want to make the UK the best place to work and grow a business. The Government-owned
British Business Bank’s programmes are supporting more than £7.0bn of finance to over
91,000 SMEs, the majority outside London and the South East. The BBB in collaboration
with ten Local Enterprise Partnerships, combined authorities and growth hubs manages
the £400m Northern Powerhouse Investment Fund (NPIF). By September 2019, NPIF had
invested £135m in over 500 ambitious SMEs across the Northern Powerhouse region, in
deals that have attracted an additional £123m of investment from the private sector.
This support seeks to address the disparity in the availability of finance across
the UK and was further bolstered last autumn, with the launch of the £100m Business
Angel investment programme designed to support clusters of business angels outside
London. The BBB also established a UK-wide network of relationship managers to help
tackle regional imbalances in access to finance.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The number
