Simon said the appointment showed the journey that CrowdProperty had been on so far and the recognition of what lay ahead. 

“His experience of working in senior roles at global financial institutions will help us enormously as we manage the next phase of our growth.  

“I am looking forward to Mark helping us make this business even more successful.”

CrowdProperty has recently broken through the £5m mark of funds raised from private investors, representing a 127% increase from last year.

“The growth of peer-to-peer lenders has been a welcome development in the UK’s financial services market and they offer an excellent and complementary alternative to conventional retail banks,” Mark added. 

“I can’t wait to bring my experience in the banking world to the peer-to-peer market and CrowdProperty was the obvious choice from my perspective to realise this ambition.”
