November has been an exciting month for us at LendingMetrics, and - ahead of the countdown to Christmas - we’re also counting down, with three new starters, two new awards and one exciting announcement. This issue of Metrics Monthly is filled with exciting news and important bul- letins. Our company news includes the announcement of three new team members and the results of the Lending Awards hosted by Credit Strategy. Despite the upcoming election and uncertainty over Brexit in the UK, we’re pleased to see that the Fintech industry is breaking investment records, which we cover in our piece on page 06 . We’re

also asking “is it too little too late?” for Australian bank Westpac following the recent allegations from Austrac. This month Credit Connect announced their inaugural Power List, including a top 20 Premier companies, who we list on page 08 , and in which you may see a familiar name. We’re also announcing an exciting partnership with Fair For You as part of the Affordable Credit Challenge , which sees Fintechs and community lenders join forces to change the face of lending, using funding from Nesta Chal- lenges, and with the potential for further funding next year. As always, if you enjoy reading this issue of Metrics Monthly, you can sub- scribe to it via our website here.

New starters

Exciting changes ahead as three new starters join the LendingMetrics team

From Fareham to Shanghai LendingMetrics’ Graphic Designer Georgia Pullen recently attended the Third China International Design Art Forum for Postgraduates hosted by the China Academy of Arts in Shang- hai. Currently studying for a Masters degree in Visual Communication, Georgia was invited to the week of events as a representative of Solent University. The week-long event included confer- ences, forums and a 48-hour Creative Camp, which saw participants create art installations in a limited amount of time as part of an exhibition. Georgia was presented with two awards at the conference: third place for her Digital Media Design conference paper and presentation, and “Outstanding Works Award” for her Creative Camp piece, which she worked on collaboratively with a designer from Salford University. Georgia said about the event: “the experience was both interesting and enlightening - it gave a valuable insight into a very different education system”.

It’s been an exciting month for LendingMetrics with three new starters just before we hit the festive period. Emily, Craig and Ana joined the team in November in a variety of roles in our UK office. Emily Stead has joined us as a Finance Assistant, adding further support to the Finance Team. With lots of experience working in busy financial roles, Emily will bring a great deal of knowledge to the team. Craig Jenkins is our new Busi- ness Analyst. Craig will be provid-

ing support to many of our inter- nal teams, along with our clients. Craig joins us with many years of experience. Finally, Ana Costa has started in a very unique role for us as Talent Acquisition Specialist. 2019 has been a busy year for LendingMet- rics and with our continued growth comes a continued need for new, fresh talent. With Ana on board, we look forward to announcing more new additions to the company very soon.
