Meet the team behind Finura

We use our industry expertise, strong business and technology insight to enable advice excellence.

About Finura Group

We are an independent global technology services business specialising in financial advice & wealth management.

The fast-moving pace of technology development, increasing regulation and a talent shortage have put pressure on wealth management firms and their software partners.

We have a unique skill set that combines technical expertise with hands-on experience in financial services. This allows us to work with our clients to support their internal teams in making and implementing technology changes.

We combine an objective data-driven approach with the empathy required to drive sustainable change. We have an ongoing relationship with all our clients, so we are accountable for delivering on the strategy we develop.

 

Combined 150 years wealth technology experience
Backed by highly respected team
Wide range of experience across major technology platforms
Independent equity ownership
Unconflicted business model

Meet the team

Our team have worked together for many years. We came together as Finura with the goal of building a company that could focus on the long-term, building a balanced and family-friendly working environment. We have a diverse group of skills which when combined gives our clients an invaluable team to lean on when important decisions need to be made.
