Description

Ambitious public sector commissioners, highly motivated social entrepreneurs, fresh private capital and robust impact measurement: Social Impact Bonds bring about unlikely partnerships aimed at solving deep-seated social problems. But despite good results, the approach is struggling to take off in Germany. Drawing on two pilot projects and a number of feasibility studies, we analyze the purpose, added value and current limits of an innovative idea.
