Paul Ratcliffe
Managing Director, Marine finance business, Bibby Financial Services Ltd (BFS)

Paul is the Managing Director for the marine finance business at BFS. He joins Shawbrook Bank where he was Director of Marine & Aviation and brings 40 years of expertise in maritime and asset finance to take the helm of BFS’s new marine finance business.  Paul has come full circle, having begun at Bibby Line Group in 1980, a clear demonstration of how the new business will combine both BFS’s shipping heritage and financing specialism. BFS has also appointed two further marine finance specialists to the team. The new marine finance business will enable BFS to expand its financing offers for SMEs, financing ships and vessels ranging from £1m to £10m in value.
