Barclays Partner Finance to be the new name for Clydesdale Financial Services

With effect from 3rd December 2007, Glasgow based Clydesdale Financial Services will become known as Barclays Partner Finance. The rebrand to Barclays Partner Finance means that the point-of-sale finance provider will enjoy much greater recognition with corporate and individual customers.

The newly named Barclays Partner Finance is based in Glasgow and employs over 300 people in the city. Clydesdale Financial Services Ltd (CFS) was originally founded over 60 years ago and has grown to a point where it supports 5,000 corporate clients in offering their customers finance options when they make a purchase from them. CFS was acquired by Barclays in 2003 and the rebrand to Barclays Partner Finance will provide a more consistent experience for existing and potential clients and customers.

Craig Murray, Retail Managing Director at Barclays Partner Finance said, “This is a major move for our business. We’re confident that the change of name will help support our continued growth and offer greater recognition of the business.” He continued, “We’ll continue to be active in our traditional market of Retail POS on the high street, whilst continuing to grow in other areas such as timeshare, home improvements and healthcare and we’ll keep delivering so our customers can offer their customers the very best finance options available.”

Clients that Barclays Partner Finance provides services for include HMC Funding, Next Home, Dreams, SCS Furniture, Multiyork, Everest and Bang & Olufsen.
