How Nick is building a better working world

I’m passionate about strategy and value creation for financial institutions, and fascinated by how events in the capital markets impact our economies and societies. I’m building a better working world by helping FIs make the right decisions about how to grow and where to invest, so that they are driving positive effects across their ecosystems.
