Ashurst advises The Berkeley Group on green bond issuance

The funding will support the regeneration of 29 sites, including disused gasworks and industrial estates, to transform them into spaces with a mix of homes and community amenities to better support and add value to the communities around them.  

The Ashurst capital markets team was led by partner Anna Delgado with support from senior associate Scott Chatterton and associate Charlotte Coleman. Partner Simon Swann advised on tax matters with support from associate Shayaan Zaraq Bari.

Anna Delgado commented: "We are delighted to support Berkeley, a key client of the firm and one who has led the way on sustainability in the homebuilding industry, on their green and sustainability journey and to build on our expertise in sustainable finance with the successful issuance of this debut green bond."
