Merseyside Special Investment Fund

Merseyside Special Investment Fund (MSIF) has launched new series of funds, which will benefit more than 1,000 businesses and create 7,500 jobs in the region. A further 5,200 jobs will be saved and £150m of private sector money will be levered into the area on the back of the new funds. Investors in the initiative include Barclays (£22m), Merseyside Pension Fund (£22m) and Objective One (£36m). Businesses operating in, or relocating to Merseyside may now apply for loans and equity packages, which will be administered through three main funds: the Small Firms Fund (£20m), which will invest £3,000-75,000, the Mezzanine Fund (£20m), which will commit £75,000-600,000, and the Venture Fund (£40m), which will make investments of £250,000-1.25m.
