Why we chose Remit? Automotive is the core for Remit..it’s also their ability to change. The automotive industry is changing massively and it’s changing quicker and quicker and Remit have that ability to change and it’s driven all the way through. We’ve worked with the Scottish arm of the business for some years now and we’ve found that relationship to be really productive so my thoughts would be that would spread across the business, and my thoughts would be correct.
