  4. Policy Co-construction

  5. Required Tools

  6. Enabling Public Policy • Long-term approach required – social economy is not a short term ‘fix’ • Diversity of sectors needs to be reflected in the diversity of financial support provided • Legislation is necessary, but not sufficient in itself

  7. Access to Capital • Range of different financing tools needed: • Debt, equity and quasi-equity instruments • Government can contribute through: • Credit guarantees • Fiscal incentives for investors • Partnerships

  8. Access to Markets

  9. Working Across Boundaries • The capacity to bring different policy domains together is crucial for coherent policy, including: • Representative organisations and intermediary bodies • Co-ordinated governance • Co-construction of public policy

  10. Training and Research • Social economy staff need appropriate training and skills provision if quality jobs are to be created • Research contributes to the identification and articulation of social economy needs, functions and potential

  11. Conclusions 11 • Social economy has a significant amount to offer local communities: inclusion, cohesion and economic development • It needs a supportive environment to flourish, one underpinned by the co-construction of policy
