The awards, sponsored by Together Finance, have once again broken their own record for entries, reflecting the continued strength and ambition in the UK mortgage and protection market. Entries were judged by an expert panel of seasoned industry professionals from a range of businesses across mortgages, specialist lending, protection and more, who dedicated their time to creating a shortlist of finalists who reflect the very best of the industry as a whole.
Next week, the awards will open for the next stage, where voting will open to brokers, giving the entire intermediary community the opportunity to have their say and help decide who takes home the industry’s top honours. This is designed to gives the brokers a voice and ensure the awards continue to recognise the individuals, firms and providers making the biggest impact in the day-to-day process of mortgage, specialist lending and protection advice.
The 2026 Financial Reporter Awards will take place in Manchester this summer, returning to Diecast with hundreds of finalists coming together with the industry to celebrate and reveal this year’s winners.

Financial Reporter editor Rozi Jones commented:
“The Financial Reporter Awards continue to go from strength to strength, and this year we’ve once again seen record-breaking levels of interest and participation. That is a clear reflection of the passion, talent and resilience across the UK mortgage intermediary market despite a year with challenges for the intermediary market. We’re looking forward to opening up the broker vote and letting the advice community have the final say on who they believe are delivering real value. We also look forward to welcoming the industry to Manchester this summer for what promises to be another brilliant afternoon celebrating the finalists and winners!”
