Sovereign is one of the largest housing associations in the country
Our strategy is to continue to grow, staying financially strong through good governance and performance management so we can invest more in the things that matter - building more homes and making better places.
To achieve our commercial and social goals, we need a diverse range of funding which is cost-effectively structured to provide the necessary investment funds and maintain liquidity. This includes an appropriate mix of bond and bank finance.
