Lease insurance specialists Acquis Insurance Management and industry consultancy Challenge Consulting have joined Leaseurope as associate members.

The firms are the latest to join the leasing trade body’s membership area for non-leasing companies which work with the industry, taking the number of associates to 12.

Tanguy van de Werve, Leaseurope’s director general, welcomed the new members, and said: "When setting up the Associate Membership Programme a couple of years ago, our purpose was to better support the communities we represent at European level and offer additional opportunities for networking, exchanging views and best practices as well as to leverage expertise across the board.

"Building a truly European platform for the benefit of the industry is one of our key objectives."

Nick Leader, business development director at Acquis, said: "Our partner clients are all within the leasing and finance industry and our products and services aim to support their interests, whether the objective is generating additional fee income, managing risk, minimizing their administrative burden or enhancing their finance offerings.

"Being an associate member of Leaseurope will help us to stay close to the issues our clients face within the industry and enable us to create solutions to help meet the needs and challenges they face in this changing environment".
