Board change
Amigo Holdings PLC ("Amigo" or "the Company"), a provider of
mid-cost credit in the UK that is currently in an orderly solvent
wind-down, has been notified of the board change detailed
below.
On 15 May 2023 Danny Malone resigned from his role as CEO and
Director, subject to serving out his 6 month notice period to
ensure the continuation of the solvent and orderly wind-down of the
business.
Danny Malone, CEO: "I joined Amigo last year as I could see the
potential of the new proposition, RewardRate, in a market which is
crying out for supply. I would like to thank our teams who have
shown remarkable resilience and commitment over what has been a
very challenging period and to everyone for the culture we have
built in such difficult circumstances. Unfortunately the investment
market, particularly into the sector in which Amigo operates, was
extremely difficult and we were unable to raise the capital
required. As a result the business is in wind down, which will have
progressed enough over the next six months for me to hand to others
to complete."
Jonathan Roe, Chair: "Danny was a tireless leader of the
executive team in our search to secure commitments for new
financing for Amigo, which unfortunately proved impossible to
secure. He was also integral to getting our RewardRate product into
the market. As Amigo is now required to wind down under the terms
of its Scheme of Arrangement, Danny's resignation is another sad
day for the Group."
