Policy and legislative change have brought about new opportunities for land managers to develop and deliver natural capital improvements. As ever, the interface between a new asset class, public funding opportunities and private investment creates new challenges and opportunities.
Our natural capital approach is multidisciplinary. We boast experts in corporate, commercial, tax, and banking, supported by Agriculture and Environment specialists with in-depth knowledge of land management and environmental change delivery.
Landscape Scale Recovery or “LSR” is DEFRA’s top tier scheme to fund and promote truly joined up landscape scale improvement in the environment. Such momentous change will require collaboration between landowners and tenants landscape wide, with detailed thought given to tenure, taxation, corporate governance, and commercial aspects. We have all that is required and more to help make these exciting projects a success.
Many of our clients share our strong Environmental Social and Governance “ESG” values and we help them to balance progress with a purposeful agenda, in support of a more sustainable economy. We are always delighted to work with clients looking to promote not only the environment, but also social opportunities and good governance. Many of the projects we advise upon in the natural capital space are also delivering social benefits through public access, or providing healthier built and natural environments. Much of the governance that we help to put in place is intended to secure a sustainable future for these projects.
