Bibby Financial Services has appointed Steven Box as international chief executive officer, overseeing the company’s businesses in Europe, the US and Asia.  

 

Apart from the European business, Box will be responsible for the operations in Canada, the US, India, Hong Kong, Singapore and Malaysia where the funder opened an office in August 2015.

 

His appointment comes following the sale of Bibby’s Australian and New Zealand business to Scottish Pacific in December 2015. The company will look to focus and grow across Asia, Europe and the Americas, in addition to building on its existing transactional capabilities.

 

Prior to joining Bibby as European CEO in June 2015, Box held a number of roles at HSBC where he spent 35 years, 22 of which in the receivables finance and trade & supply chain business. His most recent role with the bank was global head of receivables finance, covering over 25 countries with businesses ranging from startups to multinationals.
