Chief Executive Officer

Feb 2012 – Jan 2024 · 11 yrs 11 mos · London

Aviation and Tech Capital Ltd developed Ablrate.com and launched on July 9th 2014.
Ablrate was a peer lending platform specifically designed for asset backed transactions. The platform completed £68 million in loans with £57 million trade on the Loan Exchange and £13.5 million+ in interest paid to lenders.
We wound down Ablrate because of regulatory head winds in the UK, specifically with online lending, as well as a challenged loan book after Covid
