John Webb, Head of Commercial Credit Risk at 4most, said: “I am delighted to be joining 4most to work alongside some of the industry’s most respected credit risk consultants. Banks are facing numerous challenges over the next few years to implement required regulations in the context of wider geo-political and economic instability and I look forward to working with the 4most team and our clients to effectively overcome these hurdles”.
