Avant Appoints New CFO To Its Leadership Team

Chicago-based master agent Avant brought on Brendan Taylor as CFO last month. Taylor, who is originally from London, will help bolster Avant's European expansion plans, according to the master agent.

Taylor is joining Avant from Chicago-based technology and services provider CVM Solutions, a Kroll Company, where he served as managing director. Taylor has spent more than 15 years working in various finance and accounting roles. 

Avant expanded internationally into the United Kingdom during 2016. Taylor's financial experience and international expertise will help the master agent make solid investments and grow agent revenue in 2017.
