Company Information

Get to know BankNorth

BankNorth, the trading name for B-North Limited, was a financial firm designed to serve the UK's regional SME lending market. Founded in 2018, its mission was to revolutionise business lending by combining a modern, cloud-based technology platform with a regional 'pod' model. This approach placed experienced lenders directly in local business communities to build relationships and deliver debt finance significantly faster than traditional banks. Despite raising over £50 million in funding and being granted a restricted banking licence (AWR - Authorisation with Restriction), the company failed to raise the necessary final round of capital to meet the Prudential Regulation Authority's (PRA) requirements for a full, unrestricted banking licence. Consequently, it ceased operations and appointed administrators in October 2022.

License

A Grade License

Issued by globally renowned regulators, these licenses ensure the highest trader protection through strict compliance, fund segregation, insurance, and regular audits. Dispute resolution and adherence to AML/CTF standards further enhance security.

B Grade License

Granted by respected regional regulators, these licenses offer robust safety measures such as fund segregation, financial reporting, and compensation schemes. Though slightly less strict than Tier 1, they provide dependable regional protection.

C Grade License

Issued by regulators in emerging markets, these licenses offer basic protections such as minimum capital requirements and AML policies. Oversight is less stringent, so traders should exercise caution and verify safety measures.

D Grade License

From jurisdictions with minimal oversight, these licenses often lack key protections like fund segregation and insurance. While attractive for operational flexibility, they pose higher risks to traders.
