MHA has further strengthened its sustainability team with the appointment of Hiten Sonpal, as head of green finance.
Formerly director of climate propositions for the NatWest Group, Hiten has served as the lead for green finance offerings in his previous roles over the past 12 years.
Hiten will be responsible for growing MHA’s green finance offering by providing lending and advisory services to support businesses achieve their climate change goals through renewable energy initiatives.
He said: “I decided to join MHA as it was clear the firm shared my passion for sustainability and believed in the importance of green finance in supporting the UK’s net zero goals.
“MHA has shown commitment to innovation and being part of an organisation that encourages colleagues to think outside of the box, putting clients’ needs at the forefront of everything it does, was one of the key drivers in my decision to take this new role.”
Rakesh Shaunak, partner and chairman of MHA, added: “Businesses of all sizes are coming under increasing pressure due to rising energy costs. More than ever wise investments in green technology can help businesses develop sustainable cash flows.
“For this reason we decided to further enhance our sustainability capability with a more comprehensive green finance and asset offering under Hiten’s capable and experienced stewardship.”
