About Geoff Cooney

As a commercial finance broker, you will often be working with SME owner managers or property professionals whose needs cannot be met by a traditional route, where a bank- Was taking too long to make a decision and time wasn’t on the client’s side - Declined their application and would not support your client’s plans - Approved the application but tried to fit your client’s unique situation into a rigid lending model and the bank’s offer didn’t match their requirements That’s where I and Albatross Lending can help. With over 40 years of experience across the commercial finance landscape, I work with intermediaries to help their SME and property clients secure the funding they need especially when traditional routes fall short. Whether it’s an unusual property, complex credit history, or a funding need that doesn’t tick the usual boxes, I aim to make an Albatross deal work for you and your clients and to enable you to proceed with complete clarity and confidence. Leverage my background which spans all sides of the table: • 10 years lending within Lloyds’ commercial banking division • 10 years as a Finance and Business Development Director, raising capital as a borrower • 20+ years as a commercial finance broker, securing tailored solutions for clients across all sectors Working together, we can shape a compelling funding proposal that enables Albatross Lending to give the approval and terms that you and your clients need.
