“We’re here to improve the financial services industry’s operating efficiencies, lower costs for market participants and improve outcomes for consumers” Anthony Rafferty, Managing Director

Our team of experts have extensive knowledge and experience in the financial services sector and are passionate about delivering solutions that make a difference.

Origo are active participants in and hosts of various industry conferences, workshops, seminars and regulatory consultations. This means we are not only acutely aware of the challenges the sector faces but actively bring the industry together to design solutions that work for everybody.

During our 29 years, we have seen the financial services sector change significantly, from A-Day, RDR to Pensions Freedoms and from desktops to mobile apps.  The internet and digital solutions are no longer considered to be ‘nice to have’ services but are seen as essential tools to enable collaboration and greater and more simple access to information and services.

Our in-depth understanding of the UK financial services ecosystem – its complex products, services, regulations and technologies – enables us to work closely with all parties to help create the technology solutions that delivers.

The common thread is that the adoption of technology has been at the core of all financial services companies, be that;

  • Product manufacturers
  • Platforms,
  • Financial advisers,
  • Adviser back-office software services and suppliers,
  • Financial tools and calculators,
  • Asset Managers,
  • Employers,
  • Third-party administrators.

We work with all of these parties to deliver fintech solutions which keep them at the cutting edge of technology delivery.

Having one eye on the future developments within the UK, working with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and another on emerging insurance technologies from across the globe, we are uniquely placed to ensure that fintech UK is and continues to be, at the leading edge.

It is through industry collaboration and the backing of our shareholders and partners that our services are developed and maintained, enabling financial services organisations to meet the challenges faced today and in the future.

As we are owned by UK financial services groups. They help us towards ensuring that we provide the essential technology and services that the industry needs.

Since 1989, our industry has seen significant changes, from new rules and regulations such as ‘Pension Freedoms’ to new game changing technologies such as tablets. We have consistently delivered standards and services that meet requirements through strong industry collaboration.
