Harrison Coldray, Senior Associate in our Financial Services team, is joined by Heike Schmitz, Partner and Co-Head of ESG EMEA at Herbert Smith Freehills' Frankfurt office. As a new Commission shapes up in the European Union, the evolution of sustainable finance policy & politics will be critical to shaping a Clean Industrial Deal. This podcast looks at the emerging regulatory framework, a renewed focus on mobilising capital into transition finance, and the tough political choices the Commission has ahead of it. The EU, in many respects, had led the way to date in developing a robust framework for mobilising capital into sustainable activities.

UK Sustainable Finance: new government, new approach? 47:16

Harrison Coldray, Senior Associate in our Financial Services team, sits down with James Alexander and Oscar Warwick Thompson from the UK Sustainable Investment and Finance Association (UKSIF) to discuss where the sustainable finance agenda might be heading under a new government ambitious about unlocking flows of green capital to fund their 'missions'. They anticipate key areas of divergence from the previous government, including in approaches to regulatory frameworks, planning, and mobilising private capital through catalytic government action. The pressure on corporates and investors in closing the UK's green finance gap is no doubt ramping up, however the discussion highlights where government could play a role in removing blockages and creating the necessary economic conditions for sustainable investment to flow.
