The Finance & Leasing Association is delighted that
London will host the 2012 Olympics.
Martin Hall, FLA Director General, comments, "This is fantastic news for London, the UK and the finance and leasing industry. The high level of investment needed to mount the 2012 Olympics, has got to be good news for asset finance. The sheer scale of the development, will provide tremendous opportunities for FLA members. Across the board, construction, technology, transport, service sector, community regeneration - every project will need flexible, competitive and secure financing - all of which asset finance can deliver on.
"This is our chance to show the world that the UK still leads the field on large scale initiatives and I look forward to the leasing industry playing its part. We support the Olympics as a London-based organisation and as the industry's representative."
