Nick Fahy, Chief Executive Officer at Cynergy Bank commented: “Lending £317m in CBILS is a huge accomplishment and we are extremely proud to announce our final CBILS figures. The pandemic has been challenging for many SME’s but I am delighted we were able to provide much needed capital injections when our customers needed them the most, while also making the experience as seamless as possible with our digital application process and relationship driven services. I am extremely proud of the team who have managed, in extremely difficult times during the pandemic, to both support SME’s and continuing to help the Bank grow.”
