MAB reports record £32bn of mortgages last year

Published on

Mortgage Advice Bureau said it arranged £32bn of mortgages in 2025, a record for the business and 23% higher than the previous year.

The technology-led intermediary said the figures reflected the output of its adviser network, with 190 adviser firms delivering mortgage advice across the UK.

MAB also reported 10% growth in adviser numbers over the year, pointing to continued recruitment momentum as firms looked to expand.

The business said revenue per mainstream adviser rose by 13% year on year, which it said highlighted the productivity of firms operating within its model.

Peter Brodnicki (pictured), chief executive of Mortgage Advice Bureau, said: “2025 was a landmark year for MAB. Our model is built around empowering high-quality firms to grow their businesses, and this latest milestone is a powerful demonstration of what that partnership can achieve.

“As the market evolves at pace, business leaders increasingly want the backing of a business partner that that has a clear view of the future, a strategy built around customer acquisition and retention, and the leverage of technology, data, and AI to optimise performance and margins.

“We’re supporting our growth-focused partner firms in recruiting more advisers to achieve their 2026 objectives, whilst continuing to attract some really exceptional business leaders.”

The figures suggest MAB entered 2026 with momentum in both lending volumes and adviser recruitment, as networks and intermediaries continue to compete on scale, productivity and technology.
