Prior to his recent posting, Bowen (pictured) was the Australasia managing director for Volvo Financial Services, and brings with him a wealth of experience in the asset finance industry, totalling more than 35 years.

During his time at Volvo, Bowen formed Volvo Finance Australia, setup financial programmes across Asia and also established a dedicated bus and coach finance operation for Volvo Bus Corporation in North America.

Bowen said: “I am delighted to be joining the Invigors team. The European vehicle and equipment asset finance markets are facing major challenges driven not just by the political upheavals in the UK and Europe but also by the revolution in technology taking place throughout the industry.

“I am looking forward to helping our clients maximise opportunities presented by those challenges as their business models evolve to meet the changing markets in Europe and elsewhere.”

Invigors EMEA is a consulting and technical services company operating primarily within the asset and vehicle finance industries.

Chris Boobyer, senior partner at Invigors, said: “Tor brings a wealth of experience and expertise in vehicle and equipment finance across captive, bank-owned and independent leasing organisations. We are delighted he is joining the team and believe he will add strength and depth to our existing capabilities here in EMEA and also within the wider Alta Group.”
