Quantuma appoints Director

Business advisory firm Quantuma has appointed Mike Horton as a new Director to its financial advisory practice.

Horton has over 18 years’ experience working in the financial services sector, spending over half of his career advising businesses exhibiting signs of financial distress or entering a formal insolvency process. His expertise spans refinancing, new lending for businesses, portfolio management, and advising corporates and their financial stakeholders in turnaround situations.

Before joining Quantuma, Horton managed the recoveries portfolio of peer-to-peer lender Assetz Capital for over four years. Prior to this role, he worked at Co-op Bank as a credit risk manager, and the Royal Bank of Scotland as a corporate manager within the bank’s global restructuring group.

In his role at Quantuma’s Manchester office, Horton will advise both businesses and a range of financial stakeholders across turnaround and performance improvement, options reviews, crisis and contingency planning and cash and working capital management.

Louise Durkan, Managing Director at Quantuma, said “Over the last year, businesses across the UK have faced unprecedented financial challenges. Our team has worked hard to support these businesses and we are committed to growing our team to ensure we can continue to provide our services to clients and SMEs across the UK. We are delighted to have Mike on board – he will bring invaluable experience and knowledge to his role and the team here at Quantuma.”
