Editor Banking : Andy Miller

.

Andy is an experienced marketing manager and consultant

Andy spent 20 years working for leading financial service organisations. Management positions were held with Norwich Union, Avco Trust and Standard Chartered Bank Group. His earlier career included periods working for a leading credit card company and in Marketing Reasearch.

One of the objectives of the first company Andy founded was to provide concise global financial service information. This arose from the frustration of never having this information available when in corporate life. This service was developed originally under the name of the Swiss company established, futurevantage GmbH, and later under the SigBizInfo brand. Banking Information from these services was incorporated into Banking Newslink, which was formed in 2004. Early in 2011 Banking Newslink had on offer 20,000 articles available to subscribers.

Andy provides marketing and management consulting, marketing materials, supporting materials and white papers for companies of all sizes.
