London, 13th May 2026 – Fully licensed digital bank Kroo has completed a loan portfolio acquisition and entered into a forward flow funding arrangement with specialist bridging lender Glenhawk to support future lending across the UK property market.Having built a series of successful consumer banking products, this transaction with Glenhawk is part of Kroo’s broader strategy to partner with established specialist lenders operating in other areas of the market that are routinely underserved, such as property.Property investors and developers often require tailored financing solutions that sit outside the standard criteria of high street banks, and specialist lenders like Glenhawk exist to fill that gap. Partnerships like these will enable more investors to access sustainable finance across targeted areas of the market.Under the agreement, Kroo will acquire an existing portfolio of Glenhawk loans while also funding a portion of future bridge loan originations through an ongoing forward flow structure - creating a long-term funding partnership between the two businesses.Veronika Lovett, Chief Executive Officer at Kroo Bank, said: “This partnership reflects Kroo Bank’s strategy to diversify areas of the market that are often underserved and lack access to the funding they need. Glenhawk has an excellent track record in specialist property finance, and we’re proud to support their next phase of growth with stable, long-term funding.As we continue to grow, partnerships like this allow us to deploy capital into established sectors where experienced lenders are already delivering strong outcomes for borrowers across the UK.”Andrew Townsend, Chief Executive Officer at Glenhawk, said: “We are delighted to have entered into a long-term partnership with such an innovative bank as Kroo. The partnership complements our other institutional warehouse and forward flow partnerships which together provide a strong funding base that enables us to meet the continued strong demand for our market-leading bridging products.”The transaction marks another step in Kroo Bank’s broader strategy to diversify its lending activities alongside continued growth in its retail banking products.
