Appointment of Robert Bright to the Strategy and Integration Advisory Board

 

Quindell Portfolio Plc (AIM: QPP.L), the brand extension company and a leading practice provider of consultancy, software and outsourcing in its key markets, is pleased to announce the appointment of Robert Bright to its Strategy and Integration Advisory Board.

Robert has over 35 years of managerial experience within the Insurance industry, with over 25 years as part of the HSBC senior management team. During this time Robert was a Main Board Director of HSBC Insurance Brokers Limited responsible for HSBC Select (UK) Ltd ("HSBC Select"). HSBC Select employed 600 people developing white label and brand extension products for both commercial and personal lines insurance for affinities and independent intermediaries as well as their own brand, AutoDirect. Over a 10 year period HSBC Select grew from a standing start to an income of £19.6m generating £4m of pre-tax profit.

 

In 2003 Robert successfully negotiated a management buy out of HSBC Select, subsequently known as The OutRight Company (UK) Ltd. and developed and delivered a successful white label business strategy, producing £100m premium throughput by the end of 2005. HSBC Select was also complimented by the FSA on being the best operation in its sector during 2005.

In 2005 Robert structured the sale of The OutRight Company to Fortis Group (now Ageas), at a substantial premium, at which point he became Non Executive Director on the Board responsible for RIAS plc and a range of its products. Robert has continued this role with Ageas UK Limited and is on the Main UK Board as Non Executive Director responsible for retail operations, which includes KwikFit Insurance.

 

Outside of Ageas Robert currently holds a number of operational directorships, primarily within the financial services sector, including the Chairmanship of a Commercial broker, Denmark Green & Associates.

 

Rob Terry, Chairman and Chief Executive of Quindell said: "It is a great honour to have Bob on our Strategy and Integration Advisory Board. Bob has clearly demonstrated his ability to approach the insurance market in a different way as well as a clear ability to deliver new and innovative solutions. This experience and focus will be of enormous benefit to Quindell as we seek to help insurers, brokers and their supply chain partners challenge and reform the current operating models."

 

Commenting on his appointment Robert Bright said: "I am delighted to be joining Quindell's Strategy and Integration Advisory Board. I believe that there is a great opportunity in the marketplace at this time to introduce significant change and, through Quindell's vision for integrated services, Alternative Business Structures and broader brand extension the Company is uniquely placed to take advantage of this."
