Advocacy. Development. Education.

Harnesing the financial resources of Barbadians from all walks of life.

The Co-Operative Investment Fund was created by a consortium of co-operative organizations in Barbados. Its main intention is to harness the financial resources of Barbadians from all walks of life and from all regions of the world with the expressed purpose of transforming the economy of Barbados and providing a significant boost to economic activity on the island.

It is intended to introduce a new approach to investing by providing the opportunity to all Barbadians to make a contribution to investing activities on the island.

By investing BDS$100 each, 60,000 Barbadians would see an investment pool of BDS$6,000,000 being created immediately. If this action is repeated for only 6 months the pool would reach BDS$36,000,000.

Contributions can be made by members of co-operatives, co-operative business organizations and the general public (through membership in the CIF). Funds invested will be used for the following purposes:

In a commercial equity portfolio

In divested state-owned entities

In Co-Op business organisations
