DND Finance is an Anglo-Canadian business providing finance across the business loan, vehicle, equipment finance, and leasing markets.[1] Founded in 2000 by Bill Dost in Canada as D&D Leasing, the business expanded to the United Kingdom in 2009.[2] The business rebranded to DND Finance in 2019 as it expanded its operations beyond leasing.[3][4][5]
Activities
[edit]In August 2018, the business obtained a £20m wholesale funding facility from Wesleyan Bank to enable lending to British SMEs.[2][6][7]
In 2019, DND Finance agreed a multi-year financing agreement with cosmetics platform Aqiok in order to help the firm develop a lending app.[8][9] In the same year, DND Finance also provided $1 million to Canadian funding solution provider Benjamin Verde, an artist and entertainment funding solutions provider.[1][10][11]
In 2022, DND Finance launched the Score Mastercard, which was reported to be the UK's first Shariah-certified credit card.[12][13] This followed the launch of DND's Secured Charge Card by Visa in 2019.[11][10][6]
In 2022, DND Finance Managing Director Bill Dost was appointed to the board of the Finance and Leasing Association of the United Kingdom.[14]
