Trio replaces outgoing board members
The Bridging & Development Lenders Association (BDLA) has appointed three new members to its executive board, following an election among its members.
Sundeep Patel (pictured left) of United Trust Bank, Roz Cawood (pictured centre) from StreamBank, and Scott Marshall (pictured right) of Roma Finance have been elected to the board and will assume their duties immediately.
The trio replaces outgoing members Jamie Pritchard of Glenhawk, Mark Stokes of United Trust Bank, and Sabinder Robinson-Sandhu from Brickflow, who are stepping down at the end of their rotation.
“We recently held an election to appoint three lender members to the executive board to fill the vacancies of those retiring directors reaching the end of their term,” said Vic Jannels, chief executive of the The Bridging & Development Lenders Association – formerly the Association of Short Term Lenders or ASTL.
“The number of candidates and votes were at an extremely high level, demonstrating the support we continue to enjoy in keeping our association meaningful and impactful in the bridging and development lending sector.
“These are exciting times at the BDLA. Our lender members are reporting record lending levels, and we continue to grow our membership among both lenders and associated professional firms. We are making great strides in continuing to grow awareness and understanding of our market, and initiatives like the Certified Practitioner in Specialist Property Finance (CPSP) programme are helping to deliver enhanced levels of expertise and professionalism.
“I am confident that our new executive board members will make a significant contribution to further advancing our association, and our sector.”
