TRM mortgage lending jumps 25% in Q1

The Right Mortgage & Protection Network (TRM) has reported "strong quarterly year-on-year growth" in Q1, as its mortgage lending increased by 25%.

The firm reported that its protection and general insurance business also rose by 12% and 17% respectively in the same period.

Overall, TRM’s total lending income across the network increased by 21% year-on-year, which it stated reflected both higher activity levels and continued adviser engagement with a broad range of products.

The network currently supports 882 advisers across its UK-wide membership.

TRM stated that its results build on the “strong performance” reported for 2025, where it witnessed growth across all major product areas, supported by ongoing investment in adviser support, training and proposition development.

Chief executive officer and founding director at TRM, Martin Wilson stated that Q1 has stated in a “positive way” for the network.

He concluded: What’s particularly encouraging is this is not being driven by one single product line, but by advisers continuing to have wider conversations with clients and placing business across multiple areas. The increase in lending income shows that activity levels have been strong, although we are aware a certain amount of business was brought forward to March in order that advisers could access products and rates before they were withdrawn.

“However, at the same time our ongoing protection and general insurance growth underlines the continued focus on more rounded advice. We are also seeing private medical insurance maintain the pace set last year, which reflects growing client demand in that space.

“As a network, our focus remains on giving advisers the support, tools and access they need to write business across a range of areas, while making sure they can do so in a compliant and efficient way. These results suggest that approach is continuing to deliver.”
