Welcome to the November 2020 edition of the TDB Digest. For many of our readers, lockdown life this year saw just about everything moved to Zoom or other video-conference providers, from client meetings to team chats to Friday work beers. Despite the drop in physical contact, TDB members made the most of life working at home, with reports of new running routes and specialties in the kitchen.

A lot has been going on both in Wellington and in our Christchurch office. Over the year of Zoom, TDB has been working with a number of clients as they manage the Covid-crisis, ranging from advising a listed company on capital structure and funding options; a local government authority on financial strategy and cost recovery; and the Treasury on a strategic review of a major Covid-related intervention.

Though 2020 has been anything but dull, here’s hoping the waters smooth in the year to come.
