Non-bank bolsters broker support and sales teams

Non-bank lender MA Money has announced that Tim Lemon has been promoted to national sales manager along with the appointments of three new business development managers (BDMs): MyAnh Nguyen, Kristina Barac, and Jamie Hall.

Lemon first joined MA Money in 2023 as the state sales manager for NSW and Queensland and will now oversee the national BDM team and continue to expand the lender’s presence in the market while strengthening broker relationships.

Lemon said: “I am proud to lead this hugely talented team as we pursue ambitious growth plans for MA Money.

“With our focus on delivering outstanding service and innovative lending solutions for brokers nationwide, I am looking forward to our team achieving even greater success together.”

Nguyen joins the MA Money Victorian-based BDM team, carrying more than seven years of experience, particularly in the non-bank space.

According to the lender, her background as a mortgage broker gives her a “unique perspective on the challenges brokers face and the tools they need to succeed”.

Barac, also joining the Victorian BDM team, has over 15 years of experience in the finance industry with her experience stretching across major banks, second-tier banks, and non-bank lending.

She has worked across residential, commercial, and SMSF lending, along with credit assessment, branch lending, mortgage broking, and as a BDM for the last seven years.

Joining the lender’s Queensland-based BDM team, Hall brings more than 25 years of experience in both commercial and residential lending and a deep knowledge of residential home loans, development finance, bridging finance, and non-bank lending.

First spring offering

These appointments come as MA Money launched a new offering aimed at providing discounts on rates, loadings, and risk fees to a diverse customer base.

The Spring Offer is a limited-time promotion for new loans submitted between 20 September 2024 and 1 November 2024 with settlements required by 31 January 2025.

Lemon said at the time: “This is MA Money’s first-ever discount offer in the market, and it was crucial for us to deliver real value across a wide array of customers.

“By offering reduced rates, loadings, and risk fees, we’re ensuring our broker partners have the tools to provide meaningful solutions to their clients.

“This Spring Offer and our recent policy updates reflect our commitment to helping brokers and customers access flexible and affordable finance options, no matter how unique their circumstances may be. MA Money has the backing and the confidence in our proven ability to deliver the high-quality and flexibility our highly valued brokers and their customers expect.”
