Abstract
The article analyzes the mechanism of creation and functioning of social impact bonds. In the process of implementing social programs with the participation of the state, there is an urgent need to find and attract capital assets. However, not all financial instruments that exist on the market are able to provide the set goals precisely in the long-term perspective of achieving social effects. For this purpose, such a new financial instrument as a social impact bond is proposed. Due to its simplicity and convenience, this type of bond provides benefits both for socially vulnerable segments of the population and for investors who aim to be socially significant and responsible in society. At the same time, the effectiveness of the use of investment capital in this case will depend on the level of social effect, which must be measured and evaluated. The use of social impact bonds and their results have been confirmed by the experience of many countries around the world.
