About the client

Greencoat Capital, a specialist renewable energy infrastructure manager, was acquired by Schroders in early 2022, providing the company with the financing necessary to rapidly expand its operations. With £9 billion in assets under management (AUM) and a headcount of around 100, Greencoat is now one of Europe's largest dedicated managers in the renewable energy sector.
