Right Mortgage reports 23% rise in lending as adviser numbers grow

Published on

The Right Mortgage & Protection Network increased mortgage lending and completions during the second quarter of 2026 as its adviser membership continued to expand.

Mortgage lending rose by 23% compared with the same period in 2025, while completions increased by 21%.

The network attributed the performance to growth in adviser numbers, business activity and client demand despite changing market conditions.

Protection income increased by 12%, equity release completions grew by 7% and private medical insurance income was 4% higher.

Adviser numbers rose from 869 in the second quarter of 2025 to 884 at the end of the corresponding period this year.

The network said the figures maintained the momentum established last year and during the first half of 2026. It has continued to invest in adviser support, training and the development of its proposition.

It also reported positive feedback from lender partners about the quality of business submitted by member firms, with some recording above-average results against key quality measures.

A revamped website has been launched to outline the services and products available to appointed representative firms considering their choice of network partner.

Martin Wilson (pictured), chief executive and founding director at The Right Mortgage & Protection Network, said: “These results are particularly pleasing because they demonstrate sustainable growth across the network rather than success in one particular area of the business.

“We have continued to increase lending and mortgage completions, while at the same time seeing advisers support more clients with protection, equity release, private medical insurance and general insurance.

“That breadth of advice remains one of the defining strengths of our network and our AR member firms.

“Just as encouraging is the quality behind these figures. Our lender and insurer partners consistently tell us the standard of business submitted by our member firms is exceptionally high, and that reflects the professionalism, expertise and customer focus of advisers across the network.

“Growth is important, but maintaining high standards for clients and partners is equally so.

“Alongside this, we have continued to invest in the future of the network. The early success of The Right Academy, for example, demonstrates our commitment to developing the next generation of advisers, while our continued investment in training, governance and adviser support ensures firms have the confidence to deliver broad, holistic advice in an increasingly changeable market as we have all witnessed and dealt with in the first six months of the year.

“While market conditions will continue to evolve during the second half of the year, we remain focused on providing advisers with the support, choice and opportunities they need to build successful, sustainable businesses.

“These results give us confidence that we are well-placed to continue that progress.”
