Professor Karen Elliot, one of the Co-Is for UKFin+ attended the launch of the Centre for Finance, Innovation and Technology (CFIT) on the 27th of February.
“CFIT was set up following the Kalifa Review of Fintech (2021) to position the United Kingdom as a global leader in financial innovation. CFIT’s purpose is to unblock barriers to growth for financial technology by bringing together the best minds from across the UK in order to drive better outcomes for consumers and SMEs.”
Charlotte Crosswell OBE (Chair) and Ezechi Britton MBE (CEO-elect) set out the vision, mission, and strategy for CFIT.
These goals are well aligned with those of UKFin+ and we were pleased to be invited to celebrate their launch. We look forward to seeing many familiar faces at our own launch this summer!
