Charles & Dean has been named Large Asset Broker of the Year at the Finance Connect Summer Awards 2026, sponsored by Allica Bank.

 

The award recognises our performance over the past year, reflecting the expertise of our team, the strength of our lender relationships and the results we've delivered for clients across the UK.

 

Over the last 12 months, we've arranged more than £200 million in funding, helping SMEs invest in equipment, strengthen cash flow and unlock growth. As we've grown, our focus has remained the same: helping businesses access the right funding through a straightforward, transparent process.

 

Tom Perkins, Co-Founder of Charles & Dean, said:

 

"Winning Large Asset Broker of the Year is a fantastic achievement for the business and a reflection of the team behind it. We've built Charles & Dean by putting clients first, building strong relationships with lenders and consistently delivering the right funding solutions.

 

Our role is to make business finance easier to navigate. We help businesses understand their options, connect them with the right lenders and structure funding that works for their needs.

 

This award is a credit to the whole Charles & Dean team. I'd also like to thank our clients, partners and funders for the trust they've placed in us."

 

While this award marks an important milestone, our focus remains the same: helping UK businesses access the funding they need to invest, grow and move forward.
