FIBA expands executive committee with Liz Syms and Andrea Juniper

FIBA evolved from the Association of Bridging Professionals and aims to become "the natural home for all advisers and lenders", regardless of their particular lending sector of interest, but will maintain its current emphasis on specialist property finance.

Executive chairman Adam Tyler said: “We are delighted to welcome Liz and Andrea to FIBA’s executive committee. Allied to the expertise of our existing committee members, Liz and Andrea’s experience of the industry and strong profiles among advisers will be of immense value to FIBA as we aim to engage with advisers up and down the country this year.”

Liz Syms commented: “I am very honoured to be chosen to be part of the executive committee and excited to join the team of extremely high calibre board members. As the CEO of a specialist network of buy-to-let and commercial advisers, I hope this experience will enable me to deliver on the FIBA mission statement to help support finance professionals to deliver outstanding solutions and services to their clients.”

Andrea Juniper added: “FIBA’s importance is unquestionable and for me to play a part in continuing the great work already achieved, is a role I will take very seriously and look forward to working with the team. I have observed the need for quality control and to a large extent the policing of our industry to be the most important attributes to ensure longevity and stability for both lenders and brokers/intermediaries.”
