If I remember correctly the CTO was ah, let go. For the life of me I can not remember who replaced him. KT You can find the "Chief Product Officer" on their "About Us" page. You can find the prior CTO via Google. There's is also a VP Engineering who might be still current. I don't see why there's a need for a CPO/CTO and a VP Engineering.

I don't see why there's a need for a CPO/CTO and a VP Engineering. At a guess, one is focussed on strategic direction, one on the detail of implementation. I'd also guess that there's a certain amount of job-title-inflation going on there.

Try the global leadership team (scroll down). It's amazing what you can do on 1%. www.fundingcircle.com/uk/about-us/

Don't you mean 1% plus the other £800k of cash they are burning every week at the moment. FC is one seriously cash hungry corporate machine right now. Which reminds me I must log in to withdraw my latest lump of repayments

Yes, I have often wondered if FC applied to itself for a loan what banding the computer would give it?

Care to provide the full text of it (by PM, perhaps), for the benefit of those of us who refuse to support the Murdoch press? I'm guessing it's the usual hatchet job. Oh, and fwiw, according to the loan comments, the final tranche of Newquay is now up to at least £210k of £250k repaid...

Not too bad. The first requirement is to have your business discussed in the financial press, the second is to have the balance positive. Particularly pleased to see Lord Turner's pontification to be shown up again as ill-informed and ill-judged. A good article for p2p, and not damaging to FC as it is presented as here to stay, with some issues to address of course. If there were losses on property rather than unacceptable and uncontrollable delays, that would be far worse.

Did you try the link, it worked for me and didn't seem to be behind the paywall.

I did - you get most of the first two paras, then it fades out in mid-sentence with a demand to register for two articles a week, or subscribe for full access.

I am not a subscriber but it came up OK the first time. I guess one is only given a limited views before you need to pay. I have lost the full text now. It seems a fair article actually - about the right level of criticism with some perspective. The Newquay client is named.

I get the paper version and have seen it. It doesn't really say anything new for anyone already reading this forum - suspect it could just as easily been written by a news-bot based on postings on this forum. Given the increasing negativity and distrust of platforms now commonplace on this forum, it could have been far worse - FC is probably 'lucky' that it chooses not to post on this forum - platforms that do interact with their members seem to attract far more specific and relentless vitriol that isn't worth posting on FC's board here as there's no satisfaction in knowing it is read by FC.
