Basketball star joins asset lender Borro as BDM
Borro, the personal asset lender, has boosted its intermediary development team with the addition of former international basketball star Nyedzi Kpokpoya as a BDM.
Nyedzi studied for her MBA at Edhec Business School and was a professional basketball player in her native France and in Europe. With almost 10 years experience across various European professional service companies, the last three being within financial services. She is London based and will be responsible for building relationships within the sports and entertainment industry and also the international SME market.
Claire Gates, Managing Director at Borro commented:
“We have really taken our time to find the right person to engage with the wider intermediary market. Nyedzi’s international background, experience and team spirit made her an ideal Business Development Manager to look after new verticals for Borro.
“As a company Borro continues to work closely with the intermediary market to ensure professional advisers have a full understanding of what we do and how we can help service the needs of new and existing clients. Nyedzi will certainly prove to be an integral link in this chain as the business looks to develop even closer ties with sports and entertainment as well as with the intermediary market.
Nyedzi Kpokpoya commented:
"Borro has an innovative portfolio of services which provide solutions to a range of funding issues and more and more brokers are really starting to embrace the concept of using personal assets as security for a loan. I look forward to working closely with the affiliate market to ensure that they and their clients are really getting to grips with the benefits attached to our products while receiving a top quality level of personal service and expertise.”
