Our story

Practitioners, not consultants.

Founded by highly skilled practitioners who have run, built and transformed regulated financial services businesses from the inside.

Steven and Ben at work

Between us: chartered accountancy; finance director roles across private banking, investment management and trust & corporate services; compliance, MLRO and regulatory reporting; architecture and software design, process mapping, low-code development and requirement translation, overseen through to successful completion.

And lead responsibility for building Capital International Bank from the ground up — compliant and profitable. The first new bank on the Isle of Man in 35 years, and still its only digital bank.

We’ve got things right, and we’ve got things wrong — which is exactly why we know what not to do.
