HLPartnership (HLP) has announced the addition of Tandem Bank to its panel, welcoming the digital lender as one which ‘challenges the status quo with new ideas’.

As part of HLP’s elite lender panel, Tandem Bank will be able to provide its services to HLP members.

HLP chief executive Chris Tanner says: “We are delighted to welcome Tandem Bank to our panel. It is good to see a new lender challenging the status quo with new ideas.

“We are particularly pleased to welcome their reimagined remortgage process which is designed to reduce the time taken to get funds to the customer and the ease with which our members can interact with their underwriters and regional sales managers. We are looking forward to a long and fruitful relationship.”

Tandem Bank sales and distribution director Roger Morris adds: “Education is at the very heart of HLP’s proposition to assist their brokers to be the best they can.

“That has always inspired me and is also a key reason for their popularity and success in attracting more broker firms to join them over the past few years. To have the opportunity to help be part of their educational program is really exciting for all of us at Tandem.”

Tandem, which aims to be the ‘UK’s greener digital bank’, was recently added to Twenty7tec’s Source module, where brokers can search for its green mortgage products, and has also partnered with Quilter Financial Planning, The Right Mortgage Network, LMS and L&G Mortgage Club in the past six weeks.

The lender’s green mortgage products offer a rate reduction of up to 0.3% for new customers whose homes have an energy rating of A to C.
