[08 December 2011], The UK’s leading asset finance provider, Lombard, has announced that it has restructured its Corporate Asset Finance and Large Corporate & Specialist Asset Finance teams.
Following the appointments earlier in the year of Gary Leitch as Managing Director of Corporate Asset Finance and Andy Hart as Managing Director of Large Corporate & Specialist Asset Finance, the asset finance provider has put in place a new tier of senior management to ensure that existing and future customers in these two sectors receive a service that reflects Lombard’s knowledge of each sector’s particular needs.
The Corporate Asset Finance team, responsible for servicing the asset financing needs of UK organisations with turnover in the range £25m to £350m, will be lead by Ian Nelson who takes up the role of Head of UK Origination and Chris Black who has been appointed as Head of UK Relationship Management.

Lombard has also announced that Paul Caskey has been appointed to the role of Head of Large Corporate Asset Finance. Operating primarily with the top 350 FTSE listed companies, this highly experienced team focuses on delivering the often-complex funding requirements of the largest companies in the country.
