↓ -5%Form Energy has closed a $270 million credit facility to support its energy storage technology development. The facility comprises a revolving credit facility and a tax credit advance facility linked to Section 45X Advanced Manufacturing Production Credit. An accordion feature allows the facility to expand to $1 billion. Barclays served as sole structuring bank, with Citi, Jefferies, JPMorgan Chase, RBC Capital Markets, Societe Generale, Stifel, and Wells Fargo participating in the lending syndicate. The financing follows Form Energy's $750 million Series G funding round in August, bringing total equity raised to over $2 billion. Proceeds will fund manufacturing scale-up and working capital as the company produces iron-air battery systems at its Weirton, West Virginia facility.
JPMorgan AWM operations head Julie Harris to retire in 2027 - report. Fred Crosnier willtake over leadership of AWM operations from 1 Januaryand report to AWM CEO Mary Callahan Erdoes. Julie Harris, who oversees operations for JPMorgan Chase's asset and wealth management (AWM) division, plans to retire in early 2027, according to an internal memo seen by Reuters. The bank has appointed Fred Crosnier to take over leadership of AWM operations from 1 January. He will report to AWM CEO Mary Callahan Erdoes. During Harris' time in the role, the bank's asset and wealth management business expanded to more than $8tn in client assets under supervision, from about $2tn. "Julie has been one of the most influential leaders in AWM's transformation over the last decade. Since joining the firm in 2017, she has challenged us to rethink legacy ways of working, championed smarter and more scalable solutions," Erdoes said in the memo. Harris joined JPMorgan in 2017 and also holds the position of chief administrative officer within the division. Crosnier started his career with JPMorgan in France and rejoined the bank in 2019 after senior roles elsewhere in financial services. JPMorgan said it would name a replacement for Crosnier in the asset management operations position later. Separately, Wells Fargo is stepping up its hiring of financial advisers after a five-year overhaul of its wealth management unit, Bloomberg reported. The current push is focused on independent advisers, who are not salaried by the bank but use its platform. In a statement to Private Banker International at the time, Wells Fargo Advisors head Sol Gindi said: "Wells Fargo Wealth & Investment Management continues to attract high-quality advisor talent across markets throughout the United States. Its multichannel model gives advisors the flexibility to choose the business structure that best aligns with how they wish to run their practice and support clients' needs. "For those serving high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth clients, our integrated Private Wealth offering provides specialised planning, investment, trust, and banking solutions designed to serve even the most complex clients."

UK energy company Drax has secured a £1.1 billion loan from JPMorgan and Santander to finance its solar energy expansion. The deal marks a significant institutional investment in renewable energy as the UK aims for 70% of electricity from renewable sources by 2030. The financing will support Drax's diversification into solar power and increase its renewable generation capacity. The involvement of major banks reflects growing institutional interest in sustainable projects, driven by environmental, social, and governance criteria in investment decisions. Global renewable energy investments have reached record levels, with the solar market projected to exceed $200 billion annually by 2025. The deal signals confidence in solar energy's financial viability and may encourage further banking sector investments in renewable projects.
