UK peer-to-peer lending platform Assetz Capital has now lent over a quarter of a billion pounds since its launch in 2013.
The alternative finance platform helps small and medium-sized British businesses and house builders acquire funding.
It is now providing secured loans totalling GBP25 million per month and has lent more than GBP55 million in 2017 to date.
Stuart Law, CEO and co-founder of Assetz Capital says: “Assetz Capital’s growth remains strong and shows no signs of slowing down. It’s testament to the fantastic team and our cautious yet flexible approach that means we’re celebrating our quarter of a billion lent milestone.”
Confidence is growing in the peer-to-peer sector, as investors look for higher risk-adjusted returns and more borrowers see the advantages of dealing with peer-to-peer lenders.
Law adds: “Assetz Capital now has large scale, profits and cash generation – all of which has been delivered whilst investors also earn fair rates of return and borrowers have fair access to capital. We pride ourselves on improving our services based on feedback and do everything in our power to ensure we can provide an offering that our investors both want, and have now come to expect.”
