The P2P lender has completed 15 deals in Northern Ireland – totalling £26.3m – since launching in Belfast’s financial district.
The deals include a mixture of SME secured loans, commercial mortgages, bridging loans, property investment loans and development transactions.

Andrew Fraser, relationship director for Northern Ireland at Assetz Capital (pictured above), said that there had been a strong appetite for P2P funding in the region.
“We’ve made good progress since opening the Belfast office five months ago, and have continued to back ambitious business owners and property investors in Northern Ireland from the outset.
“While lending £26m in such a short timeframe is notable, we now have our sights set on the £50m milestone.
“There is a strong pipeline of deals for the second half of the year and we’re confident that – with the ongoing support of our customers and broker network – we will see similar levels of lending during this period.”
