Aldermore – a refreshing approach to banking
As one of the first new entrants into the market since the credit crunch, we offer straight-forward, dynamic banking that's a breath of fresh air.
We're unencumbered by debts or historic loan books, and we don't depend on the wholesale, securitisation or international capital markets for our money. Instead, we use the traditional banking model: raising deposits from consumers, and lending to homeowners and small and medium sized businesses across the UK. It's that simple.
- Personal service from our highly experienced staff, all based in the UK
- Simple and straightforward products - no hidden bonuses or introductory offers
- Tailored funding solutions to help you achieve your goals
Supporting customers
We put personal service at the heart of everything we do. That means using underwriters instead of automated credit checks, writing to our customers personally if anything changes with their account, and being on-hand to help whenever our customers need us.
Supporting UK business
As a UK-based bank, we're committed to supporting small to medium sized British business. We take the time to understand each business and create a funding package that's a perfect fit.
We appreciate the importance of small to medium sized businesses to the UK economy, and the huge challenges recent years have presented. It can be difficult to manage cash flow and find accessible capital in order to grow.
We can deliver a range of financial solutions to help you manage your business from providing working capital, funding growth, purchasing new equipment and machinery or finding the right mortgage.
Intermediaries
We enjoy great working relationships with a range of intermediary partners - whether in delivering finance for small to medium sized businesses, or residential mortgages to creditworthy customers.
Financial strength
As a British bank, we are regulated by the Financial Services Authority and are registered under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme. This means our customers' savings are protected up to the statutory limit of £85,000 per person. We are also a member of the Council of Mortgage Lenders.
Backed by funds advised by AnaCap Financial Partners LLP, a specialist private equity investment advisor based in London, and Morgan Stanley Alternative Investment Partners, Aldermore operates from nine offices across the UK, headquartered in Peterborough, with 400 employees.
In July 2011 we celebrated breaking-even and achieving £1bn on the balance sheet, a testament to our continued commitment to offering great products and great service.
