British SME lender Lovey secures up to €298 million to support UK companies

British FinTech firm Lovey has secured up to €298 million in senior secured credit to bolster UK small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The facility, provided by alternative asset manager Pollen Street Capital, consists of €59 million in committed capital and a €238 million accordion. Lovey's CEO, Jack Smith, stated that the new facility will enable the company to provide more capital to UK SMEs and scale its own-book lending.

Lovey's facility follows several other recent European lending announcements, including €240 million in France and €120 million in Lithuania. EU-Startups reported that these financing arrangements amount to approximately €733 million in total credit capacity.
