Business owners could sue banks that drove them into bankruptcy

Small business owners who feel they’ve been unfairly treated by high-street banks may be able to sue them for the first time.
Banks including Clydesdale, Lloyds and RBS allegedly drove thousands of businesses to the wall after making inappropriate loans, and then supposedly asset stripped those businesses for millions of pounds once they were insolvent. RBS in particular has been singled out for criticism — its department set up to help businesses in trouble in fact dismantled 90pc of SMEs referred to it.
In an unprecedented move, MPs have petitioned the Supreme Court to change the law on “reflective loss”. If successful, many business owners will be able to sue their banks for pushing them into insolvency.

To find out more about how it’s done – and its ongoing challenges – Small Business spoke to double Commonwealth medal-winning table tennis player, Colin Wilson. He explains how he set up his table tennis centre, Corby Smash.

Getting a long tenure is a challenge I’m also keen to take on. We’d rather that than be based in a community centre where the next April it can be taken away and transformed into something different.
The third reason is that I wanted to see if the centre can break even. Is it financially sustainable in the long-term? If successful, it could be replicated by other table tennis fanatics or entrepreneurs. The participation and membership of table tennis could increase ten-fold.
