Founder and Managing Director, ZAMS Advisory
Core banking programmes are the most complex things financial institutions do. The margin for bad advice is zero.
I've advised on core banking programmes across three continents. The failure patterns are consistent: scope drift, vendor dependency, and a board that doesn't understand what it signed up for. We help institutions go in clear-eyed — realistic about cost, honest about risk, and structured to make decisions at pace.
