Green Investment Bank looks to expand panel of legal advisers

The Green Investment Bank, which was set up by the Government with £3bn in funding to invest in sustainable projects, is looking to expand its panel of legal advisers.

The bank is already in the process of appointing a legal panel, but has decided that this should be larger.

It wants to find advisers in one or more of the following lots:

• Property and estates;
• Employment and pensions;
• General commercial and corporate work (including tax and insolvency); and
• All legal matters (finance, regulation and major or complex projects).

Panel appointments will last for three years, renewable by mutual agreement for a further year.

Awards will be made based on the most economically advantageous tender.

The procurement is being run by RCUK Shared Services Centre.
