CIF Benefits

A renewed effort is being made to revisit the enfranchisement process for Barbadians. The existing investment vehicles have shown not to encourage investments by small potential investors. The Co-operative Investment Fund addresses that shortfall.

Individual Benefits
  • Greater Return on Investment
  • No Fees Levied on Investments
  • Decision-making Opportunities
  • Economic Enfranchisement
Group Benefits
  • Increased Revenues
  • Reduced Risk via Pooling
  • Greater Group Cohesiveness
  • Economic Democracy

St. Stephen’s Credit Union as well as Prudential Credit Union have already set up CIF accounts for their members and are already collecting thousands of dollars to be transferred to the main Co-operative Investment Fund.
