Ortus aims to increase exposure to large loans




Ortus Secured Finance has announced that it is looking to increase its exposure to large loans during 2018.

The short-term lender expanded its maximum loan size to £25m last year and has since completed a series of loans in this size bracket.

Ortus said the criteria required for larger loans was similar to its broader offering, although it was aimed at high-net-worth borrowers.

Interest rates start at 0.65% per month – which annualises at just 7.8% – and Ortus can offer extended loan terms of up to 36 months.


The lender will also consider a wide range of non-regulated security, including investment residential, commercial, semi-commercial/mixed use, offshore companies, BVI and trusts.

“Our loan size criteria starts at £100,000 and all deals, whatever their size, are extremely important to us,” said Jon Salisbury, managing director of Ortus (pictured above).

“However, we are keen that introducers also know about our capacity to do much larger deals.”

In September last year, Ortus refreshed its product guide following the relaunch of its website.
