OakNorth's Valentina Kristensen on Supporting SMEs During an Economic Downturn
By Anton Grant · 7 December 2022

Joining us for a cocktail at Fintech Talents, we chat with Valentina Kristensen, the Director of Growth & Communications at LendTech, OakNorth, about the cost of living crisis and how they support SMEs when big banks and incumbents can't. For Kristensen, all businesses are unique, from hospitality to transport services, and thus have specific lending needs - an economic downturn provides an opportunity to realise pain points and future growth.
