Leveraging technology to support the rise of private capital with Ian Lynch, CCO, Intertrust - Ireland

 

Ian Lynch, Chief Commercial Officer at Intertrust Group,  spoke to Rudolf Falat, founder of the Voice of FinTech podcast, about using technology (in-house or through partnering with start-ups) to serve private capital (PE and VC) and corporate, capital markets or wealth managers. 

Here is what they covered:

  • Ian – what’s your background? How did you get to what you do today?

  • What does Intertrust provide?  Corporate Client Services, Private Capital & Hedge Fund Services, Capital Markets and Private Wealth

  • Your services include many smaller tasks, so I guess leveraging technology is the only way to do it at scale. What’s the technology behind your solution?

  • What’s your view on open innovation, or do you prefer to develop what you can in-house and the rest from well-established technology vendors? Can FinTechs help you?

  • Overall, how do you distinguish yourself from your competitors?

  • You work a lot with Private Capital players – I bet you have seen a steady increase in private capital vs. public over the years. Do you think this trend will also continue in the world of rising interest rates?

  • Your clients are based all over the world - how do you deal with tax and other regulations?

  • How do you make money?

  • How big is your team, and where are you based?

  • What’s your favorite business book? Legacy - All Blacks, Michael O'Leary: A Life in Full FlightJim Collins's Good to Great. Related check out the micro-course inspired by Jim Collins's Built to Last on Emeritus Insights, presented by Rudolf Falat
