TMA on the way to Wembley

Published on

The Mortgage Alliance (TMA) is to hold two focus groups for directly authorised brokers at Wembley Stadium and Old Trafford.

The event held at Wembley Stadium will take place on Thursday 20 May and the one at Old Trafford will be held in Manchester on Thursday 27 May.

Both of these training and development days are free to attend and will include a market update and a review session covering the Mortgage Market and Retail Distribution Reviews. These sessions will be followed by a stadium tour and lunch.

Phil Whitehouse, head of TMA, said: “One of TMA’s main aims of 2010 is to get even closer to our members in order to get a real feel for their requirements in the current financial climate. Through feedback received brokers are still somewhat unsure of the potential effects of the MMR and RDR on their business going forward so we felt these were important areas to address. Unfortunately due to health and safety requirements attendees won’t be allowed onto the Wembley pitch although we are looking at seeking permission to issue appropriate footwear with non-slip soles!”””
