Mobilising local and institutional capital: Community Municipal Investments
Aligning public and private investment to empower communities, drive local growth, and deliver Net Zero ambitions.
Community Municipal Investments (CMIs) are a growing innovation in place-based finance. They enable local authorities to raise finance directly from residents and institutions, providing low-cost finance while engaging communities in the development of place and the Net Zero transition.
Since the first issuance in 2020, sixteen councils have launched 24 offers, raising over £18 million.
This report provides public bodies and investors with insights and examples of how CMIs can be used to diversify local authorities’ funding sources and strengthen trust between councils and communities.
