rebuildingsociety.com’s Julian Wells took part in a live podcast this week where he set out rebuildingsociety.com’s vision: an attitude that favours productivity over speculation, or more simply, for the good of society, spare capital can be better deployed through lending to businesses than saving through banks.
Hosted by Coreco’s Andrew ‘Monty’ Montlake, the debate centred on the role of crowdfunding in the commercial finance market and how far the concept can go in the mainstream. Alongside Julian were Funding Circle’s James Meekings and Laura McMullen, while Coreco’s Peter Davies, who had recently used crowdfunding to help a client secure finance, provided the real life case study.
