As I keep saying -- someone is taking over the playground. Have a look at this article --- the graphs tell a story, but I love the song !

By the end of this year I reckon that at least 4 of the companies identified will be in administration with CF taking over.

However Competition & Mergers may start having a say.

Hello, Lou, and welcome. I see one of my colleagues has edited out your email address as per forum requirements.

Might I suggest that you pop the address into your profile where interested parties can find it.

And be aware that board members can be really hard on debt professionals (and really nice in the right circumstances).

Thank you lifenoteasy. They may wish to try. I’ve long campaigned for greater transparency and accountability in my sector. My motivation isn't simply about ensuring the best prosper (although I agree with the sentiment). I want to protect the integrity of the personal insolvency sector and the survival and longevity of IVA's as a debt solution for individuals. Our practice, is a classed a volume provider by those stats yet we have been ranked No1 by the creditor representatives in terms of important things like outcomes, case set-up and closure – you can be sure I practice what I preach. :)

Only giving you fair warning:)

I actually think that I am easy going but according to the other half I am far from that.

The difficulty is that on the board we tend to see more of what has gone wrong rather than what has gone right.

You soon work out who is managing a message from companies rather actually trying to solve a problem.

I will be taking a break from the board soon for a few months to concentrate properly on other things but I am sure that Foggy will continue to live up to his name:)
