eMoneyUnion enlists expertise to disrupt market

P2P lender eMoneyUnion is planning to disrupt the market as it announced the appointment of three leading figures to its team.

Derek Zissman, Sir John Hegarty and Tom Teichman will also be making a six figure investment as they team up to provide the perfect cocktail and ensure the success of eMoneyUnion.

“This is a real coup for the business,” said Lee Birkett of eMoneyUnion.    

“It is testimony of our credibility and opportunity that we can bring such great people to be part of the Union.”

Sir John Hegarty, who was the founder of the global agency Bartle Bogle and Hegarty, added: “We are always looking for business and brands to disrupt the market just as Spotify transformed music buying and Uber transformed car transport.”

“I can’t think of a market more ripe for disruption, nor a company better placed to do it.”

Former vice-chairman of KPMG Derek Zissman added: “It seems to me that there is huge demand for new ways of borrowing and lending and eMoneyUnion has the credentials to make a success of this exciting opportunity.”

Venture capitalist Tom Teichman described the link up as the “perfect union.”

“We liked eMoneyUnion of all the P2P players we met because they felt the most financially savvy and experienced,” said Tom.

Lee explained that eMoneyUnion can do everything traditional banks and building societies can, only better.

“We are there to serve borrowers and lenders, not sell to them,” said Lee.

“If we can make sure they can help each other easily, we can become the new financial co-operative movement.”
