Conduct: Barzan Abdi (“Mr Abdi”) caused Diva Barbers Ltd (“Diva”) to apply for a government-backed Bounce Back Loan (“BBL”) of £50,000 using overstated turnover figures, when he knew, or ought to have known, that Diva was only eligible for a loan to a maximum amount of £8,614. In that: • Under the BBL scheme a business was able to borrow up to 25% of its turnover in calendar year 2019, up to a maximum of £50,000 and, if the business was established after 1 January 2019, it was to apply the 25% limit to its estimated annual turnover from the date it started. The turnover figure was self-certified by the applicant. • Diva was incorporated on 23 November 2018 and commenced trading from at least 1 October 2019 (first entry on company bank statements). • On 06 May 2020, Mr Abdi applied for a BBL of £50,000 on behalf of Diva, stating in the loan application that Diva’s relevant turnover was £215,000. • Company bank statements between 01 October 2019 and 05 May 2020 (the day before the BBL application), show turnover amounting to £20,484.41, which equates to an estimated figure of £34,455.34 over a 12-month period. • On 11 May 2020, funds of £50,000 were credited to Diva’s bank account. • Diva therefore received BBL funds of at least £41,386 more than it was entitled to. • At the date of the liquidation on 25 September 2023, the Statement of Affairs shows that total liabilities amounted to £69,586, £50,000 of which was in respect of the BBL.
