Conduct: On 29 March 2021, Shahid Amin (“Mr Amin”) caused Engineering Project Management Ltd (“EPM”) to breach the terms of the Bounce Back Loan (“BBL”) scheme by overstating its turnover when obtaining a BBL. As a result, EPM received a £50,000 BBL when Mr Amin knew, or ought to have known, that EPM was not eligible for a loan of that amount, and failed to use the entirety of the BBL for the economic benefit of EPM, in that: • Under the BBL scheme, businesses could apply for a loan of between £2,000 and £50,000 subject to a maximum of up to 25% of turnover. The turnover figure was self-certified by the applicant. The turnover figure required was that for the calendar year 2019, or where a business was established after 01 January 2019, an estimated turnover could be used. The terms and conditions of the BBL stated that the loan was to be used to provide economic benefit to the company, wholly for business purposes and not personal purposes. • EPM was incorporated on 25 August 2015 and started trading prior to 01 January 2019. • On 28 March 2021, Mr Amin applied to obtain a £50,000 BBL on behalf of EPM, declaring that its turnover for the calendar year 2019 was £205,000. On the 29 March 2021 Mr Amin signed the agreement for the obtention of the BBL and the funds were credited into EPM’s bank account on the same day. • Unaudited financial statements for the years ending 31 August 2019 and 31 August 2020 show that EPM had a turnover of £82,720 and £42,247 respectively. • Analysis of EPM’s bank account shows that between 01 January 2019 and 31 December 2019, EPM received trading income totalling £69,320. • Based on the income received in its bank account during calendar year 2019, EPM was entitled to apply for a BBL of no more than £17,330. • The overstatement of turnover meant that EPM received £32,670 more than it was entitled to from the BBL scheme. • Following the obtention of the BBL, between 16 April 2021 and 01 June 2021, seven payments totalling £47,000 were made to Mr Amin’s personal bank account. • Mr Amin has failed to provide evidence to show how the BBL monies were used for the economic benefit of EPM. • EPM entered liquidation on 30 May 2023 with liabilities totalling £50,000, being the BBL.
