FinTrU provides regulatory resourcing services. These include legal, risk, compliance, KYC, operations and consultancy, to Investment Banks and other financial institutions.

It is planned that, over the next 5 years, 500 of the 605 jobs announced today will be delivered through a series of future Assured Skills Academies.
