Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, how much loan funding was provided by the British Business Bank by NUTS 1 region in each year since 2013-14.
The British Business Bank provides funds and guarantees to private sector partners, enabling them to finance a greater number of smaller businesses (either through debt or equity).
Additionally the Bank delivers a number of regional funds including Northern Powerhouse Investment Fund and Midlands Engine Investment Fund, and anticipates the launch of Cornwall & Isles of Scilly Fund in Spring 2018. These funds include a mixture of debt and equity funding.
The following tables shows figures for debt programmes for each FY since 2013/14:
