Mr Baines is widely credited as being a driving force behind Age Partnership’s rise to market leadership in the equity release sector and was also a founding director of award-winning equity release provider, Pure Retirement.

He said:

“I’m delighted to be joining the team at Tower Street and look forward to helping this exciting market to reach its potential.
“As was the case with the equity release sector some 15 years ago, I see in the probate-lending market an innovative product set that can significantly improve the lives of customers.
“Probate lending is already the fastest-growing UK consumer credit market, and this is despite consumer awareness still being low.”


Robert Husband, chief executive officer of Tower Street Finance, added: 

“We are thrilled to have Dan come on board at this exciting time in our development.
“We have already experienced significant growth and made good strides towards building this new and innovative sector. Dan brings a wealth of experience which will help us to continue this journey.”
