Dominic Whitecross

Background

Fourteen years in commercial and consumer finance, ten of them spent as an FCA regulated broker arranging lending for clients across the risk spectrum. That decade under regulation shaped how HyLend operates: disclosure before the sale, figures shown before contact details are collected, and commission arrangements confirmed in writing rather than mentioned at the end.

HyLend was founded to make commercial finance behave like a modern product rather than a series of phone calls. That means clients can price a deal on the website in thirty seconds without giving up an email address, introducers can watch every deal progress live rather than chasing for updates, and nobody has to work out afterwards what the finance actually cost.

What I work on

Deal structuring. Bridging, development, mezzanine and commercial term facilities from £100,000 to £100 million, across every sector and property type, throughout the UK and Europe. The work that matters is usually the exit, not the rate.

Whole of market arrangement. Testing each case against the market rather than a fixed panel, which is where the difference between an acceptable quote and a good one usually sits.

Writing. The guides and research on this site. Most published material in this sector is written to generate enquiries rather than to be useful, which sets a low bar and leaves an obvious gap.

How to reach me

For deal enquiries, the calculator is the fastest route: model your figures, submit, and a broker picks it up personally. For anything else, including press enquiries and data requests relating to our published research, use the contact page or connect on LinkedIn.
