Business Moneyfacts award winners announced

The world of business finance gathered together last night to celebrate the 2015 Business Moneyfacts Awards, held at the prestigious Lancaster London hotel.

Over 500 industry professionals from leading financial institutions and trade bodies gathered at the ceremony, hosted by comedian Ed Byrne, where a total of 31 awards were presented to deserving winners.

The awards went to those companies and brokers who have consistently offered the most competitive products, the best levels of service and shown the greatest innovation in the business and commercial finance world during the last 12 months, resulting in awards that truly showcase the best of the business finance arena.

Big winners on the night included Lloyds Bank, Aldermore and Santander (who won four awards, including the prestigious Business Bank of the Year award), while several specialist lenders also garnered attention.

"The 15th annual Business Moneyfacts Awards ceremony has recognised those providers, brokers and trade bodies who have helped to make the previous 12 months more positive for businesses," said Lee Tillcock, editor of Business Moneyfacts. "While challenges remain, especially for those seeking finance, there is little doubt that both the levels of choice and the willingness to find real funding solutions improved throughout the year."
