GB Bank added to Knowledge Bank's platform

Knowledge Bank has added GB Bank to its criteria sourcing platform, providing intermediaries with access to its latest lending criteria.

As a result, brokers can quickly search and view GB Bank’s specialist offering, including buy-to-let and bridging finance, helping to speed up case research.

GB Bank is a UK challenger bank that provides finance solutions for complex borrowing requirements across residential, semi-commercial and commercial property investments. Lending is available to UK companies, individuals, offshore structures, and foreign nationals with a UK bank account, with each case assessed on its own merits.

The criteria is managed through Knowledge Banks KB PRO platform, ensuring intermediaries have access to the most up-to-date information.

Knowledge Bank said that as client requirements become increasingly complex, having direct access to criteria spanning over 1,000 variations gives intermediaries greater confidence that GB Bank can meet their clients’ needs.

Sales director at Knowledge Bank, Shane Chawatama, stated: "We’re delighted to welcome GB Bank to the Knowledge Bank platform. As a fast-growing specialist lender in the intermediary market, its addition brings brokers a broader range of options to better support their clients.”

"As a specialist lender assisting with large loans and complex cases, being on Knowledge Bank ensures brokers can quickly access and understand our proposition - helping them deliver the right outcomes for their clients, faster."
