The Bounce Back Loan Scheme, launched on 27 April 2020, became the largest COVID-19 business support initiative, delivering around £47 billion in government-backed loans to over 1.5 million businesses, with speed of access at its core. But with that scale came risk… so what has fraud in these loans looked like, and just how serious has the problem become? In this eye-opening and insightful episode, Hatti Suvari is joined by seasoned senior barrister Cameron Brown QC (now KC) to explore the reality of Bounce Back Loan fraud. From the scale of misuse, to how these cases are investigated and prosecuted, to the largest fraud conviction so far, this episode sheds light on one of the most significant financial crime issues to emerge from the pandemic. If you or someone you know want to understand the risks and legal consequences surrounding financial fraud, this is a must-listen.
