UK lending and investment platform LendInvest has raised its £50m target for a bond after launching the issue in mid-July.
The bonds will be listed on the London Stock Exchange and have a fixed rate of 5.25% due 2022.
Fees and expenses related to the offer were £1m, meaning estimated net proceeds were £49m.
Christian Faes, chief executive officer of LendInvest, said: “We are very pleased to have been able to close the book early for our retail bond offer, the first in a programme of future issues over the next few years.
“The demand for the bonds by both retail investors and some of the City’s largest institutions confirms the depth and breadth of investor appetite for secured, income-generating investment options from established origination platforms like LendInvest.”
