In our Q4 2023 Corporate Advisory Newsletter, Finbarr Griffin, Head of Corporate Advisory, focuses on our ESG journey. In September this year Goodbody acquired Clearstream Solutions – a leading Irish ESG advisory specialist. The business was founded in 2009 by Brian O'Kennedy. Brian will continue to run the business under its new name Goodbody Clearstream and join the Corporate Advisory senior management team. This acquisition is an important strategic step for Goodbody, as demand for sustainable financing continues to grow, having in-house capability and expertise of this team’s calibre will add significant value for our corporate clients.
Make sure to look at the AIB Green Senior Hold Co case study, where Goodbody acted as a joint lead manager and ESG advisor on AIB’s 5th green bond offering.
Finally, we wrap up this edition of the newsletter with an interview with Brian O’Kennedy, Head of Goodbody Clearsteam. Brian talks to us about his team, ESG trends and challenges, the evolving ESG landscape and what he’d like to see come from COP28.
