DESCRIPTION

Part of our Business and Climate Change Series, this presentation explored how the Green Investment Bank has delivered on its objectives and its plans for future development.The GIB, the first of its kind in the world, was formed as a public company in May 2012, and became fully operational in October 2012 when it was granted State Aid approval by the European Commission to make investments on commercial terms. Its remit is to co- invest in UK projects which are both green and commercial alongside private sector finance. Since its creation the GIB has co-invested over 600m on a range of projects totalling 2.3billion. Its mandate from Government is to deploy at least 80% of its capital in offshore wind; waste recycling and energy from waste energy efficiency, including support for the Government's Green Deal. It measures its green impact in terms of reducing greenhouse gas emissions; increasing natural resource efficiency; protecting the natural environment; enhancing biodiversity and promoting environmental sustainability.

BearingPoint Institute SurveyInstitutional Investors and Infrastructure (Europe)

Prequin Research on Insurers Capital Allocation Targets

In the next 3-5 years a significant number of insurers and pension funs will develop their own internal infrastructure teams to manage

investment?

Infrastructure investment allocation by insurance companies, proportion of investors (%)

• Institutional investment in renewable energy has more than doubled between 2007-13, with listed funds being the preferred route to the market for pension funds and insurers

• Insurers and pension funds are building infrastructure teams and increasing allocation to the sector – for example: Axa recently announced that is aiming to invest €10bn (c.

£8.5bn) in infra debt Allianz GI raised a £1bn fund for UK Infra in 2013 Legal & General announced an aim to commit up to £15bn in

the sector Pension Denmark are actively involved in European infra

market and closed renewable energy deals in the UK Blackrock is growing its EU Infra Debt team

OUR FOCUS

Our proposition

• We have £3.8bn of capital to invest, provided by the UK Government

• We expect to commit this capital by March 2016• We have the ability to structure products across the

capital structure, from senior debt to equity• We deal on commercial terms; GIB does not provide

grants, ‘soft capital’, regional assistance or development capital

• Investment must be additional. Our involvement must be necessary for the project to go ahead. We aim to crowd-in other private sector capital
