People LGB Capital Markets win the Simply Cup 2024 Published: 16th January 2024 Share The asset finance community united last week for the Simply Cup 2024, a charity football tournament in aid of Cancer Research UK (CRUK). 26 teams (almost 200 people) came together from across the industry and beyond to make a difference and connect through sport in a bid to be crowned winners of the 2024 Simply Cup. And the victorious team and winners of the Simply Cup 2024 were LGB Capital Markets who faced reigning Simply Cup champions, Audeo Financial Services, in the final. Fergus Rendall, Director at LGB Capital Markets commented: “It was fantastic to take part in the Simply Cup, which was a great demonstration of the level of collaboration and goodwill across the asset finance community. Some great football was played by lots of strong teams, so we were elated to get our hands on the prestigious Simply Cup! A massive thanks must go to Simply for organising such a well-run event. Finally, the most important thing, is the huge amount the event raised for such a fantastic cause in Cancer Research UK.” The 2024 Simply Cup, sponsored by Acquis, generated a huge amount of support from the asset finance industry that allowed Simply Asset Finance to put the event on for all to enjoy. And, so far, a significant amount has been raised for CRUK with donations still coming in at: https://fundraise.cancerresearchuk.org/page/the-simply-cup Mike Randall, CEO at Simply said: “I am overwhelmed by the support we have received from our friends across the industry for the Simply Cup. The energy in the venue last Thursday was unmatched, with some healthy competition and great football taking place, all in the name of a fantastic cause. I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has donated to and supported this event. We can’t wait for the next one!” Lisa Laverick Editor - Asset Finance Connect Sign up to our newsletter Featured Stories AppointmentsPolestar appoints Jonas Engström Chief Operating Officer Leasing ProfessionalsAFPA Trust spreads festive cheer with 12 Days of Christmas giveaway Corporate Member Thought LeadersFCA Board Report findings: Key insights for asset finance
