    Brief

    The British Business Bank, the UK's economic development bank, is seeking a comprehensive Loan Management System (LMS) to support its expansion into direct lending operations. The system must manage the complete loan lifecycle for the Start Up Loans scheme, including disbursement, servicing, collections, and recoveries. The British Business Bank provides debt finance to help individuals start and grow early-stage businesses across the UK. The new LMS must be capable of supporting both current wholesale partnership models and future direct lending operations, with the British Business Bank's subsidiary requiring FCA approval as a direct lender. Suppliers should demonstrate experience in financial systems that can handle high transaction volumes, regulatory compliance, and integration with existing internal and external platforms. This is a strategic opportunity for vendors to support the Bank's mission to improve access to finance for UK SMEs.
