Commenting on the appointment, Ian Strafford-Taylor, Chief
Executive Officer of FairFX said:
"I am delighted that Ben is joining us as our CPMO. Constant
development of products allied with imaginative and cost-effective
marketing is absolutely fundamental to our success. Ben has an
excellent track-record in both these areas and his appointment
augments our strong internal team, to which he will bring fresh
impetus and innovation. In addition, the timing of his appointment
is ideal in terms of formulating the short, medium and longer term
plans for the Group post the recent acquisition of CardOne
