Amigo Holdings PLC - guarantor loans provider - Says Chief Financial Officer Mike Corcoran steps down with immediate effect, though will support business through handover period. Amigo expects it will be able to announce his replacement in "near future". Chair Jonathan Roe says Corcoran was "instrumental in developing the financial models required in support of the Scheme of Arrangement proposals". "Since he joined the business in November 2020, Mike has made a significant contribution to the work undertaken to deal with the many issues that have arisen from historical lending at Amigo," says Roe.

Corcoran's departure comes same day Amigo warned of insolvency if a new business scheme and equity raise are not approved. The scheme is being proposed to settle claims following probes from UK regulators into mis-sold loans and the way that Amigo dealt with customer complaints.

Amigo said that, as detailed last month, its new business scheme proposes an initial contribution of GBP97 million, to be generated from internal resources. A significant proportion of this will be derived from the run-down of the existing loan book.

It plans to raise capital within one year of the court sanction of the new business scheme.
