ORCA Finance is the name of Marc McLoughlin’s new asset finance business.
Marc successfully sold his KeyFleet leasing broker business to Greenarc in November 2022.
But in February 2024, Marc decided to relinquish his role in what was called a “gentle parting of the ways”.
He has now reappeared, still in broking, but in the asset finance business with Relationship Manager Robert Cassidy, previously the Head of Business Development at Greenarc (main picture, right).
According to Marc, the purpose of Orca Finance is “To ensure that all businesses large and small get access to the finance they need to maximise their opportunities for growth and success.”
Another former leasing broker to emerge into the asset finance sector is Andy Alderson, who sold his Vanarama business to Auto Trader for £200m.
Alderway Partnership Capital is “bridging the Equity Gap for businesses”, providing both financial and partnership support.
Alderson’s colleagues in the business (pictured left) are:
Elliot Conway (Founder & Managing Partner); Daniel Taylor (CFO & General Partner); Emily Tam (Chief Investment Officer & General Partner); Debbie Attwood (Brand & Marketing Director); Helen Gosney (Executive Assistant).
