Dr Michelle He, Fintern Co-Founder and COO said "It's a great honour to have Andrew as our NED at an exciting time in our growth. Andrew will be of huge benefit to Fintern, bringing his excellent knowledge and experience of building and scaling a UK lending business."
Andrew said "I'm thrilled to be joining Fintern, it has a tremendously exciting business model with limitless potential. From the moment I met the founders, I know this was a company that I wanted to be involved with and am delighted to not only be an early-stage investor but also its first non-executive director"
Gerald Chappell, Fintern Co-Founder and CEO added "Andrew is one of the UK's pre-eminent Fintech and lending entrepreneurs and has hands-on experience building and scaling high-impact lending businesses. He's been through our journey multiple times: building industry redefining propositions, providing dramatically improved options to under-served customers, and growing rapidly to scale."
