To date, LendInvest has self-funded its growth, and in doing that we have built a good profitable business. However, we have taken this investment in our company to continue our growth and to allow us to consolidate our position as the leading peer-to-peer marketplace for mortgages; and to ensure that we make LendInvest the best company for all our users.
Above all, it will generally be business as usual for us here at LendInvest. We hope you are enjoying the platform, and will continue to enjoy the superior returns we work very hard to provide to our investors.
The announcement was also published in the Financial Times online and in today’s print (16 June 2015).
Thank you for your ongoing support.
Christian Faes and Ian Thomas
Co-Founders, LendInvest
