We are specialists in private lending and credit sourcing finance from the wholesale investor market.
specialists in property backed, credit funding solutions
Portside Credit Partners originates, evaluates and structures secured, property backed, non coded lending transactions, whilst focusing on developing strong relationships with all our partners – borrowers, brokers, referrers and investors.
Portside was established in 2020 as a joint venture between Swilken Capital Partners and Intralink Wealth Management. Portside came about as a result of regulatory changes which saw major banks reduce their exposure to certain property financing and created a gap for new entrants such as Portside to provide secured funding.
Portside has a disciplined investment approach and strategy.
