Abstract

Social Impact Bonds (SIBs), a form of impact investing, were first introduced in 2010 and enable investors to finance innovative projects to create a measurable social benefit. If the project is successful, investors are paid principal plus an agreed-upon return. This paper summarizes the current state of these bonds and concludes with a Christian perspective.
