The company confirmed SVB UK provided 40% of Molten’s current undrawn credit of up to £60m and a £90m term loan.
“Furthermore, Molten has a strong cash position, with gross cash balances currently in excess of £30m of which less than £1m is currently deposited with SVB UK,” the company said on Tuesday.
It added that it had “worked closely with its portfolio companies to further improve the position over recent days”.
