Dozens of early-stage tech companies in the UK have warned the chancellor of “an existential threat” to the sector following the failure of Silicon Valley Bank in the US.

The Treasury and the Bank of England are trying to minimise the disruption that could stem from a collapse of the UK arm of the bank.
