These meetings covered requests made by Greensill to, first, allow them to access the scheme by changing its terms and, second, to broaden its scope to allow supply chain finance (SCF) providers to access the scheme in general.<\/p>As is a matter of public record both of these requests were rejected but it is right that HM Treasury listened to \u2013 and gave due consideration to \u2013 all potential options to support businesses to survive the pandemic given the extraordinary challenges facing UK SMEs last Spring."}

The FCA is the supervisor for firms registered as Annex 1 firms under the Money Laundering Regulations 2017.
Greensill Capital UK (Limited) was not authorised by the FCA. It was a registered entity under the Money Laundering Regulations, which means that it was subject to FCA regulation only for compliance with Anti-Money Laundering rules, not for wider conduct issues. Greensill Capital Securities Ltd was an Appointed Representative of an FCA-regulated firm, under whose supervision it could conduct some regulated activities. However, it was not itself supervised or authorised by the FCA. Greensill Capital Securities Ltd is no longer an Appointed Representative<\/p>
It would not be appropriate for HM Treasury to comment on the actions taken by an independent regulator regarding an individual firm.<\/p>"}
