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. 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 Bruce Springsteen (almost as much as his wife), exercise (as it allows him to eat whatever he fancies) and winning (at squash, tennis, cards, well anything really...).

Jeff’s career has spanned some 50 years with a number of diverse roles including institutional research, private client stockbroking, pension fund management and corporate treasury. Jeff has sat on a few boards, including CEO positions at Dealwise, Fyshe Horton Finney and then SVP of TD Waterhouse. Jeff is a Fellow of the Securities Institute and also sat on various industry committees.

Jeff lives with his wife near Harrogate and finds he increasingly appreciates the finer things in life (it’s his age!): golf, Aston Martins, good wine and the quiet beauty of Jersey.

Gary held a variety of IT roles before his introduction to financial services as Programme Director of Charles Schwab Europe, where he designed and implemented rolling settlement and Crest. Gary was CTO of OMX Securities between 2002 and 2009 and he is a director and founder of Safe Financials, which he founded in 2000; Safe Financials have been successfully operating the Crest simulator since then and provide testing and support services with over 60 million messages processed annually.

In his younger days, Gary was in the army. Now he races cars in his spare time, has a passion for black Labradors and is something of a whisky connoisseur.

Viki started her career in financial services over 25 years ago with ShareLink and then with Charles Schwab Europe, gaining experience throughout the organisation and specialising in Brokerage Operations and Programme Management. She joined OMX Securities in 2004 and was appointed Chief Operating Officer in 2006 where the operation had in excess of £5.5 billion assets under administration and settled over 6,000 trades daily worldwide. Following the sale to TD, she continued to be accountable for the institutional operation before joining Hubwise in 2012.

Viki spends much of her free time riding across the beautiful Cannock Chase in sunshine, wind and rain. She enjoys an eclectic taste in music and these days can sometimes be found crowd-surfing or in the mosh pit at a serious music venue in Birmingham!!
