In the competitive and complex world of finance, finding an edge is tough; maintaining it, is harder still. A change to government policy, new regulation or a heavyweight new market entrant can throw you off course at any time. A relentless focus on your mission, and the agility to pivot when needed, are crucial to long-term success.
Building an effective strategy depends on powerful insight. Since 2005, Altus Consulting has specialised in helping Financial Services firms assess market opportunities, buy businesses, shape propositions, and determine their most effective business and technology strategy. Our strategic advice is different: we are the industry’s realists and pragmatists. We are dedicated only to Financial Services and have a deep understanding of its operational and technology opportunities and constraints. Our advice is based on what can be achieved and we even say how. Our toolkit now includes methods for defining corporate, business and functional strategies, led by expert practitioners in distribution, regulation, operations, data and technology.
Of course, strategy is nothing without execution and Altus has a proven track record in operating model design and programme delivery. Find your business edge with Altus Consulting.
Determining the right business strategy can be exceptionally difficult, and that’s before you try to get business-wide agreement on it. We often see ‘islands’ of strategy in client businesses for this very reason, and it is why we have boiled down nearly two decades of experience into a set of repeatable steps with supporting frameworks to help capture, validate and articulate business strategy. Our team of strategic, operational, regulatory, technical and delivery consultants have all come from the industry, and it is because we combine all of these disciplines that our business strategy sticks. Our reputation for level thinking, practical advice and visual outputs has made us a leader in Financial Services strategic consulting.
Rapid decisions, clarity and impartiality are essential in your business. Altus brings a uniquely visual and engineered approach to cut through the noise and shape your technology strategy: providing answers, advice and confidence at the speed you need.
We work with your team to understand your technology and help you get the most out of it. We work from the platform and data foundations through to shaping outstanding digital experiences that make interaction with your clients swift and engaging. All of this needs to sit within a clear technology strategy.
