No matter how strong the relationship, banks have their own policies, goals and objectives. That said, all bankers also have one thing in common - "they don't like surprises".

So how could your clients approach their bank when financial difficulties are encountered? There is no single answer. But whatever the right answer David Hovell will probably know what it is.

David joined the firm as an Associate last year after a successful career in corporate, insolvency and turnaround banking in East Anglia. If you have a client where the continued support from their bank is threatened David's experience could be a great help. David can be contacted on our freephone number 0800 085 5070.
