About Amigo Loans
Amigo Holdings PLC ("Amigo" or the "Company") is listed on the
main market of the London Stock Exchange (ticker: AMGO). Amigo is a
leading provider of guarantor loans in the UK and offers access to
mid-cost credit to those who are unable to borrow from traditional

guarantor, undertaking to make loan payments if the borrower does
not.

largest provider of guarantor loans in the UK. In the process,
Amigo's guarantor loan product has allowed borrowers to rebuild
their credit scores and improve their ability to access credit from
mainstream financial service providers in the future.
Amigo is a mid-cost credit provider with one simple and
transparent product - a guarantor loan at an APR of 49.9%, with no
fees, early redemption penalties or any other charges.
