We create value for society from government’s most complex commercial interests
Owned by HM Treasury, UK Government Investments (UKGI) provides expertise in corporate finance and corporate governance to government departments, advising in support of their policy objectives. Independently managed, UKGI brings together the functions of the Shareholder Executive (ShEx was formerly part of the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills) and UK Financial Investments Ltd (UKFI) under a single holding company.
