Nationwide partners with Funding Circle in support of SMEs

The two companies have created a new partnership solutions page, a publicly available resource centre, that provides all small business owners information to sustain, protect, and grow their business.

The partnership has seen an online lender and property insurer collaborating to progress access to financial support options for small business owners, many of which have experienced increased hardship during the pandemic and are looking to protect their futures, according to the press release.

Funding Circle company officials stated that they aim to offer resources that seamlessly supplement their customers’ business needs and sets them up for success in a competitive market. The collaboration nationwide facilitates their goals to support SMEs among underserved populations that banks typically are not incentivised to reach, they added.
