Our model

A firm that brings expertise together and amplifies its impact.

Financial transformations call for skills too diverse for a single fixed team. We chose the opposite approach.

A core, a network

A lean core team, backed by a network of experts deployed according to the needs of each mission.

Seniors, not juniors

Consultants who have worked in Banking, Treasury or fintech and who deliver the work themselves.

A tailor-made team

No standard team: we assemble exactly the skills your project requires, no more, no less.

A single point of contact

OpenbanQ leads the team, guarantees the quality of deliverables and remains your point of contact throughout the mission.

How we build the team

Complementary expertise, a team dedicated to your ambition.

Every mission starts with a simple question: which skills and qualities does this project need to succeed?

We then bring in, from our network, the experts best suited to answer it. The team is shaped around the mission, not the other way round.
