Global shipbroking group Affinity (Shipping) has hired six staff from Lorentzen & Co, which declared bankruptcy last week.
Affinity Dry, the group’s bulker-focused arm, will set up a new base in New York with ex-Lorentzen staff.
Nick Tangney will be managing director of the new office, alongside John Geoghegan, who is joining as director of business development, plus broker Bob Tangney.
