Its experience of working with borrowers will help broaden the knowledge and understanding of our membership and will help to ensure that funding reaches individuals and businesses when it is needed.

“Silk Route Legal’s experience with borrowers is sure to lead to constructive two way conversations with our lender members that will benefit both parties and ultimately those looking for short term funding.”

Nadeem Akhtar (pictured), partner of Silk Route Legal, added: “Gaining a greater understanding of lender needs is a big part of our reason for joining the ASTL.
