Anne Williams, chief operating officer, said: “At Henry Howard Finance we appreciate the increasing importance of technology, and the role that IT will continue to play within the growth journey of the business – particularly as we prepare ourselves to implement GDPR best practices. We have every confidence that our current systems are ahead of the market offering, and our considerable investment into the IT team has been made in order to maintain our position as a funder of first choice.
“Looking ahead to 2018 and beyond, our strengthened IT capabilities will allow us to more effectively analyse client data and improve the tailored financial services we provide, further enhancing our offering to our vendors and customers.”
