Sustainable Investment Highlights — UK & US (This Week)
🇬🇧 1. UK Infrastructure Finance on a Surge
The UK has already raised ~US$38 billion in debt over ~90 infrastructure deals in the first eight months of 2025, putting it on track to beat the prior record from 2021. Investments are concentrated in energy transition, digital infrastructure, ports, water, and carbon capture. Financial Times
Implication: Investor confidence is high where policy clarity and regulatory support align with long-term sustainable infrastructure needs.
🇺🇸 2. US Disbands Key Climate Financial Risk Committees
The FSOC voted to dismantle two climate-risk advisory panels that were meant to monitor financial exposures related to climate change. Critics warn that without these, the US may lose some of its ability to foresee and mitigate systemic climate-driven financial threats. Reuters
Implication: Regulatory rollback may dampen disclosure pressure and reduce oversight risk; firms with strong internal climate risk frameworks may gain competitive advantage.
Takeaways & What to Watch
UK appears to be doubling down on sustainable infrastructure, especially in sectors essential for the transition (water, energy, carbon capture).
In the US, the regulatory environment is shifting, potentially away from formal climate risk mechanisms. Companies and investors may need to rely more on voluntary standards, internal governance, or market-driven ESG disclosures.
Key themes to monitor:
How UK policy will continue to support infrastructure finance (e.g. subsidies, permitting, contracts).
In the US, how investors, rating agencies, and non-financial regulators respond to the disbanding of advisory bodies. Will there be new forms of oversight?
The flow of capital: where investors are placing their money in light of the changing policy environment.
