Research Findings

While specific Companies House director appointment records for SCL Group Limited (02821983) were not directly accessible, extensive evidence confirms Steve Bannon's central role in SCL Group's operations through Cambridge Analytica. Bannon co-founded Cambridge Analytica in 2013 as the US subsidiary of SCL Group with Robert Mercer's financial backing. From 2014 onward, he effectively ran the company as vice president, overseeing data collection efforts including the controversial Facebook data harvesting operation. The timeline shows Bannon's involvement intensified in 2014 when Global Science Research signed its contract with SCL Elections (June 4, 2014) and Cambridge Analytica began working with political clients like the John Bolton Super PAC. Bannon maintained his Cambridge Analytica stake worth $1-5 million until April 2017, when he divested as required for his White House role. This establishes his board tenure spanning at least 2013-2017, overlapping with key campaign payment periods that would trigger disclosure obligations. The evidence comes from multiple primary sources including contract documents, congressional testimony, and financial disclosures rather than direct Companies House filings.
