News of Bank of Ireland Acquisition

Marshall Leasing is in the process of being acquired by Bank of Ireland. This represents the next stage in the development of our business. Bank of Ireland has identified Marshall Leasing as an attractive acquisition, based upon our reputation, and the success we can demonstrate over many years. In today’s evolving financial sector this new relationship will empower and broaden our business capabilities substantially.

We have had an extremely happy and successful history as part of the Marshall group, during which time we have seen the funded fleet grow to well over 6,000 vehicles. At the same time, we have secured a hard won reputation as a leading supplier of customer service within the sector, which has driven exceptional customer, and colleague, loyalty and retention. Indeed, many of our team, including myself, have been with the business for more than a quarter of a century. Now, we will seek to harness this undoubted service strength, combined with the advantages evident in having a Bank as our parent. This will allow us to ensure that Marshall Leasing is fully supported in our ambitions for further growth and success.

It’s going to be an exciting time and we look forward to becoming a significantly enhanced force in the industry.

Our senior management team of Peter Cakebread, Jonathan Ross, Phil Targett and Richard Baird will remain unchanged, and will continue to deliver for our customers as we have in the past. It will definitely be business as usual. Our existing customer base is the key to our success. As an important part of this base, I am grateful for your support and am fully aware that this needs to be continually earned by our actions.
