The convention, held by the Finance and

standards.
Speakers will include Chris Sutton, managing
director of Black Horse Motor Finance, Paul Harrop, national sales
manager for Mercedes-Benz Financial Services, Philip Ross from
Honda Finance Europe and Ruth Lea from the Arbuthnot Banking Group.

The FLA event has become a key fixture in the
busy Q4 events calendar, with last year’s event seeing the FSA take
