Klappentext

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. On the 18th March 2010, Social Finance announced the launch of the first Social Impact Bond with the Ministry of Justice. This Social Impact Bond will fund social organisations working to reduce the re-offending rates of short sentence male prisoners leaving Peterborough Prison. The Ministry of Justice has agreed to make payments to investors in the event that re-offending is reduced below an agreed threshold. During the Peterborough Prison pilot, experienced social sector organisations, such as St Giles Trust, will provide intensive support to 3, 000 short-term prisoners over a six year period, both inside prison and after release, to help them resettle into the community. If this initiative reduces re-offending by 7.5%, or more, investors will receive from Government a share of the long term savings.
