It won’t be cheap. Manta Group was placed into administration with debts of more than $68 million, up from the project’s original $26 million in financing from a different lender.
What’s more, it wasn’t just the debt burden that prompted Alceon Finance to call in administrators but also a bitter falling out among the group’s six directors and seven shareholders.
