Who we are and what we do
We firmly believe we are defined by the company we keep.
Some history of our working with the best.
- In the 90's our first business was ''World Wide Business Introductions'' and involved linking global companies together for 'FREE', in that period the UK Dunn and Bradstreet listings were available on CD which you purchased monthly to keep up with businesses in the UK, at that time there were four million five hundred thousand companies on the register. Strangely even today there is almost the same amount 24 years later, our purchasing of German databases allowed us to start dealing with over 80 countries.
- Our partners overseas are lawyers or accountants in 60 countries today, and our UK director Sohail Hashmi possesses an extraordinary depth of financial and commercial expertise, learned from directors of global brands accumulated over 35 years, Even today his family members are professionals in Law, Pharmacy, Healthcare, Cosmetic Surgeons, Accountancy, Marketing, Banking and Oil industries. The youngest being at Deloitte in London, a Cosmetic surgeon on Harley Street and the oldest with 35 years at Saudi Aramco, the most profitable company in the world. Sohail has a personal passion in the preservation of Historic buildings and Stately homes.
- 25 Years ago Sohail Hashmi was working with global brands, with over 100 banks and financial institutions. These partnerships included significant collaborations with notable organizations such as the Bank of England, where our team worked alongside the Treasury Manager, US Bank, Nordea Bank, Rabo Bank, Bank of Scotland, Maybank, Standard Chartered, UBS, Federal Reserve Bank, Al Rajhi Bank, Marita Bank, Christiana Bank, Norde Banken, Merrill Lynch, Solomon Brothers, Bear Stearns, Rothschild, Coutts, Mauritius Commercial Bank, Bank of Cyprus, Nesbit Burns, Sogevalor, St Gallische Kantonal Bank, Credit Suisse, Bank Misr, Montreal Bank, AIG, Bank Leumi, Bulgarian Post Bank, BNI, and many others and owned a majority share of a banking group in Cyprus.
- In addition to the financial sector, our team has provided vital services to various government and corporate entities, including Police Forces, Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC), the National Health Service (NHS), the National Trust, the Ministry of Defence, The Law Society, and members of the Royal Family in the UK and overseas. We provided financial software training for Rolls Royce, Mercedes, VAG, Porsche, Toyota, Nissan, Ford, Vauxhall, Jaguar, Fiat, Peugeot and others. Gruppo Sefigen, Trevi, GSK. Roche. Giben, Thyssen and many other global companies, we also provided IT services for every newspaper group in the UK.
- We acted as data recovery specialist for HMRC Fraud Unit in the 1980s. (No ! pressing delete did not remove it )
- We also notified HMRC they were receiving an £8.00 extra VAT element where it did not apply across an entire multi billion pound industry, which was finally adjusted by reviewing the new documentation we introduced to the industry in 1987. (VAT was being charged on a government tax that was exempt), and nobody had noticed for many years or had they ?
- When asked by the City of London Corporation Ltd for accounting and billing software we needed to provide 14 character fields ? £100 Trillion in 1987. If you do not understand the heart of London's financial markets we do, and we have an in-depth knowledge of offshore banking services and territories where your business is not compromised by government overreach, over 40% of global finance transactions are made in the UK offshore territories, and managed in London's square mile, we have access to them all.
- As pioneers in digital banking and technology solutions, we take pride in our role in the digital transformation of banking and telecommunications systems, in 1998 our team worked with the UK's largest technology company British Telcom to develop state-of-the-art digital banking systems, we also led the introduction of digital telephone access banking systems with Abbey National Building Society as our pilot client, this service was designed for the UK Trade union members to access vital emergency and financial services they could not access because of outdated telephone systems and lawyers not able to respond quickly to client needs.
- Our expertise extends to the global stock exchanges where we have actively engaged and provided services to major stock exchanges around the world, and participated in trading all manner of securities, shares and bonds many years ago.

Today if you are working for a legacy based bank, you need to understand they are falling behind and need huge capital to upgrade their services, the estimated figures to integrate innovative technology are on our software website and show that billions will be needed for many of them to become fit for purpose.
40% to 50% of jobs in the existing banking industry will be lost within 18 months due to modern technology and over 38,000 banks will not talk to customers within 2 years. This research data was provided by one of the biggest card issuers in the world.
The future has arrived, digital banking is everyone's future, SWIFT will be digital within 2 years and all payments will be made by digital tokens specific to your business.
