Dave Matcham, Chief Executive of the IUA , said: “I am pleased to welcome both May and Faye to the IUA. They will greatly enhance our capability to effectively support more than 80 member firms in the London company market. More than 1,300 individuals now regularly participate in the dozens of market groups that we run and it is important that we provide each of these committees with a dedicated support team.”
