The Lending Channel gains award recognition

The Bank of Scotland business development team awarded the firm ‘Best Key Market Deal of 2015’ in Glasgow last week, while a few days later the firm made the final four in the Business Growth category at the Perthshire Chamber of Commerce Business Stars Awards.

The Lending Channel has also been shortlisted for the Loan Talk Awards, a national event for finance brokers taking place in London in January, in the Best Small Broker category.

The firm, run by brothers Alistair and Murray Ewing, have grown the business by nearly 500% since their launch in 2010.

Alistair Ewing said “these successes are fantastic endorsements of what our team can achieve in a market that still has very challenging trading conditions.”

“The high street banks are definitely open for business, but more often now we are having to direct SME clients to some of the new challenger banks who offer a much greater degree of flexibility.”
