Regulated and unregulated bridging loans

At the time, this was due to specialist finance lenders making up a tiny proportion of the wider lending market. After the global financial crisis, however, bridging loans became a popular option for investors in need of tailored finance that could be deployed quickly, no matter how complicated their financial circumstances were. The bridging sector is now worth over £4

I am not going to get into the philosophical debate about the merits of short-selling here, but if you think that you joining the market is going to enable short sellers further, think again. There are already over $20 trillion of securities available for loan from a broad array of investors segments around the world, so unless you have a huge small-cap portfolio that’s new to the market, it’s unlikely you will be changing the supply/demand dynamics.

Has Covid 19 Changed The Bridging Lending Market

Has Covid 19 Changed The Bridging Lending Market The lockdown period has proven to be a trying period for the property sector. With the UK Government actively discouraging people from moving property, lenders, borrowers, agencies and brokers were placed in a precarious position. Short-term relief measures were introduced to support those affected, but the lack of certainty made it incredibly difficult to prepare for the future. Finally, it looks as though things could be returning back to relative normality. I say relative because we still do not know when social distancing measures will be lifted entirely. Some people are more confident than others, and while the number of cases is dropping, there is nothing to say a second outbreak is completely out of the equation.

Importance of an Exit Strategy and Property Development Finance

Importance of an Exit Strategy and Property Development Finance

There are several ways to arrange property development finance and several types of lenders in the market. What is common to them all is their need to understand and to have confidence in the way that they are going to be paid back. So, lenders will ask a number of questions at application stage about how this is going to be achieved and they will form an opinion on the credibility of the borrower’s strategy.

By definition, if you are engaging in a property development, it is only going to last as long

Debt or Equity Financing For Your Business

Debt or Equity Financing For Your Business

When in need of financing a company stands before the choice of whether to use debt or equity financing. Debt financing is when funds are borrowed from for example a bank or a friend, whilst equity financing is when an investor receives ownership interest in the company in exchange for funds or assets. Debt as well as equity can be structured in different ways, and the distinction may not always be fully clear, as the case may be with convertible debentures or loans where the interest rate or repayment obligation is correlated with the results or financial standing of the Company. Two of the main advantages of traditional debt financing are that the creditor does not get any direct influence over the business and that
