AbstractFunding for animal shelters is often a scarce resource, representing a major challenge affecting many shelter programs in the United States and beyond today. Funding issues and budgetary constraints are often exacerbated by the high rate of animal intake levels relative to adoption rates, the availability of resources to treat medical conditions, and funding for other related programs that may lower euthanasia rates, such as spay and neuter programs. This article proposes an alternative funding option for animal shelter programs using a unique social finance funding model incorporating public-private partnerships and social impact bonds. This social finance model is directly aimed at providing greater funding for animal shelter programs, while also increasing transparency and social impact outcomes. If utilized, the social impact bond model can complement and build upon (but not completely replace) existing funding sources that are critical to saving nonhuman animal lives while benefiting society at large.

This paper focuses on the question of how to enhance corporate governance using public-private partnerships (PPPs) incorporating shared incentives and social finance models towards stakeholder and shareholder value in a post-subprime crisis era? Through the Complexity Science framework, this article argues that the implementation of social finance, generally, and social impact bonds (SIBs), specifically, can represent a viable model to achieve such objective — a model in which value is furthered and potentially maximized between relevant public and/or private sector networks on behalf of both stakeholders and shareholders through the pursuit of an efficient combination of shared incentives

The social impact bond (SIB) is defined as a form of payment-by-results scheme combining governmental payments with private investments. This paper explores the motivations and implications of three third sector organisations (TSOs) participating in SIBs in Continental Europe. It offers an understanding of the involvement of TSOs in this type of scheme; and it shares insights about a context that is different from the United Kingdom and the United States – the Netherlands – which presents the opportunity to expand our knowledge about SIBs.
