Tony Solway, Chairman of TISA, commented:
"On behalf of the TISA Board and all our members, I would like to thank Tony for all the excellent work he has done for our Association and the industry as a whole.  TISA has achieved much over the years of his tenure to improve policy, process and products in our industry, and especially the ISA – the most successful savings vehicle of modern times".

 Tony Vine-Lott said:
"I am pleased to be able to hand over the reins at a time when the range of our activity and the scale of our membership has never been greater.  The need for a financial services association that puts the consumer’s interests first has never been more important and will, ultimately, lead to a healthier industry for the benefit of all.  TISA is that Association and I wish it every success in the future".

Notes for Editors
TISA is a not-for-profit membership association operating within the financial services industry.  We represent the interests of over 145 member firms involved in the supply and distribution of savings and investment products and services.
 
TISA has a highly successful track record in working cooperatively with government, regulators, HMT, DWP and HMRC to improve the performance of the industry and the outcomes for consumers. Policy and regulation continues to be the major focus for our members with regard to corporate responsibility.
 
TISA and its members’ remit is evolving into a clearer focus on pro-active consultation in the regulatory world in order to influence policy and associated regulation before its creation, rather than reacting to issued policy directives. This will help to ensure a more considered policy creation from the authorities.
