Partner and head of recoveries services group (RSG) at law firm Shoosmiths, Waine Mannix, has been named as one of the most influential in the credit industry according to magazine Credit Today’s ‘Credit 100’ list.
The list, entitled ‘Influence in the realm of credit risk, collections and debt recovery’, is likened to a Who’s Who guide of the top 100 names in the industry, and was revealed at the magazine’s Credit Summit on 7 April.
Waine sits among other big hitters on the list, including those who hold positions as head of collections for major banks and lenders, and lead partners in other professional services firms.
Shoosmiths’ Waine Mannix said: ‘It is an honour to have been listed in Credit Today’s Credit 100 for 2016.
