Investment principles
Our products are designed to attract investment into housing and regeneration across a broad range of formats, tenures and regions. They work as targeted interventions to unlock new investment, while earning an appropriate risk-adjusted return.
This platform will build on existing programmes from the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG):
- Affordable Homes Guarantee Scheme 2020 — this provides low‑cost, flexible loans to Registered Providers to deliver new affordable homes and improve existing stock
- Private Rented Sector Housing Guarantee Scheme — this offers guaranteed lending to support the purpose‑built private rental sector
Through these programmes, we widen access to competitively priced finance and improve certainty for organisations looking to expand their housing pipelines.
