Commenting, LendingCrowd founder and CEO Stuart Lunn said: “To be named Best P2P Business Lender is testament to the significant strides we have made since our launch in 2014. LendingCrowd exists to help alleviate the funding gap facing the UK’s vital community of SMEs, and we’re delighted to have received this recognition at the Growth Finance Awards.”

I look forward to next year’s event and continuing to educate growing businesses about the wide variety of financial options that are available to them.”
