# Fintel plc
Fintel is a financial services technology and software company based in Huddersfield that operates as a critical infrastructure provider for the UK retail financial services sector. The company connects and enables product providers, intermediaries and consumers through an integrated platform combining software, data analytics and expert support services.
The business serves three primary audiences: financial product providers seeking market insights, independent financial advisers and mortgage brokers requiring operational support, and consumers accessing financial guidance. Over 10,000 financial intermediaries use Fintel's service and technology platform, whilst the company has influenced £45bn+ in investment recommendations through proprietary advice technology.
What distinguishes Fintel is its unparalleled scale and depth within fragmented financial markets. The company advises on 19% of all new regulatory applications for IFA, mortgage and consumer credit firms—a significant proportion indicating deep regulatory expertise and institutional trust. This positions Fintel uniquely as both a technology provider and trusted advisor within the sector.
The business combines award-winning support services (including Defaqto, its product research and ratings division) with fintech solutions like Matrix 360, an AI-powered analytics tool that provides market intelligence and predictive insights without requiring specialist data science capabilities. This hybrid model of human expertise integrated with advanced technology enables Fintel to simplify complexity and help the financial services market evolve more effectively.
