Reliance Bank has announced a new partnership with Knowledge Bank to improve the way its mortgage criteria is shared with the intermediary market.

The move to partner with the criteria search specialist will help advisers provide a solution for clients looking for “a mortgage lender with a social conscience”, Reliance Bank suggested.

The lender also highlighted that it offers a wide range of competitive mortgages that include “fair and flexible” lending options for first-time buyers, home movers as well as those looking to remortgage.

“I am delighted to partner up with Knowledge Bank,” Reliance Bank head of mortgages, Gareth Byrne commented. “We see this as another way to help advisers find our residential criteria. More and more people are looking to borrow money in a socially responsible way. That’s exactly what your clients can expect with Reliance Bank.”

Knowledge Bank lender relationship manager, Matthew Corker added: “Speaking with Gareth and the team, their passion for socially responsible lending really shone through. Reliance Bank’s common-sense lending approach together with their broad range of criteria including shared ownership and first-time buyer focused products are great for brokers.

“We’re thrilled to partner with them and make their entire residential criteria available to all of our users. I genuinely think this lender will be a great addition to Knowledge Bank.”
