My   team’s   history   and   experience   in   financial   services,   investment   and property lending is quite simply vast.  For    twenty-five    years    I    owned    and    ran    one    of    the    most    efficient    and successful   mortgage   and   loan   packagers   in   the   country.   At   its   peak   we employed   thirty-five   staff   and   operated   in   both   the   regulated   and   non- regulated    markets.    We    were    directly    authorised    by    The    UK    Financial Services Authority (The FSA) for nine years between 2004 to 2013. In   2010,   to   take   advantage   of   a   change   in   market   conditions   I   founded “Central   Bridging”,   a   privately   funded   principal   lender   in   the   short-term business lending market. Joining    me    on    this    journey    were    the    very    best    of    my    long-standing colleagues,   who   some   ten   years   later,   now   form   our   core   team,   each   with a   minimum   of   twenty   years   of   service.   Together   we   can   call   upon   over   a hundred    years    of    cumulative    knowledge    at    the    forefront    of    financial services, investment and lending. Coupled   with   the   services   of   our   longstanding   legal   partners   in   London, we    have    built    an    extremely    strong    and    credible    position    as    principal lenders   in   our   industry,   working   with   an   exceptional   number   of   HNW, UHNW & corporate investor partners who fund our lending. We   have   arranged   loans   for   a   broad   range   of   clients,   including   numerous overseas     investors,     offshore     companies,     UK     businesses,     solicitors, accountants,    barristers,    Queen’s    Counsels,    property    developers    and sports   professionals   to   name   but   a   few.   These   loans,   a   mixture   of   first and   second   charges,   have   always   been   secured   on   prime   UK   residential and    commercial    property,    over    loan    terms    of    three    to    twenty-four months, occasionally longer. We      are      longstanding      lender      patron      members      of      the      NACFB (www.nacfb.org.uk)   and   work   closely   and   collaboratively   with   the   CEOs   of all   the   major   trade   associations   to   influence   and   guide   standards   and   the shape of our industry. Whilst   we   lend   in   the   unregulated   business   lending   sector,   we   have   an extensive   range   of   regulatory   and   compliance   knowledge.   Furthermore, we     retain     the     services     of     arguably     the     industry’s     most     respected compliance    consultants.    We    apply    a    very    simple    business    ethos    of “lending   money   as   if   it   were   our   own”   and   always   work   vigorously   to protect our investors interests.  To   learn   more   about   the   opportunity   of   working   with   us,   please   submit your   details   below   and   one   of   my   team   will   organise   a   personal   call   in the first instance.
