Finsbury is a PR company owned by WPP with clients that include Cable & Wireless, the HMV Media Group, Abbey National, Trinity Mirror and Lloyds TSB. They have 28 clients in the FTSE 100/Euro 300 list of top UK/Euro companies and they provide PR for more than 10% of the top 200 UK companies. They paid more than £5,000 to the Labour Party for 'tickets for dinners' in 1999-2000. Finsbury is 75% owned by Roland Rudd, who made £41 million by selling the company to WPP in May 2001. Another two Directors, Rupert Younger and James Murgatroyd, will share another £14 million between them from the sale.
Roland Rudd is the son of a Stockbroker. He was President of the Union at Oxford University and a former journalist with the Independent, Sunday Correspondent and the Financial Times. He is a friend of Peter Mandleson, spending time during the 2001 election campaign to help him at his Hartlepool constituency. Rupert Younger is the nephew of Viscount George Younger (Chairman of the Bank of Scotland). James Murgatroyd is a former banker with Dean Witter.
