Afin Bank, the specialist lender created to help underserved Africans and other diaspora communities living and working in the UK to get mortgages, has announced that it has appointed Peter Hale as Head of Finance.
Hale was previously Head of Finance at FCMB Bank UK, part of a Nigerian based banking group, a part of which provides banking to high-net-worth individuals and businesses in the UK, primarily to customers originally from Africa.
Charles Resnick, Afin Bank’s Chief Financial Officer, said “Peter is a key addition to the team and brings lots of expertise in banking and finance, which is invaluable ahead of our planned launch later this year. Peter’s previous experience of working with the African community will be important in helping to make Afin the bank for underserved diaspora communities in the UK.”
