Government-owned business development bank dedicated to making finance markets work better for smaller businesses
About us
The British Business Bank is the UK's economic development bank. Our mission is to drive sustainable growth and prosperity across the UK, and to enable the transition to a net zero economy, by supporting access to finance for smaller businesses. We design, deliver and manage finance programmes for the UK government to increase the supply of finance to smaller businesses. We do not lend directly but work with over 200 delivery partners to address existing gaps in the market. Our programmes were supporting more than 90,000 companies with more than £12.4bn of finance at the end of March 2023. The British Business Bank is not authorised or regulated by the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) or the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
