- Social Impact Bonds in South Africa0.97 MB
Social impact bonds (SIBs) are seen by many as carrying the potential to revolutionise the way that some social services are governed, delivered, and financed.
The first two SIBs in South Africa were launched in 2018: the Inclusive Youth Employment Pay For Performance Platform (also known as Bonds4Jobs, or B4J), and the Impact Bond Innovation Fund (IBIF). In this report, we provide an overview of the financial and social performance of these two SIBS, and assess whether the hype is justified.
Are SIBs the golden ticket to better social services and to better collaboration between the public and private sectors? And what does the experience in South Africa imply for the future of SIBs, in South Africa and elsewhere?
