22 years in banking and finance. Now I work for you, not the bank.

As the Director of Lendwise Group, I'm the person you will actually speak with from your first call through to settlement and beyond.

The story so far

For me, settlement is not the end of the relationship, it is the beginning.

I have spent over 22 years in banking and finance, including more than a decade of leadership across both retail and business banking. In that time, I sat on the other side of the desk, assessing applications, structuring lending for business customers, and seeing first-hand what separates an application that gets approved quickly from one that stalls.

Taking my experience to deliver more personalised service has led me to set up Lendwise Group. Rather than representing one bank's products, I now work as an authorised Credit Representative under Connective (loan aggregator), giving my clients access to a wide panel of lenders while still bringing a banker's eye to how each application is structured and presented.

Lendwise Group was built around one idea: that the relationship should not end at settlement. Manish stays available to review clients' loans as their circumstances and the lending market change, rather than moving on to the next file the day the loan is drawn down.
