MaxMyLending

Capital at risk. Private lending is not a savings account and is not covered by deposit protection. You may not get back what you lend.

Private lending, kept in order

Track your loans from inception to maturity.

Build a portfolio across every deal you lend on, and manage your documents in one place. MaxMyLending keeps each participation in one book: capital, rate, how interest is paid, when it ends, what it earns you, and the paperwork behind it.

Illustrative loans and figures. Your own book replaces these when you sign in.

What it tracks

The things a co-lender actually needs to know

Built from real co-lending paperwork: facility agreements with several tranches, interest reserves, extensions and restatements. It records what the documents say, so you are not piecing it together from email threads.

Inception to maturity

Track each loan from drawdown to repayment

Drawdown date, extensions and restatements, and a countdown to maturity. See what ends this month and what has run past its date.

Portfolio

Build a portfolio across every deal

Each participation on one line, with total lent, average rate weighted by capital, annual income and yield for the whole book.

Documents

Your documents in one place

Facility agreements, extensions, certificates of title, valuations, insurance and KYC, filed against the loan they belong to, so the latest terms are always to hand.

Sole · Joint · Company

Income by how each loan is held

Lend in your own name, jointly, or through a company? Each holding gets its own capital and income totals.

Tax year

Interest earned, year by year

Interest is accrued day by day across calendar years, ready for the tax return. Future years show as projections.

Security & ranking

What stands behind each loan

Record the charge, its ranking, guarantors, valuation and covenants against each loan, with notes on every change.

Coupon calculator

What will this loan pay me?

Enter the terms from the offer. The figures use simple interest on an actual/365 basis, the convention in most private facility agreements.

Each coupon is reinvested from the day it is paid until the loan matures. Enter a deposit rate, or 0 to spend the income instead.

How it works

From paperwork to a clear book

Three steps, and you only do the first one once per loan.

  1. Step 1

    Add each participation

    Enter your capital, rate, payment frequency, drawdown date and term, and say whether it is held in your name, jointly or by a company.

  2. Step 2

    See the whole portfolio

    Totals, average rate, annual income and yield update straight away, with each loan's countdown to maturity.

  3. Step 3

    Keep it current

    When a loan is extended, restated, transferred or repaid, update it in a minute and file the new document with it. The history stays with the loan.

Asset-backed loans, offered to you directly by email

The risks

  • Borrowers can pay late or default; recovery depends on the security and can be slow and partial.
  • Your money is normally tied up until the loan repays, and loans can be extended.
  • Asset values can fall, reducing the cover the security gives you.
  • No deposit protection applies. Your capital is at risk.

A lender's obligations in Jersey

Lending "as a business" in or from Jersey is Schedule 2 business under the Proceeds of Crime (Jersey) Law 1999. It must be registered with the JFSC before any money is lent. There is no minimum loan size or number of loans.

When lending counts as a business
  • The JFSC looks for: security, guarantees or a lien; interest charged; commercial terms with an end date; loans that are frequent or part of a commercial deal; and an aim to make a profit.
  • A broker or arranger being involved, and security being taken, are "highly indicative". A single loan can be enough.
  • Individuals are no longer exempt. Loans within a family, and one-off loans between companies in the same group, are out of scope.
  • A Jersey company must register even if it lends only outside Jersey.
  • No guidance yet covers co-lending through a security agent. The security agent's own registration covers the security agent, not the co-lenders.
What a registered lender must do
  1. Register on the myJFSC portal, keep to any conditions, and report changes of directors, controllers or officers.
  2. Write a business risk assessment and policies, approved by the board, and review them every year.
  3. Appoint a Money Laundering Compliance Officer and a Money Laundering Reporting Officer, and tell the JFSC within one month.
  4. Identify and verify every borrower, its owners and guarantors before lending; record the purpose of the loan; monitor it until repaid.
  5. Carry out extra checks for politically exposed and higher-risk borrowers, including their source of wealth and funds.
  6. Rely on another firm's checks only with its written assurance. You stay responsible.
  7. Screen borrowers against sanctions lists, report breaches, and file an asset-freezing report by 31 March each year.
  8. Report suspicions to the Financial Intelligence Unit, and never tip anyone off.
  9. Keep records for at least 5 years after each loan ends.
  10. Screen and train anyone working on the lending, and tell the JFSC at once of any material failure.
  11. Pay the annual fee, answer JFSC risk data requests, and register with the Information Commissioner.
Individual or company
  • The core duties are the same for both.
  • An individual working alone is both compliance and reporting officer, and needs fewer internal policies.
  • A company's board owns the risk assessment and controls, appoints both officers at senior level, and every director and controller is vetted as fit and proper.
  • Lending personally and through a company means two separate lenders, each needing registration.
  • 2026 JFSC fees: individual £205 to apply and £555 a year; company £555 and £1,175 a year.
The local lending exemption

Since 3 September 2025 a lighter regime applies when the lender and every borrower are Jersey-resident, the lender does not advertise, and all money moves through a Jersey bank. The lender still registers, carries out due diligence and assesses each borrower's risk. It does not need officers, full policies or staff training, and pays no annual fee.

Full guide, sources and form

Guidance only, not legal advice, based on JFSC guidance and Jersey law as at 29 October 2026. Confirm your own position with the JFSC or a Jersey lawyer.
