When I talk to people about democratising property investment, I’m sometimes met by a look of confusion. Owning your own home is a pipe dream for many young people. Long gone are the days where you could buy a house for £800 - that is now worth £550,000. If a person can’t afford their own property, how can we expect them to believe that having fu...

For a long time, small businesses have been viewed as a tricky customer segment, one that is hard to serve.
