What’s changing?
Our operations and technology functions are transferring to Wipro – a global leader in technology.
Wipro’s market-leading technology will revolutionise the adviser and customer platform experience.
We’ve extended our 15-year technology partnership with GBST, with accelerated enhancements to our technology and proposition in 2025.
What prompted these changes?
The platform space in the UK has developed slowly over the past 20 years, driven by regulatory pressures, the need for continual improvements, and the complexities of managing costs and resources.
In the face of these challenges, we explored the best way to build and maintain our technology, manage our resources, and navigate the ever-changing regulatory landscape while harnessing best practice from other sectors to drive real innovation. We knew there had to be a better model, one that delivered better solutions for our customers.
After careful consideration, we decided that our partnership with Wipro and GBST found the right balance between technology, innovation, customer service excellence, and regulatory compliance, while allowing us to make improvements rapidly and continually in a fast-moving industry.
