Analyst recruitment
The Department for Business, Innovation Skills (BIS) is establishing a Government owned public company, Green Investment Bank plc (GIB), to accelerate private sector investment in the UK’s transition to a green economy. With an initial capital commitment of £3 billion, the GIB will play a vital role in addressing market failures in order to stimulate private investment. It will work to a ‘double bottom line’ of both achieving significant green impact and making financial returns.
The Government will make direct financial contributions as UK Green Investments from April 2012 to accelerate investment in the green economy until the GIB has State Aid approval from the European Commission. Following EC approval, the GIB will be a stand-alone investment institution operating at arm’s length from Government and, from 2015, will be given powers to borrow, subject to public sector debt falling as a percentage of GDP.
