Leadenhall Bank & Trust Company Limited: Tenth Report of Liquidator
Tenth Report of Leadenhall Bank & Trust Company Limited for the period from June 1, 2010 to March 31, 2011.
Leadenhall Bank’s insolvency estimated at $11.3 m
Bahamas-based Leadenhall Bank & Trust Ltd., which was closed down by regulators seven months ago, may be insolvent by more than $11 million. That was the glum news for creditors in the first report of liquidator Craig A. (Tony) Gomez on December 9, 2005.
On paper, the bank had shareholders' equity of $1.6 million as of October 3, 2005, with assets of $29,864,139, including $20.4 million in cash, and liabilities of $28,235,807. “However my review has revealed that the balance sheet includes loans and past due credit card receivables totaling $6.6 and $6.3 million, respectively, and that both balances are either unsecured or inadequately collateralized,” stated Gomez in his report.
