John Cupis appointed to AMI board

The AMI board, chaired by Rt Hon. John Gummer MP, said it will benefit from Cupis' “extensive industry knowledge and insight as well as Sesame's active campaigning on issues such as raising LTVs to stimulate market growth”.

Chris Cummings, director general of AMI, said: "John is extremely well respected in the industry and his foresight and considered thinking around the issues that will ultimately determine the future shape of the mortgage advice market will be a welcome addition to the AMI board."

John Cupis added: "The unprecedented economic conditions that mortgage intermediaries have had to endure, combined with the FSA's forthcoming Mortgage Market Review, have created an environment where there has never been a more important time for our profession to work together. I look forward to working closely with AMI and drawing on the other board members' expertise on this important area of work."
