Industry veteran Paul Howard retires from Castle Trust

He spent 13 years at Bank of Ireland Mortgages until 1998 before spending two years as sales and marketing director at Mortgages PLC. After this he became head of corporate accounts at Nationwide in January 2002 where he stayed for a decade.

Matthew Wyles, Senior Adviser, Castle Trust, said:
 
“Paul has made an immeasurably important contribution to the dramatic acceleration in Castle Trust’s growth and has helped me lay sound foundations upon which we are now building a strong franchise in the market.  The potential for equity loans in the UK mortgage market is vast – we are only just scratching the surface.”
 
Paul Howard, Castle Trust, said:
 
“Matthew knew that I could only commit to a finite period with Castle Trust and that I always intended to take up the lifestyle opportunities afforded by retirement.  My current contract expires in May of this year and I feel that is the right moment to pass on the baton to someone who can commit for the longer term.”
