Carillion: £100m rescue fund goes unspent

摘要

Construction News has learned that an extra £100m, made available by the government-owned British Business Bank just weeks after Carillion went bust, has not been used to support any firms hit by the contractor's demise. The £100m was an expansion of the bank's Enterprise Finance Guarantee (EFG) programme and was meant to enable high street lenders to offer finance to small businesses that were affected by the liquidation, but lacked the security to get a conventional loan.
