Y3S Group was positioned at number 14 in the annual Western Mail Fast Growth 50 awards at a gala dinner in Cardiff last week.

The secured loans and bridging finance packager is based in South Wales.

This is the fifth time that Y3S has appeared in the FG50 listings in 12 years and the second consecutive appearance in as many years, and the highest position at which the company has ever listed.

Barney Drake, operations director at Y3S Group, said: “We are very happy to have appeared in such a high spot on the list. This is testament to the hard work that all of our staff have put into the business over the last few years, and making Y3S the most talked about brokerage in the region.”

“Our growth plans are aggressive and relentless and our immediate intention is to double output over the coming year.”
