Alfa has reported an impressive haul for its customers at the 2023 Asset Finance Connect awards.

"Louise somehow balances high-quality service in business-as-usual operations with managing a very ambitious change agenda."
Close Brothers Asset Finance was recognised in two areas: Lender of the Year (shared with Simply Asset Finance), and the much coveted Environment Award. Close was described as leading the way in a number of renewable sectors, including onshore wind farms, battery storage, and EV leasing.
