Accident Exchange ‘not replacing Gupta’
Credit hire company Accident Exchange said it does not expect to replace chief operating officer Daksh Gupta, who resigned last month after less than a year with the business.
Instead, founder and chief executive Steve Evans plans to devote more time to operational and cash management aspects of the business.
Gupta joined the company in January, having moved from Inchcape, where he was director of its Mercedes-Benz franchise.
In its pre-close statement, the company said the first six months trading this financial year were “broadly in line with expectations”. Rental days have increased to 510,000 from 290,000 in the same period in 2006, and it has secured a contract with a second insurer to provide prestige credit hire services to its customers.
