Angus has almost 30 years’ experience in financial services, covering most aspects of the industry from system design and installation to establishing and running a fully regulated outsourced clearer with many different types of clients and 10s of Billions of AUA. Angus was one of the original architects and authors of JHC’s FIGARO product, developed as the key integrated system for brokers and investment managers and used by major institutions, and it was his vision to develop a business that automated funds administration and settlement that saw Hubwise established in 2011. Angus studied Applied Physics at university in Scotland, loves music, racquet sports and tackling mountains whether in the lakes or the Munro’s north of the Border.
