Who are we?
Funding Circle was created with a big idea: To revolutionize the outdated banking system and secure a better deal for everyone.
Thousands of loans later, we’ve helped businesses expand, investors prosper and the economy grow.
Our mission: to build a better financial world.
We help small businesses around the world get the funding they need to thrive by connecting them with investors.
How? By fusing finance and technology, we have created the world’s leading lending platform for small business finance.
We are supporting entrepreneurs and creating thousands of jobs along the way (over 80,000 to be exact!) In fact, since we were established in 2010, we have helped over 37,000 businesses grow by lending over 3.8 billion and counting.
Funding Circle has grown too and now have offices in San Francisco, Amsterdam, Berlin and London with over 850 employees. We think big, and if you do too, then get in touch today!
