FCA may investigate Yu Group's financial health

(Reuters) - YU Group <YU.L>, a supplier of gas and electricity to British businesses, said the country's financial watchdog is planning to investigate whether announcements made by the company between March 6 and Oct. 24 reflected its financial status.

The company said on Wednesday that it plans cooperate with the Financial Conduct Authority.

Yu said in October that an internal review of the performance of the firm had raised significant concerns including the recognition of historic accrued income, impairment of trade debtors and gross margins being achieved against prior expectations.
