The Green Finance sector continues to evolve rapidly. As the UK positions itself as a global hub for sustainable finance, we’re seeing a surge in interest from clients seeking to align their financing strategies with ESG principles and net zero commitments. This is not just a compliance exercise, it’s a strategic pivot that opens up new markets, enhances resilience, and builds long-term value.

At the same time, the economic climate remains nuanced. While inflationary pressures have eased slightly, businesses are still navigating uncertainty around interest rates, supply chain resilience, and geopolitical risk. In my work, I’ve noticed a growing emphasis on structuring deals that are both agile and impact-driven, particularly in sectors like renewable energy, sustainable infrastructure, and inclusive finance.

In this edition, we have a great mix of articles from our Commercial, Corporate, Commercial & Regulatory Disputes, Employment and Banking teams, so there is bound to be something to pique your interest. We also have a guest article from the  Tax, Trusts & Succession team on changes to Business Property Relief.
