Fintech UK (FintechUK.com) is established by Peter Oakes. Peter is a former central banker and regulator. He has worked in senior roles at the UK Financial Services Authority (now called the FCA), the Central Bank of Ireland, the Australian Securities & Investments Commission and the Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority (Saudi Central Bank).
If you wish to establish a regulated fintech operation in Europe, following Brexit, you must have a regulated home in both the UK and an EU Member State. Peter helps companies obtain authorisation in Ireland, Malta, Lithuania, The Netherlands, Cyprus and Croatia through networks he has established in those jurisdictions. |

Peter Oakes, Founder of Fintech UK, was recognised as a Band 1 Consultants for both 2021 and 2020 in the inaugural edition of Chambers & Partners’ Professional Advisers guide for FinTech. After 2021 Chambers stopped including non-law firms into its rankings. Accordingly, Peter's business was no longer ranked by Chambers & Partners. While that is rather anti-competitive and favours law firms over other types of advisers, those who have worked with Peter know of his high-quality work. Indeed he sought after to be a non-executive director of regulated fintechs operating in the emoney, MiFID and banking sectors).
Why Fintech UK?: Given Peter's experience of advising on the authorisation of UK Fintechs and the desire to create a site to showcase UK Fintech, we established Fintech UK. Given Peter's involvement with, and knowledge of, the Irish Fintech scene we are very happy to help these fintech set up & scale in the UK - like a landing pad for our friends through Fintech Ireland & of course for Fintech UK firms heading to Ireland or another EU Member State .
