Bridgit cleans up at the Ashurst fintech awards 2023




Nick Jacobs and Aaron Bassin Bridgit last week took home the win for:

🚀 Best Innovation in Lending

🚀 Best FinTech growth Story


Huge shout out to Glen Frost and the Bridgit team, customers, partners and shareholders,


The pain ðŸ’¥

A person buying their next home needs to “bridge” the money needed between buying a new home and selling an existing home.


The pain killer - Bridgit ðŸ’Š

Bridgit allow borrowers to use the equity from their existing home to buy their next home –

with faster, fairer, and more simple property finance solutions with no double mortgages, no temporary living costs and no missed opportunities.


Technology 

With its technology , innovative credit and risk modelling , in-built algorithms and automated processes, Bridgit is able to offer a24-hour approval. 

Customer focussed

Bridgit built its own CRM and customer portal, as well as an online application which can be completed in 5 minutes: meaning a smooth experience for customers. 

Investors 


The company raised $13.2 million in equity and secured $100 million in venture debt funding in 2021 and secured an additional $50 million in funding from Silicon Valley-based fund Partners for Growth (PFG) this year. 


Another win for OIF ventures! 


What the industry is saying  

Finder home loans editor Richard Whitten enthused 


“Bridging loans are a neglected segment of the Australian credit landscape and Bridgit has created a new product and platform that serves user needs while adding elements of tech-driven convenience that feel genuinely new for this industry.”


Aaron Bassin shared with Business news Australia last year 


Since launching its services the average loan written by Bridgit has been $1 million. The size of Bridgit’s average loan is larger than an average mortgage because the debt straddles both properties in the buy and sell stage.

Bassin says after a heady year of growth, lending volumes are continuing to rise for the company.


Another OIF win!
