LiveMore Appoints Charles Roe as Industry Adviser
LiveMore has appointed Charles Roe, former director of mortgages at UK Finance, as its new industry adviser. Roe stepped down from his position at UK Finance on 31 March to pursue a portfolio of non-executive appointments.
Roe led the mortgages function at UK Finance since the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic. His previous roles include head of department for mortgages and mutuals at the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), as well as senior leadership positions at Nottingham Building Society, Grant Thornton UK, and within the economic crime department of the City of London Police.
LiveMore chief executive Leon Diamond stated that Roe's expertise and understanding of relevant policy position him well to support the company's efforts in the later life mortgage category.
This appointment may be of interest to UK letting agents and inventory clerks monitoring leadership changes and policy expertise within the mortgage sector, particularly as it relates to later life lending and product innovation.
