How Ian is building a better working world
“Coming out of the financial crisis, the UK banking market needed more competition and better service provision. The industry also needed to address the financial needs of under-served segments. I’m passionate about helping the Challenger & Specialist banking market succeed and offer better service and choice to UK consumers and small and medium enterprises.”
