Founded in 1982, Commercial Acceptances specialises in fast short-term finance. As a principal lender, we provide bridging loans fast, and at competitive rates.

Around 70% of our business comes from repeat borrowers who appreciate a fast, professional and friendly service. They also prefer to deal with someone senior who understands their needs and the challenges they face, and who can make a decision quickly - we’ve even completed loans within 24 hours of receiving the call.

Why arrange a bridging loan with us?

  • Highly competitive bridging loan rates and loan to values (LTVs) up to 75% in Central London
  • 25 years in the marketplace
  • Fast turnaround of 5 working days - and within 24 hours in some cases
  • No minimum periods
  • No application forms for non-regulated bridging loans
  • Principal lender
  • No early repayment charges
  • You deal directly with the decision maker
  • Brokers welcome

We're also members of the Association of Short Term Lenders (ASTL) and a patron of the National Association of Commercial Financial Brokers (NACFB).

We are authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority in respect of our regulated mortgage contract activities.

A history of success

Now part of the Close Brothers Group plc, the UK’s the largest independent fully quoted merchant bank, we’ve been providing bridging finance facilities since 1982. In that time, we’ve helped hundreds of property professionals and amateurs make the most of their development, investment and trading opportunities.

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on a mortgage or any other debt secured on it.
