In advance of the COP26 summit, this sustainable finance special issue of Bridging & Commercial Magazine explores how far away the property finance industry is from a green industrial revolution and provide top tips and advice to push more companies in our sector to make sustainable housebuilding and tackling climate change the priorities they need to be. Elsewhere, we speak to Uplift Finance about how being ethical and commercial don’t have to be thought about separately, find out what six other countries are doing to make building greener, and quiz Stonewater’s John Bruton on what its £250m sustainability bond will bring to the affordable housing market. We also speak to development lender Atelier on a new initiative that could save sustainable developers six figures on their loans.
