Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Pack Capital?
Pack Capital does not allocate proprietary capital; it arranges introductions to external lenders. Paul Mahon, the Founder and Managing Director, leads the origination and lender-matching process. He draws on more than 25 years in licensed property development and is a Fellow of the British Institute of Innkeeping. Richard Grainger, a former Barclays Investment Bank financial institutions head, acts as an advisor.
Does Pack Capital deploy its own balance sheet?
No. Pack Capital is a funding introduction company, not a principal investor. It brokers access to capital from a panel of over 25 lending institutions covering acquisition, development, commercial mortgages, and bridge finance. The firm itself does not disclose a discretionary fund, co-investment pool, or proprietary loan book.
What types of property finance does Pack Capital arrange?
The firm arranges funding for commercial and residential property, including acquisition finance, ground-up development loans, commercial mortgages, and bridge facilities. Paul Mahon's background in the licensed property industry gives Pack Capital additional fluency in pub, hotel, and leisure real estate transactions.
Which lenders does Pack Capital work with?
Its publicly listed lending partners include high-street banks (Barclays, HSBC, Lloyds, NatWest, Santander), specialist lenders (Shawbrook Bank, United Trust Bank, Hampshire Trust Bank), and alternative credit providers (Funding Circle, Lendinvest, Landbay, Avamore Capital, Assetz Capital). The panel exceeds 25 named institutions.
How does Pack Capital get compensated?
As a funding introducer, Pack Capital is typically compensated through arrangement or introduction fees paid by the borrower, the lender, or a combination of both. The firm's website does not specify a standard fee schedule, and structures likely vary by transaction complexity and lender.
