Directorate Change

Fiinu Plc (AIM: BANK), the fintech group and creator of the Plugin Overdraft®, announces the appointment of two new directors and the resignation of one Independent Non Executive Director.

Mark Wallace has informed the Company that, for personal and health reasons, he has decided to resign as an Independent Non Executive Director of Fiinu, with immediate effect, and will not take up his position as Chair of the Company's Polish foreign exchange subsidiary, which has been renamed Fiinu P.S.A.. That position, on an interim basis, will be taken up by David Hopton, the Fiinu Plc Chair. Mark has made a valuable contribution during his all too brief time with the Company, and the Board wishes him well for a full and speedy recovery.

The Company is pleased to announce the appointment of Paul Barnes as an Independent Non Executive Director of Fiinu Plc, with immediate effect. Paul brings extensive general management expertise, particularly in treasury and liquidity management, short term markets trading (including securities financing and foreign exchange), and business growth.

Paul was part of the senior management teams at Santander Corporate and Investment Banking ("SCIB") and Santander UK. He served as a Managing Director, member of the SCIB London Executive Committee and a member of the SCIB European Markets Executive Committee, as well as sitting on the Santander UK Asset and Liability Committee. Externally he represented Santander on the Bank of England Money Markets Liaison Committee, The London Money Market Association, and was the Industry elected Chair of the UK Liquidity Managers Committee under UK Finance.

In addition, the Board has approved the appointment of Michael Hopton to the Board of Fiinu Plc as an Executive Director and Group Chief Operating Officer, with Board responsibility for Finance, Operations and Risk, also with immediate effect. Michael, who joined the Group in July 2025 as Chief Operating Officer, has also been serving as interim CFO and oversaw the production of the Group's interim results.

Michael is a seasoned banking Chief Operating Officer with over two decades of experience spanning sales, risk management, operations, and technology across leading global financial institutions.

His early career included roles at Citigroup, Société Générale, and Barclays Capital, where he worked across capital markets in sales and operations. In the latter half, he held senior Financial Markets COO positions at Standard Chartered, where he led global operational teams, supporting corporate and institutional clients.
