sector, which provides much-needed finance, can be a powerful force to redress wealth inequalities.
