Paul Goodman has been appointed as the chairman of the National Association of Commercial Finance Brokers (NACFB) for the next two years.

The appointment was made after an election which took place during the association’s first board meeting of the year.

Goodman, managing director of Goodman Corporate Finance, has been a member of the board for the last four years. He has already held the roles of finance director and vice chairman.

Following his appointment, Goodman said: "I am keen for the NACFB to focus on its core principles, particularly around continuing to raise standards within our industry. I also want to adopt a more collaborative approach between all our members and patrons to enrich those relationships.

"We should look to leverage our strength, celebrate our successes, seek new strategic alliances and embrace the changes in our market.

"The NACFB, its members and patrons need to play a key role in securing a sustainable recovery and help UK businesses achieve their growth ambitions by providing commercial finance across the whole spectrum.
