New Cost of Capital Annual Update Report

Published: 31st May 2017

Today we have published our Cost of Capital – Annual Update Report.

The purpose of this new information paper, researched and written by the UKRN Cost of Capital Network, is to refresh last year’s report (which came out in March 2016), provide an update on the cost of capital decisions taken by regulators over the last year and to highlight the reasons why the decisions about certain components of the cost of capital differ from the most recent decisions made by their peers.

Participating regulators have signed up to the UKRN Cost of Capital Principles to ensure continued collaboration on cost of capital issues.  We have identified a number of ways we intend to continue to collaborate in the future, including the commitment to to producing and publishing an annual update report on the cost of capital decisions, in line with the format of this report.

If you have any comments on this Cost of Capital Annual Update Report, or would like more information on the UKRN Cost of Capital Network’s approach to collaborative working, we would be delighted to hear from you, so please get in touch.
