After the voting period ended on 3rd June, the leading companies and individuals in bridging, commercial, development and specialist banking have been shortlisted by our external judges and are now in the running to win the industry’s most prestigious awards.
For this year’s ceremony, B&C has combined the previous two Best Development Lender awards into an all-encompassing one, for which Avamore Capital, Lendhub, Paragon Bank, Sancus, Shawbrook Bank and United Trust Bank have been shortlisted.
It has also added two new categories — Specialist BTL Lender of the Year and the 2022 ESG Award — following increased popularity for these two areas.
All shortlisted nominees will be contacted directly regarding next steps to support their nomination.
The names of the winners – following the official judging – will be kept a closely guarded secret until this year’s event at The Hurlingham Club on 15th September.
