ALLIANCE & LEICESTER LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in United Kingdom under 03263713, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 10 October 1996 and lists its registered address as LEICESTER, United Kingdom. 1 shareholder is on record for ALLIANCE & LEICESTER LIMITED, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Companies House and was last updated on 1 October 2026.

Shareholders of ALLIANCE & LEICESTER LIMITED

One shareholder is currently on record for ALLIANCE & LEICESTER LIMITED, held on the Confirmation Statement (CS01), filed under the Companies Act 2006.

Directors and officers of ALLIANCE & LEICESTER LIMITED

Three of the 5 officer records shown for ALLIANCE & LEICESTER LIMITED are current appointments, filed with Companies House. Rosamund Rule (appointed 2022-09-30) and Matthew Richardson (appointed 2023-08-08) both serve as Director; SANTANDER SECRETARIAT SERVICES LIMITED (appointed 2013-11-06) serves as Company Secretary. The remaining 2 records shown (Christopher Wise and Stephen Affleck) are former appointments that have since been resigned. Management authority at ALLIANCE & LEICESTER LIMITED sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control. The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.
