Today's email update: In 2016 Downing hired the Funding Empire team to set up a new Downing Crowd platform. In 2017 Downing makes an offer for FE. In 2018 FCA approves the takeover. Feb 2019 Downing acquires Funding Empire business and loan book. "Moving forward, any new lending opportunities will be arranged under the Downing brand" "Co- founders, Parag, Dinesh and Jonathan, are thoroughly enjoying working with a growing Downing team and look forward to presenting new lending opportunities to you all from our new home." Downing is offering a special promotion for existing Funding Empire lenders – i.e. an extra 0.5% p.a. interest on their first investment on the Downing Crowd platform.
