United Finance Limited, a member of Hanover Group of Companies, New
Zealand's largest privately owned finance company, has appointed Simon Thompson to lead United Finance in the newly formed
role as general manager.
A graduate of Canterbury University with a career spanning 24 years,
Thompson was most recently employed as a senior manager overseeing
equipment finance at Fisher and Paykel Finance.
Prior to this he previously attained management positions with leading
corporate institutions such as State Bank of South Australia, NZI Bank and
BNZ Finance.
"United Finance has signaled a move into broader ranges of commercial
finance with the release of its latest prospectus. Simon will ensure the
diversification is prudently managed with his financial acumen, strong
commercial networks and track record of significant asset growth," says
Hanover group chief executive Officer, Kerry Finnigan.
