Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, if he will provide a full list of the lenders to the (a) Bounce Back Loan Scheme, (b) Covid Business Interruption Loan Scheme and (c) Covid Large Business Interruption Loan Scheme; and which lenders have made a disproportionately high number of loans to (i) dissolved entities or (ii) entities incorporated since the outbreak of covid-19.
The Department and the British Business Bank continue to work with lenders to identify and address all types of fraud perpetrated through the Covid Loan Schemes. For example, under the Bank’s Guarantee Assurance Analytics programme, BBLS lenders are investigating several thousand facilities with potential data inconsistencies, including regarding incorporation dates.
We are unable to disclose the rates of indicators of suspected fraud by individual lender at this time due to the commercially sensitive nature of this information.
Full lists of all accredited lenders as at scheme closures on 31 March 2021 are as follows:
