Financial Regulation – Biased against Clean Energy and Green Infrastructure?
Much has been written about the policies required to make clean energy attractive for investors. However, in many cases, even when supportive policies are in place, results have been mixed, with limited uptake unless risk adjusted returns are extremely – some would say overly – generous. This discussion paper identifies a number of areas in which the regulation of investment itself, rather than policy relating to underlying assets, companies or technologies may be holding back the flow of investment.
