Making a Difference
Our BIG PURPOSE is to end global poverty and contribute to worldwide prosperity. We achieve our purpose by enabling financial inclusion and accessibility globally.

We are Driven By
Our Beliefs
Global Prosperity
1. No Poverty - Anyone or any business in any country can be prosperous given a conducive environment in which they can succeed and thrive. Access to finance is vital for posperity.
Financial Accessibility
Financial access, rather than just financial inclusion is one route (of many) that can end global poverty and drive prosperity. Financial Accessibility broadens the impact, whilst financial inclusion only targets a few.
Commercial opportunity
Financial accessibility and financial inclusion offers commercial opportunities to progressive financial services firms, because they open new market opportunities and avoid scarcity led competition.
We can make a difference
We believe that by helping Fintech newcomers and progressive incumbents develop new markets and new ventures, we can contribute to financial accessibility that drives global prosperity. We also believe that the entire ecosystem has to work for Fintech led change to take place.

Frequently Asked Questions.
We are London based (the epicenter of Fintech), however we are able to work across many parts of the world, either remotely, or flying out there for short durations. We have experience working in UK, Africa, Middle East and South East Europe thus far.
To provide you with certainty, we will usually work on a fixed fee basis. We also work on a fixed monthly retainer basis for larger implementation projects. Occasionally, we can also work on an hourly basis to give you most flexibility.
We started life as regulatory consultants, but soon realised that regulation and risk seen in isolation of business goals, don’t really make any impact, especially to financial accessibility. We now engage with risk and regulation in the context of growth.
We have a very lean central team comprising two Board members and we are supported by administrative staff as well as outsourced marketing staff.
Most importantly, we have a vast network of partner firms and associates around the world whom we partner with to serve you. The advantage to you is that we are not limited by our team size and can build you the best bespoke team that is right for you.
