Lendi Group is a prominent player in Australia's fintech industry, focusing on enhancing the property lending process. The company leverages technology to streamline home loan applications and decision-making, aiming to improve the overall customer experience in the mortgage industry. Today, Lendi Group is Australia’s largest retail broker. It has a network of 1,200 brokers and a loan book just over $70 billion.
Founded in 2013 by David Hyman, Sebastian Watkins, Martin Lam, and Mark Kalajzich, Lendi made its mark by offering borrowers transparency and choice. In a parallel journey, Aussie, established by John Symond in 1992, revolutionised the Australian mortgage broking industry. These two entities merged in May 2021, creating the formidable Lendi Group. This merger combined the strengths of Aussie's extensive broker network and Lendi's digital innovation, heralding a new era in property lending.
Lendi Group operates through two main brands, Lendi and Aussie, each offering unique experiences to customers while striving to fulfill the Australian dream of home ownership:
Lendi Group is characterised by a community-driven culture that values innovation, flexibility, and inclusivity. The company champions a "Flex First" approach, promoting balance and success irrespective of geographical constraints. This ethos is underpinned by a strong commitment to diversity and inclusion, ensuring a welcoming environment for all employees.
David Hyman leads Lendi Group as its CEO, backed by a seasoned executive team comprising founders from both Lendi and Aussie. Under his leadership, the group has seen exponential growth, cementing its position as a leader in the property lending sector. Hyman's vision focuses on leveraging technology to simplify the lending process, making property ownership more attainable for Australians.
Looking ahead, Lendi Group is poised for continued growth, driven by its innovative approach to property lending. The company's commitment to closing the gap between borrowers and lenders, enhancing broker and customer experiences, and streamlining lending processes positions it well to redefine the future of home lending in Australia.
