NegativeFinancial Markets

A recent report reveals that UK taxpayers have lost £400 million due to the collapse of 334 companies supported by the Future Fund, an investment initiative launched by Rishi Sunak in May 2020. This fund, which aimed to support startups during the pandemic, has faced heavy criticism for its effectiveness, as it ultimately backed many firms that failed. The significant financial loss raises concerns about the management of public funds and the long-term impact on the startup ecosystem in the UK.
