A reorganisation at Welcome Financial Services will see 30 branches
of the subprime lender closed, with around 500 job losses.
Margaret Young, executive chairman and a
former non-executive director of Welcome FS, which is owned by the
lender Cattles, said: “These proposed changes are central to
Cattles achieving a more cost efficient business model which
mirrors current levels of lending activity. Cattles is still in
constructive discussions with its key financial creditors to obtain
a standstill agreement.”
