The first National Infrastructure Strategy was published by HM Treasury on 25 November 2020 as part of the Spending Review. It described UK government plans to transform UK infrastructure based around three central objectives:

* Economic recovery.
* Levelling up and strengthening the Union.
* Meeting the UK’s net zero emissions target by 2050.

The strategy included plans to set up a new UK infrastructure bank, to co-invest alongside the private sector in infrastructure projects. The bank will operate UK-wide, be based in the North of England, and support the government’s ambitions on levelling up and net zero. It will also be able to lend to local and mayoral authorities for key infrastructure projects, and provide them with advice on developing and financing infrastructure.

In line with the NIC’s recommendation, the new bank will operate within a mandate set by government and have a high degree of operational independence. It will replace some of the activities of the European Investment Bank (EIB), following the UK’s departure from the European Union. However, the bank will provide more targeted support than the EIB, and will be better aligned with the UK government’s objectives.

It will use a range of tools to support private projects: as well as offering guarantees through the existing UK Guarantees scheme, it will be able to offer debt, equity, and hybrid products.

At Budget 2021, the Chancellor will set out comprehensive details regarding the operations, mandate and scale of the bank. The government intends for the bank to be operational in an interim form, from spring 2021, so it can play a role in supporting the UK’s economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. The government will legislate for the bank at the earliest opportunity, to put it on a statutory footing.
