Green Investment Bank

Proceeding contribution from Iain Wright (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 29 October 2015. It occurred during Debate on Green Investment Bank.

I will mention one point, because it is central to my concerns, then I will certainly give way.

Given that the bank will be small, I am concerned that it will be vulnerable to a takeover by another institution, whose concern for its shareholders would be the pursuit of short-term profits rather than long-term value maximisation. That would be a real danger.
