Commenting on the appointments, Kevin Kenny, Group Chief Executive, said:
"We are delighted to have completed the final stage of our reengineering
programme. Miller Fisher Group is now one entity, with one focus, and that is
to consolidate and improve on our position as a leading provider of
outsourcing services to the insurance and financial services industries. We
will now build on the solid foundation that we have created over the past year
to further develop the range and quality of services that our clients have
come to expect from us. With the new team in place, we look forward to the
future with confidence."
