It’s Reserves Day in the UK today - an opportunity to celebrate amazing individuals who give up their spare time to make a contribution to the nation’s defence. GLAS would like to introduce you to our own Reservist, Lieutenant Tom Vanson. Tom is based at HMS President in London and specialises in Information Warfare. When he’s at his job with us, he is a Senior Transaction Manager based in our London headquarters. Tom said, “I joined the Royal Navy Reserves back in July 2014 seeking adventure and to give something back. During this time I’ve served on the frigate HMS Richmond as well as spending time training in Gibraltar and more recently working at the Ministry of Defence in London.” To Tom and all Reservists, thank you for your dedication and service. Have you spotted a colleague in uniform today? Take a moment to express your gratitude! 🙏 #ReservesDay #SaluteOurForces #weareGLAS

We were lucky to be joined by so many of our global team and industry peers in Paris last week to celebrate the completion of our acquisition of Pristine.

Together, GLAS and Pristine are now poised to provide even greater value to our joint customer base, underpinned by award winning service and a wealth of expertise, all under one roof. A big thank you to all of our clients, partners and friends that joined us to celebrate this significant milestone on our growth journey! #weareGLAS

A busy week of events for GLAS ended with our very own Manuj Sharma exhibiting at yesterday's Loan Market Association (LMA) Loans Operations Conference in London. Manuj was the voice of the loan agency on one of the "Timeline analysis, a deep dive into the milestones” roundtables, giving the audience an insight into which types of transactions have the highest acceptance figures and which are most commonly rejected by agencies. GLAS is the premier independent, non-creditor provider of loan agency services, and yesterday's event was a fantastic opportunity to showcase this whilst sharing some impactful data to an engaged audience. #weareGLAS
