As well as loans secured by investment property, we also provide loans for pre-let or pre-sold development schemes.
Loans can be provided to individuals, special purpose vehicles, trusts and companies.
Loans are funded on a fixed or floating interest rate basis by two large UK insurance companies, for whom we act as investment manager.
Rothschild & Co Bank International also co-lends part of each loan.
Typical loan sizes range from £5m to £35m, but with flexibility depending on the transaction.
