Mike Mikunda (pictured), director at MBE, said: “The MBE has a proud reputation for delivering events that provide real value to our attendees. Our superb seminar line-up for MBE London covers a broad range of topics close to the hearts of intermediaries at the moment, and are sure to feature informative and illuminating discussions.
“Attendees will also have the opportunity to meet with a wide range of exhibitors on the day, covering every corner of the mortgage market, so it’s an event not to be missed.”
Martin Reynolds, CEO of SimplyBiz Mortgages and FIBA Chairman, added: “Our conversations with brokers play a crucial role in determining the subject matter for our seminars at our Specialist Property Finance Summit and it’s clear that brokers are looking ever more closely at specialist finance.
“We look forward to both hosting our sessions and also being part of some of the MBE sessions which shows how the two markets are drawing ever closer. I am confident that intermediaries will find the sessions, and the day itself, incredibly useful and am delighted to once again be working with MBE on what is one of the highlights of the year.”
