In an era dominated by automated chatbots and digital lending platforms, a clear trend is reshaping financial services: technology gets borrowers through the door, but human connection wins every time. While major retail banks struggle with trust, relationship-led mortgage brokers are setting an entirely new standard.
The power of human + tech synergy
Net Promoter Score (NPS) remains the gold standard for measuring customer loyalty. While the broader financial services sector hovers around an industry average of +34, the Loan Market network achieved an extraordinary average score of +99 in FY25/26 for the second consecutive year, with 93% of businesses scoring +95 or higher. Most remarkably, 310 businesses (75%) achieved a perfect +100 NPS.
“Artificial intelligence might help a borrower find us, but our brokers build the relationship and guide them through finding the right loan,” says Angela Tracey, Chief Marketing Officer at Loan Market. “We don’t just find finance solutions that meet their best interests; we educate, improve financial literacy, and remove stress through regular, transparent communication.”
