Online mortgage broker Trussle has landed £7.5m of funding, weeks after its founder left the business five years after opening its doors. The London-based firm said it received the cash from Dutch investment fund Rabo Frontier Venture, part of cooperative lender Rabobank, based in Utrecht. The move comes after founder and chief executive Ishaan Malhi (pictured) severed ties with the firm earlier this month. The former Bank of America Merril Lynch mortgage analyst set up the broker in 2015. The fintech said the fresh funds come at a “pivotal stage” of the firm’s development as it bids to overhaul the £1.5bn mortgage loan market.
