UKFin+ is an EPSRC funded £2.5M programme of funding, whose aim is to bridge the gap that currently exists between the research in universities and the needs of the financial services industry, consumers, and regulators. Based on an inclusive, diverse and responsible research culture it will harmonize technological know-how across regions.
