“Can a cloud-native, bitemporal investment data platform displace decades-old incumbents like SimCorp, Aladdin, and Charles River as the system-of-record for the buy-side?”
FINBOURNE was founded in 2016 by former Goldman Sachs senior quant Thomas McHugh to solve the fragmented investment data problem for asset managers, asset servicers, and hedge funds. Its flagship LUSID platform positions itself as a cloud-native, bitemporal system-of-record for investment data — competing with legacy vendors like SimCorp, BlackRock Aladdin, and Charles River. The company has expanded from pure enterprise data management into adjacent workflows including IBOR, OMS, PMS, fund accounting, and transfer agency, and is now leaning into agentic AI (via Anthropic's MCP protocol) as the next differentiator.
FINBOURNE Technology was founded by Thomas McHugh and is founded in 2016, headquartered in London, United Kingdom.
FINBOURNE Technology has raised ~$100M+ in total (latest round: Series B, 2024; valuation: £280M (~$356M) post-money (2024)).
