The new Bank should play a vital role in fostering sustainable infrastructure projects and programmes, in managing the risks associated with infrastructure, and in providing assurance to the private sector that it can invest with confidence. The UK&rsquo;s recovery and long-term economic growth can and should be based on a clear vision of the investments and innovations that can create a sustainable, inclusive and resilient economy. These investments will drive growth, help to level up across the UK, draw on and develop the UK&rsquo;s strengths, and equip Global Britain to compete in the international markets.&rdquo;<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\">\n<?xml encoding=\"UTF-8\"><p>Commenting on the Spending Review announcement today by the UK Chancellor, Lord Stern of Brentford, Chair of the Grantham Research&hellip;<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":50234,"template":"","tags":[426,1959,437,106],"news-category":[15],"topic_area":[4696,4710],"class_list":["post-53263","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-infrastructure","tag-recovery","tag-uk","tag-uk-policy","news-category-10-press-releases","topic_area-uk-emissions-policy","topic_area-public-finance"],"acf":{"exclude_from_sync":{"ref_value":"field_560538b0e7350","value":"0","type":false,"post_type":""},"downloads":{"ref_value":"field_52f16cc1a80f2","value":false,"type":"repeater","post_type":""},"rss_newsletter":{"ref_value":"field_54f5c2c1544d8","value":"","type":false,"post_type":""},"spotlight":{"ref_value":"field_52f80896506d3","value":"","type":false,"post_type":""}},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 -
