The Cornerstone Network has announced it has reached a significant milestone, now supporting 105 appointed representatives (ARs) across the UK.
The network forms part of the Cardiff-based Cornerstone Finance Group, recently recognised among the 50 fastest-growing businesses in Wales by the UK Fast Growth Index 2025.
ARs within the network have praised the strength of Cornerstone’s technology, systems, and hands-on support.
Many cited its comprehensive CRM and compliance infrastructure, alongside ongoing training, as key advantages of joining the group.
Mike Powell of Mike Powell Mortgages said that since becoming part of the network, his firm had doubled in size, crediting Cornerstone’s technology (particularly its advanced CRM and compliance tools) for enabling such growth.
Conor Mullane of CJM Finance highlighted the seamless transition process when joining as an AR, noting that it was “key to not losing clients during that transition period”.
He added: “That sort of simplicity and common-sense approach also applies to the compliance aspect, which is very straightforward and saves a lot of time.
“I’m able to focus on what I love, which is writing business. For any new businesses or anyone looking to change networks I would 100% recommend Cornerstone.”
Haydn Thomas, CEO of Cornerstone Finance Group, said: “We started 2025 with ambitious goals around growing our number of ARs as well as to make a name for ourselves as the most trusted network in the mortgage and protection advisory market.
“To have achieved the milestone of 100+ ARs, as well as being named among the fastest-growing businesses in Wales, means that we have more than met what we set out to achieve.
“It’s been a hugely successful year, and as we look to 2026 we are looking forward to continuing to welcome more ARs on board.
“We’re also looking ahead to the next edition of our Cornerstone Expo, where we’ll be bringing together dozens of lenders alongside industry professionals, leaders, and innovators.”
