In the fortnight since the large loan and development brand launch of Quantum by Bridgebank Capital, the lender has received initial enquiries totalling a value in excess of £300 million.

It says feedback clearly shows that the “skills and expertise of the Quantum professional team and the overall product offering are in high demand”.

It is headed up by Carl Graham and Steve Bryce, who have been delighted with the general quality of enquiries received to date in terms of both the financial standing, property experience and net worth of applicants and the related viability of the funding proposals.

Laurence Goodman, group managing director at Bridgebank, said: “The launch of the Quantum brand which is underpinned by genuine vastly experienced property financiers has proven to be extremely successful. Introducers and their clients are telling us directly that it’s a breath of fresh air to be dealing with an alternative lender to the institutional banks, that clearly know what they’re doing, are commercial and have an appetite to lend.

“Prior to launch, we carried out in depth market research and listened to feedback from of our key professional introducers, which highlighted a clear gap in the market. We are delighted with what has been achieved in the first few week alone, and look forward to progressing and enhancing the Quantum brand and team further.”
