The acquisition of a 75 percent share of LDF’s capital will give
Investec access to the valuable Professions Finance market, while
allowing LDF to continue growing as a broker in its own right.

LDF will retain its funding panel and management, led by Paul
Buchanan, while several Investec staff will join the business.
