The UK parliament’s Treasury select committee will next week launch an inquiry into the collapse of Greensill Capital, saying it will focus on the “regulatory lessons” from the failure of the supply chain finance firm, as well as the appropriateness of HM Treasury's response to lobbying from former Prime Minister David Cameron.

The committee, which is dominated by Conservative MPs, last month decided against probing the Greensill collapse further, after Labour politicians urged it to look closer at the relationship between the finance firm and Cameron, who acted as an adviser.
