UK-based investment management company Low Carbon Investors has announced investments from Devonshire Capital.

A press release by London-based, privately held LCI did not disclose a financial sum or elaborate on how the money will be used.

Together with the investment, Andrew Affleck, co-founder and managing partner of Singapore-based, privately held Devonshire Capital, has joined LCI as an executive director, according to the release.

LCI manages the Low Carbon Accelerator (AIM: LCA) closed-ended investment fund listed on AIM.

Affleck said that "as a consequence of the current challenges facing the global financial services sector, opportunities have arisen for quality operators so this is a good time to be a low carbon investor."
