The paper analyzes the relationship between financial instruments used by social enterprise, and its performance and social innovation activity. To evaluate this relationship we study 34 social enterprises, and measure their profitability, innovation activity, management quality, mission fulfillment, financial sustainability, client loyalty, share of debt in liabilities, share of crowdfunding and government support, social innovation activity and importance of innovation process, both evaluated according to expert opinion. We evaluated the suggestion that structure of capital, as well as level of social innovation activity and its importance to social enterprise’s management are related to company performance, and moderation of financial instruments might lead to higher social business efficiency. Quantitative evaluation was performed by means of correlation, regression and cluster analysis performed by means of SPSS Statistics.
