Launch of Disability Finance Code for Entrepreneurship

The launch of the Disability Finance Code for Entrepreneurship with the first annual report to demonstrate what Code signatories are doing to support entrepreneurs with disabilities.

Today we published our first annual Disability Finance Code for Entrepreneurship report.

This report introduces the Code, capturing the best practices already in place among our key signatories but also highlighting several commitments being made to further widen opportunities for disabled entrepreneurs. These include building on existing work to assess and reevaluate how best to implement inclusive design principles, whilst offering tailored support to customers and employees, regardless of disability.

Our Managing Director of Commercial Finance, David Raw commented:

This report shines a much-needed spotlight on the critical work being done by financial services firms to unlock the full potential of a vital segment of our entrepreneurial community. Aligned with the government’s plan for growth, we are committed to continuing to champion these efforts, working collaboratively to build a future where every entrepreneur, regardless of disability, can realise their ambitions and contribute fully to driving innovation and growing the UK’s economy.
