Communities Investment Fund (CIF) is a long running fund that has supported dozens of social businesses in Wales to grow through the provision of millions of pounds of social investment loan finance.
Previously an EU funded project, CIF is now in its third iteration and continues to make loans via the funds repaid from the investments made as part of the initial EU funded CIF project.
