“Our aim is to reduce avoidable administration and make it easier for brokers, lenders and borrowers to exchange information, without losing the human contact that remains vital in specialist finance. We look forward to playing an active part in the association.”
Adam Tyler (pictured), CEO of the BDLA, commented: “Pitch Black Technology is a valuable addition to the BDLA’s associate membership.
