UK financial services experience
Meet Royston A. Cumberbatch.
Founder | Finance Expert and Business Strategist | FCCA, MBA
I bring more than 20 years of UK financial services experience, alongside Caribbean leadership experience in development finance and investment promotion. My career has included roles with organisations such as Aviva, HSBC, Lloyds, State Street and Société Générale.
That background shapes how I approach business challenges: understand the facts, assess the risks, test the assumptions and build a plan that can be put into practice.
I am a Fellow of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants and hold an MBA from Oxford Brookes University. I also hold the Accredited Director designation through the Directors’ Education and Accreditation Program and have completed Harvard Business School Online’s Strategy Execution course.
Through Fintell, I apply this experience to the decisions that matter to business owners: how to improve profitability, manage cash, prepare for finance and grow with greater control.
Finance should help you make decisions.
Financial information becomes valuable when you can use it. My approach is to explain what your numbers mean, connect them to your goals and help you identify the actions that deserve attention.
A personal note from Royston
Building a business asks a great deal of an owner. You are often responsible for customers, staff, operations and the next opportunity, while also trying to keep control of the finances.
My purpose with Fintell is to make the financial side more understandable and manageable. I want you to ask questions freely, challenge assumptions and make choices that support both your business ambitions and the life you want to build.
