Public Control

With the UK political landscape and leadership uncertainty rising, political .

risk is back in focus. Labour’s leftward shift, alongside the rise of Reform

UK, could reshape regulation, risk premia, & sentiment across utilities. We

will host Michael Dugher and David Blackburn, both at Brunswick—Michael

as Head of UK Public Affairs and former Labour MP, and David as an expert

in UK regulatory and political risk, to discuss the implications for capital

allocation.
