    British Steel Faces Insolvency

    Written by Sandy Williams


    British Steel Ltd. has been ordered into liquidation after failing to receive another bailout from the government.

    British Steel hoped to receive a $95 million support package from the government to help it with issues related to the U.K.’s withdrawal from the European Union. The government previously granted a $152 million loan to the company to help meet emission trading compliance costs. Any further funding could be considered illegal state aid, said U.K Business Secretary Greg Clark.
