Two of the men behind the £237 million London Capital & Finance investment fraud have been made bankrupt.

Spencer Golding and John Russell-Murphy were among five individuals that a High Court judge late last year found liable for hundreds of millions of pounds in damages after LCF was ruled to be a Ponzi scheme.

Notices show that a bankruptcy order was made against Golding last month, while an order was made against Russell-Murphy in December.

Recent, separate, investigations by insolvency practitioners at Grant Thornton, the administrators of Huddle SPV 4 Limited, part of an insolvent peer-to-peer lending group, alleged an “individual may have…

Phosphate was supposed to be the outback’s next big economic opportunity, but one mining company says the cost of rail freight has brought its project to the end of the line. 

Just three years after its first shipments were celebrated for reducing Australia’s reliance on imports, the Ardmore Mine, about 140 kilometres south of Mount Isa, has entered voluntary administration, with about 150 jobs now on the line.
