The problem
Why this capability exists.
Expat lending is a market of exceptions. Most brokers don't know the lenders; the lenders don't advertise.
Our approach
- 01
Map your income, assets and residency to lender appetite.
- 02
Pre-clear KYC and source-of-funds before applying.
- 03
Pair with lombard or asset-backed structures where appropriate.
Outcomes you can expect
- 32 jurisdictions covered in the last 24 months
- 9 private banks on direct terms
- Lombard overlays from £2M
