Customer Profile

## About Roma Finance

Roma Finance is a specialist commercial lender that has been helping property investors, developers and intermediaries achieve their ambitions for over 15 years. With a focus on flexibility and a "Borrower First" philosophy, the business provides fast, reliable lending solutions across bridging, development and buy-to-let markets.

As Roma Finance expanded its headcount and digital complexity, it needed an IT partner able to match this growth with scalable, secure, and future-ready technology and support.

The Challenge

## Scaling for Strategic Growth

Before partnering with Apex Computing, Roma Finance’s IT was managed in-house as part of its facilities function. While workable in early years, this approach began to show clear limitations as the company expanded rapidly in both headcount and digital complexity.

“We needed a partner who could grow with us — not just fix things when they broke.”

 The business needed strong cyber security appropriate for the financial sector, support for hybrid workers and field staff, and a long-term IT strategy — not just a reactive helpdesk. The Solution

## A Partnership Built Around Roma Finance

 Roma Finance chose Apex Computing for its proactive, relationship-driven approach, clear communication and alignment with their technology roadmap.

One of the most immediate benefits of working with Apex was their approach to cyber security. There have been occasions where an issue was resolved before we were even aware of it. Emergencies are dealt with immediately, and lower-priority issues are resolved within the agreed SLA.
