The UK government has stepped in to support Tata Motors-owned Jaguar Land Rover after a cyber-attack forced the carmaker to halt production earlier this month. The UK government announced a loan guarantee of up to £1.5 billion to help the company secure funds from commercial banks and protect its supply chain. The guarantee comes under the Department for Business and Trade's Export Development Guarantee, backed by UK Export Finance. The loan will be repayable over five years.
