This panel addition will provide F4B Network members with access to Metro Bank’s range of residential and buy-to-let mortgages.

Steve Swyny, commercial director at F4B Network, said: “Metro Bank has been one of the most active lenders over the past 12 to 18 months in terms of broadening its intermediary proposition and diversifying its product range.

“As a relatively new network offering, it’s vital for us to offer our members access to the type of lenders and service values which can add real value to their clients and their business.

“Metro Bank has made significant advances from a technology perspective and the strength of its support network will prove crucial for our advisers in H2 2021 and beyond.”

Jeremy Cook, head of corporate relationships at Metro Bank, added: “We’re delighted to be working more closely with F4B as we join their lender panel, offering more brokers and their customers access to Metro Bank’s growing range of mortgage products.”
