  • Gore Street Energy Storage Fund, is seeking to raise up to £60m, to buy new energy storage projects, following on from fellow battery fund Gresham House that priced a deal last week.
  • Felix Fletcher has joined Investec’s power and infrastructure finance team as a senior coverage banker, originating for lending and advisory business across the group.
  • Three of France’s best known entrepreneurs have partnered up to launch a special purpose acquisition vehicle (Spac) on the French stock exchange, which is seeking to invest in organic and sustainable consumer goods. The deal has made a fast start on its first day of book building.
