The Private Finance Team and our objectives

The Private Finance team is the main point of contact for current and potential lenders, investors, ratings agencies and advisors.

Applies to England

Our Private Finance function aims to:

  • ensure financial stakeholders understand our role and approach
  • maintain an effective information flow between RSH and key external stakeholders by offering regular bilateral meetings and an annual investor conference; support for potential new entrants; and a sounding board for innovative product developments
  • develop our corporate understanding of the current position and future direction of the sector funding market
  • apply that understanding to the development of strategic policy and operational approaches
  • uphold the reputation of the regulator and the sector, contributing to maintaining the confidence of key external stakeholders and supporting the continued supply of funding.
