Regeneration in the UK
UK Government Mandate for RIO
..“A new one-stop-shop has been
set up (RIO) to help
international investors identify
and fund regeneration
opportunities in the UK.
These projects won’t just mean
new jobs in London or the South
East - but right across the whole
country”
The Prime Minister at the Lord Mayor’s Banquet
(11th November 2013).
Regeneration in the UK
UK Government Mandate
“We have a really strong supply of regeneration projects in the
UK - over £100 billion in capital value. But currently the offer is
fragmented with delays and it’s difficult for investors to
navigate. The Regeneration Investment Organisation provides
a great opportunity to announce a radical new approach to
helping boost investment into the UK”.
“RIO acts as the “honest broker” and provides a fantastic way of helping investors find and invest into
a credible range of UK wide pipeline of regeneration opportunities. It does this by having a dedicated
regional team and development experts, set project criteria in determining an “investible project”, and
by working with UK partners through a high level advisory board. It will therefore build on the success
of the investment secured at Battersea Power Station, by creating an easier point of entry for
investors. By creating stronger links with local and national partners, RIO will help to remove some of
the barriers faced by partners to project delivery, which will enable sustainable jobs and growth
across the regions within the UK”.
