Why we route here

  • Genuine cross-border capability across UK, Ireland, NL, ES and DE.
  • Will lend on commercial property, mixed-use and trading businesses.
  • Mid-ticket sweet spot well covered.
  • Direct underwriting team, broker or direct intake.

When we route elsewhere

  • Slower than pure bridging desks for clean cases.
  • Below £250k tickets not entertained.
  • Pricing requires a real conversation, not a rate sheet.

Best fit applicants

  • Mixed-use and commercial property
  • £500k to £10m tickets

Where Fiduciam is the wrong fit
