Wellesley Racks up the Records

The ascendant secured lending platform Wellesley & Co. has broken down its own record en route to funding the largest loan in peer-to-peer lending history.

The previous record loan size within peer-to-peer industry was £8.3m, set by Wellesley back in April. The rapidly growing platform has now outdone itself – notching a staggering £10.8m property loan.
