The finalists for this year’s British Specialist Lending Awards have been revealed.
The awards will take place on 22 September at the Hilton Bankside in London, with awards for brokers, lenders and business leaders.
The judging day takes place on 1 September in person, with all finalists required for interview.
This year the awards will also commemorate industry ‘changemakers’ who are helping to limit climate change, promote the green agenda, have programs or policies to encourage inclusivity and representation of diverse groups across gender, race and ethnicity, ability and disability, religion, culture, age and sexual orientation.
This is both within their own business and also within the advice process and client engagement.
