NoW Partners, which specialises in advising and consulting for banking, asset servicers and asset managers, is opening its London office as part of its continued European expansion strategy.
NoW Partners, established in Luxembourg over five years ago, expanded its presence in Europe in January 2025 with the opening of a Paris office, led by Philippe Anquetil, managing partner, and Samy Ghrairi, director.
In line with its growth plan, NoW Partners UK officially opens this month under the leadership of Charles Churchill, managing partner, and Jeff Simmons, senior partner.
Based in the City of London on Throgmorton Street, the NoW says the new office will strengthen its ability to support London-based and international clients, working with its Luxembourg and Paris teams to deliver integrated, expertise-led consulting services.
The firm says the primary focus for London will be on supporting institutions across front office, risk, compliance and operations — particularly international firms with a UK component.
Churchill says: “I’m delighted to be leading NoW Partners’ expansion into the City. The opportunity to combine our European strength with a London presence allows us to better serve clients on both sides of the Channel, providing the insight, agility and expertise that today’s financial institutions need.”
Eric Nolen, founding partner of NoW Partners, comments: “The launch of our London office marks an important milestone in our European growth. London remains one of the most dynamic financial centres in the world, and establishing a presence here allows us to support our clients more fully across borders.
“This new chapter is also a strong example of international cooperation and partnership between the UK and the EU — a model that lies at the heart of NoW Partners’ philosophy.”
