Guernsey Finance has itself identified, through our proprietary
research and responses to webinars at Guernsey's Sustainable
Finance Week in June 2020, that while governments and the public
sector will continue to play a key financing role, there is a need
for the private sector to engage and help close the post Covid-19
financing gap.
We hoped that through this event we would be able to contribute
some perspectives and perhaps policy proposals to this important
global dialogue. We asked Tim Hames, Director-General of the
British Private Equity and Venture Capital Association between 2014
and 2019, for his analysis of the week's discussion.
His analysis has gone further than we had hoped, and he has
suggested areas that Guernsey Finance might itself look to
progress.
