Compliance is the architectural foundation, not a check bolted on at the end. Consumer Duty and COBS obligations are designed in from day one.
WealthTech Pros was co-founded by Dave Howard and Rob Duncan. Between them there are more than 50 years of experience — 30 in wealth management technology and 25+ building technology for UK financial services. We are wealth veterans, and we are small on purpose.
