London-based mortgage and protection broker Bennison Brown and leading mortgage and protection network Stonebridge have extended their partnership with a new long-term deal that will see the relationship between the two businesses span well over a decade.
Founded by partners Michael Bennison and Andrew Brown in 2016, Bennison Brown is one of London’s leading broker firms, employing 10 advisers and having completed over £1.2 billion of lending in that time.
The firm said its decision to enter a renewed, long-term agreement with Stonebridge reflects a strong alignment in culture and ambition, as well as the network’s proven track record in supporting ARs to scale their business.
Stonebridge is one of the UK’s largest mortgage and protection networks and has arranged more than £15 billion of lending in the last 12 months. It currently works nationwide with more than 1,300 advisers and independent industry research has shown it has welcomed more ARs in 2025 than any other mortgage and protection network.
This latest extension with Bennison Brown also follows the recent renewal of its long-term partnership with The Mortgage Shop in September, demonstrating the network’s ability to cultivate and nurture long-lasting partnerships.
Michael Bennison, Managing Director of Bennison Brown, said: “Stonebridge has been a fantastic partner for nearly a decade and therefore our decision to renew was an easy one.
“When looking for a network back in 2016, we needed someone that was not just strong on compliance but also had the tools, experience, and support to help us grow as a business, while continuing to match our ambition. In that sense, Stonebridge remains the perfect home for us.”
Rob Clifford, Chief Executive of Stonebridge, commented: “Michael and Andrew have built a well-earned reputation for professionalism, ambition and outstanding customer care. It has been our absolute pleasure to support them on their journey.
“We’re therefore thrilled to be continuing on that journey with the team at Bennison Brown under this new long-term agreement as we continue to invest in our infrastructure, technology, and service for the benefit of all our members.”
