With the economic environment uncertain amid rising rates and costs, brokers are needed more than ever to solidify the best and most reliable finance partnerships for their clients. This is why we’re ending the year by celebrating a variety of unique personalities within the market.
The People Issue provides interviews with key professionals about their journey in the sector and who inspired them along the way, why specialist advice will become increasingly important in 2023, and why having a background in both lending and broking offers an advantage.
- Why partnering with the right lender is integral when times are uncertain
- 'We are still far behind where we need to be to make significant change'
- EXCLUSIVE: £931.8m of regulated bridging loans completed in 2021
We look at how female leaders can help encourage and inspire more women into the financial services industry, why neurodiversity should be embraced and the topic on everyone’s minds right now—should clients be fixing their bridging loans?
We also interview those who have recently taken new leadership roles, including UTB’s new director of bridging Sundeep Patel, Sancus’ UK managing director Richard Whitehouse, and Spring Finance’s CEO Gavin Diamond.
As discussed in this issue’s In Conversation roundtable, borrowers will need to invest in quality and reliable advice, backed by solid industry experience, to ensure their projects are fully funded and successful in a volatile market. One expert summed this up perfectly: “The brokers who’ve been around for a while—specialist advisers and consultants who’ve come back into the market from the banking world—are going to be sought after because their knowledge is based on reality.”
