BDLA announces Executive Board appointments

By Bridging Loan Directory 4th September 2024

The Bridging & Development Lenders Association (BDLA) has announced three new appointments to its Executive Board, following an election amongst its members.

Sundeep Patel from United Trust Bank, Roz Cawood from StreamBank and Scott Marshall from Roma Finance have been elected to join the BDLA’s Executive Board and will take up their responsibilities with immediate effect.

The new members replace Jamie Pritchard from Glenhawk, Mark Stokes from United Trust Bank, and Sabinder Robinson-Sandhu from Brickflow, who are retiring their positions at the end of their rotation period.

Vic Jannels, CEO of the BDLA says:

“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.

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.

I’d like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to the retiring Executive Board members, who provided outstanding support and service to the BDLA during their terms of office.

I am personally very grateful for their encouragement and guidance and respect the huge contribution they have made to the Association.

These are exciting times at the BDLA. Our lender members are reporting record lending levels and we continue to grow our membership amongst 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.”
