Task force for a European Social Investment Facility

Fiscal consolidation within the European Union means that a stronger social economy is required to deliver what the state can no longer do. A stronger and better integrated Europe-wide social investment market is needed to attract more private capital. Euclid Network and FEBEA (Fédération Européenne de Finances et Banques Ethiques et Alternatives) have therefore assembled a task force for a European Social Investment Facility (ESIF) to explore how the European Commission can most effectively use its limited financial resources to support social investment.
