Commenting on today's announcement, Lisa Gordon, Chair said:

"I am delighted to welcome Mark to Cavendish and look forward to working with him. His appointment ensures that the Board has substantial and differential investment banking and client service experience as we continue to build on our strategic potential following our merger in September.

Robert - as Chairman - successfully led finnCap through a period of complex strategic and leadership change and was a tremendous partner in the creation of the new combined Group. On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank him for his significant contribution to the Board both pre-merger and during the integration of our businesses, which is now complete."

Commenting on his appointment, Mark Astaire said:

"Cavendish is a unique full-service investment bank focused on the small and mid-market, with the largest AIM client base and strong M&A franchises both in private and public company transactions.
