Greensill Bank executives face charges over collapse

Greensill Bank executives face charges over collapse

Bremen prosecutors have filed criminal charges against three former executives of Greensill Bank, including two board members and one supervisory board member, for bankruptcy crimes and false accounting linked to the lender's 2021 collapse. The charges stem from alleged breaches of banking regulations during the refinancing of Sanjeev Gupta's companies in 2019, with prosecutors claiming the executives concealed the bank's risky credit exposure to make it appear as low-risk asset purchases in financial statements.
