Mortgage Advice Bureau reports record lending volumes

Mortgage Advice Bureau (MAB) has announced that the value of arranged mortgages reached £32bn in 2025.

This represents a 23% increase on the previous year, marking a record level of lending for the intermediary business.

Against this backdrop, MAB said its performance demonstrated the growing influence of its 190 adviser firms delivering mortgage advice at scale across the UK market.

Alongside the rise in completed mortgage lending, MAB also recorded 10% growth in adviser numbers during 2025, while it also saw revenue per mainstream adviser increase by 13% year-on-year.

MAB CEO, Peter Brodnicki, said: “Our model is built around empowering high-quality firms to grow their businesses, and this latest milestone is a powerful demonstration of what that partnership can achieve.

“As the market evolves at pace, business leaders increasingly want the backing of a business partner that that has a clear view of the future, a strategy built around customer acquisition and retention, and the leverage of technology, data, and AI to optimise performance and margins.

“We’re supporting our growth-focused partner firms in recruiting more advisers to achieve their 2026 objectives, whilst continuing to attract some really exceptional business leaders.”
