Rogue Small Business Fund lost capital - concerning headline! (9)
I believe the answer is:
scoundrel
'rogue' is the definition.
(both can mean a dishonourable person)
'small business fund lost capital concerning headline' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'small' could be 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size) and 's' is present in the answer.
'business' could be 'el' (el is a kind of business) and 'el' is found in the answer.
'concerning' could be 'c' and 'c' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for scoundrel that I've seen before include "Untrustworthy figure" , "bad egg" , "A rogue or dishonest person" , "Knave" , "Rascal" .)
