However, this event was followed by a significant turn of events later that year. Johnson Matthey's banking and gold-trading division, Johnson Matthey Bankers Ltd, suffered a catastrophic collapse on September 30, 1984, less than a year after the notorious Brink's-Mat robbery. During this audacious heist, a staggering £26 million worth of gold bullion, diamonds, and cash were pilfered from a Brink's-Mat warehouse. Notably, the purloined bullion belonged to Johnson Matthey Bankers Ltd, and to this day, most of the gold remains unrecovered.
