For over nine years Cassa Depositi e Prestiti has been committed to promoting and supporting the development of Private Social Housing, the so-called Social Housing, through a fund of funds, the Investment Fund for Housing (FIA), of which it is the reference investor (with 1 billion euro of capital, equal to around 50% of the total financial endowment), as well as manager through the subsidiary CDP Investimenti SGR. The FIA operates through an Integrated Funds System (SIF): 29 local real estate funds, managed by 8 SGRs, which have as their reference investor the FIA (with shares between 33 and 80% of the total capital) and as co -investors the stakeholders of the territory, first of all the local foundations of banking origin, but also Regions, Provinces, Municipalities, housing cooperatives and private developers. The total resources mobilized by the SIF amount to approximately 3 billion euros (3X multiplier with respect to the investment of CDP), thanks to which the SIF can be considered – worldwide – the third intervention by size
active in the context of impact investing.
The offer of the SIF covers about 20,000 social housing units in addition to beds in temporary and student residences distributed throughout the territory
national. To date, around 220 interventions have been completed or are in progress.
