A former Managing Director at HSBC for seven years, including a role as Global Head of Onboarding & Client Management Services, and more recently with Fenergo in a number of senior roles, including Global Head of Sales and Advisory Board member, Greg also holds the role of Partner at the boutique advisory and solutions firm JJCFinTech.
