By Bridging Loan Directory 6th December 2013

United Trust Bank has hired banking lawyer William Gould for its Bridging Division. William’s appointment will enable the Bank to further develop its service, in particular with regard to providing complex structured loans.

William joins United Trust Bank from the London office of leading international law firm Eversheds LLP where he spent a period of time seconded to the commercial banking division of a major clearing bank. William has had particular exposure to real estate finance and corporate lending as well as having gained experience of offshore structures and transactions.

In his spare time William enjoys playing and watching football, tennis and golf and, having been brought up in Norfolk, he is a long suffering Norwich City supporter.

Alan Margolis, Head of Bridging at United Trust Bank commented;

“We’re anticipating developing our short term business further next year and William’s skills should increase the Bank’s capabilities to complete even more complex structured loan proposals whilst maintaining the high service levels which brokers have come to expect.

“It’s important that as we expand our business we continue to hire experienced professionals who can add to our knowledge base and who share the Bank’s ethos for delivering service excellence. William brings additional experience and enthusiasm which will benefit the team, our broker partners and our borrowers.”
