Mr Baldwin said "The Company is focussed on the future expansion of its secured lending division which now contributes 64 per cent of group earnings before allocation of corporate overheads."
The expansion will continue via three distribution channels; brokers, branches and online. The acquisition of Cash Train in December 2014 has also significantly complemented the digital and online channel.
Money3 is also committed to being a leader in transforming the consumer lending industry in Australia and serving customers who have been overlooked by traditional lending institutions.
Mr Baldwin said, "We want to continue to build our profile as a lender that focuses on short to medium term loans, specifically personal and vehicle finance. Money3 will continue with its plans to transition out of some unsecured loan products in the near future. The secured lending division has seen strong growth and over the coming financial year we will be introducing new product offerings to strengthen this business even more."
