ABBEY AND ALLIANCE & LEICESTER MANAGEMENT CHANGES |
Abbey National plc ("Abbey") and Alliance & Leicester plc ("A&L") have announced the following changes to an Executive Director's responsibilities. Alison Brittain, Executive Director, has been appointed to take responsibility for A&L Retail Distribution including its 254 branch network and telephone distribution channel. This will be in addition to her current executive responsibilities for Abbey and Bradford & Bingley ("B&B") Retail Distribution.
The decision accelerates the integration process and follows A&L's current Director of Retail Distribution Chris Rhodes' decision to leave the business. Chris will remain with A&L until March 2009 in order to ensure a smooth handover. There are no current plans to merge A&L's Retail Distribution channels with Abbey and B&B branch and telephone distribution network.
The changes will be effective immediately and are subject to FSA approval.
