The former Director General of the private equity industry body
the British Venture Capital Association (BVCA) has given his
backing to Guernsey on devising principles for green and
sustainable investment for the PE sector.
Tim Hames held the top role at the BVCA for six years until last
year.
"When we start to consider what the post-virus social and
economic system should look like, it will be crystal clear that the
need to contain climate change and the necessity of seeking
sustainable finance will have been significantly enhanced, not
eroded, by the current crisis," he writes in a foreword to the
publication of Green Private Equity Principles from Guernsey Green
Finance.
