NACFB asset finance seminar “a success”

The event on 1 March had a wide range of speakers from the industry giving their insights and evaluations of the market for 2011.

NACFB chief executive, Adam Tyler explained: “The Leasing and Asset Finance sector of the NACFB has seen significant growth within the last year or so, despite a slight fall in applications from other areas of the market. We felt that it was important to give brokers from this sector a platform to voice their concerns for the market in 2011 and this day offered a great opportunity to bring brokers and lenders together.

“Essentially the day was designed to get the broker market and the lenders talking to ensure that we are moving forward during 2011 and increasing the funding to our SME customers once again.

“There were some interesting points raised throughout the seminars and the speakers provided some good insights in to the market for 2011 throughout the panel discussions. The feedback we have received from the delegates and the exhibitors was excellent which is very encouraging.

“We would like to thank all those that attended the day and for the exhibitors and speakers that made the day such a success. It is important that the NACFB with the backing of the FLA can work together to discuss what the future of the industry may look like and how the NACFB and its brokers can help to shape it for the better.”
