It started with an Idea and the belief in SME.
In 2016, Ben James was unhappy with what the financial lending market had to offer. He had been working in the financial industry all his life and saw that some important customer needs just couldn’t be met - especially when it came to small and medium sized businesses. Many of them had the potential to grow, but didn’t have access to the relevant working capital. Due to a capital-intensive business model, they were declined by banks and unsatisfied with what other lenders had to offer. This is how TP24 came to life.
