Landbay Milestone: Hits £100 Million in Lending

UK-based peer-to-peer lender Landbay announced this week it has hit its £100 million in lending milestone. The online lending platform achieved its half-way point in lending this past September and revealed that since then momentum has accelerated to result in near-on double of lending volumes in just six months. The lender also noted that the amount to more than £4 million in interest was earned by its investors from loans originated by its platform.

Landbay also confirmed that while lending volumes are always increasing, its focus remains on ensuring that all the lending it does is responsible and it is proud to affirm that its track-record of zero defaults or arrears is still intact. CEO of the lending platform John Goodall stated:

“We spent four years building a strong foundation for the business in an innovative and exciting financial space, but the last six months have been a real step-change. Our commitment to high standards and speed for brokers has created a loyal following for Landbay – reaching £100 million is just the beginning.”

Founded in 2013, Landbay describes itself as a fast-growing UK peer-to-peer lending platform that enables retail investors, institutions, and local governments to invest in UK’s private rented sector through the funding of residential buy-to-let mortgages.

“We believe that financial service providers should be transparent and fair. A full member of the Council of Mortgage Lenders.”

Landbay is fully authorized and regulated by the FCA, but peer-to-peer lending platforms are not covered by the FSCS. Since its founding, Landbay has launched six other Seedrs campaigns, with the previous initiative attracting more than £1.6 million, which includes an investment from tennis star, Andy Murray.
