About Shared Interest Society

We are an ethical finance organisation which lends to businesses in the developing world to help people improve their livelihoods.

Shared Interest Society Description

Our members share our vision of a world where justice is at the heart of trade finance.

We form the vital link between UK social investors and fair trade organisations needing finance to improve their livelihoods.

Investing in Shared Interest is easy. Anyone over the age of 16 with a UK bank account can open a Share Account for as little as £100.

This money is loaned and re-loaned to provide fair finance to farmers and handcraft producers across the globe.

Really enjoyed reading this article from World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO) featuring Shared Interest Society customer Allpa Perú.
"As a woman, and as the leader of a Fair Trade Enterprise, one of the principles that I most cherish is NO DISCRIMINATION OF ANY KIND." http://bit.ly/2VcdA4X

This is Mary, a Kenyan handcrafter and mother. She works for a Maasai women's co-operative in the Ngong area of Kenya. Before the group existed there was no real role for women in the community. Most women could not read or write, but wished to use the skills and abilities they had to care for their children and the community around them.
"We want to say thank you to the hand that gives. We have received blessings from the labour of our hands and know there will be opportunities for more groups to be blessed through Shared Interest. Looking forward, we hope to continue to grow our group and pass it on to our children." https://lght.ly/02ok9ea
