Having trained as a barrister, Justin initially took up corporate finance, working in both Africa and Singapore before returning to the UK where he helped in the developments towards Big Bang in 1986 in London that led to him helping to found Broker Services in 1986.
Broker Services went on to become Barclays Stockbrokers, where Justin was Corporate Development Director and in 2001 he co-founded Seven Investment Management, an investment management business that innovated the UK investment market with the introduction of the first Sterling Investment Wrap Account.
Seven Investment Management now manages and administers around £3.5 billion on behalf of professional financial wealth managers and intermediaries.
Justin has a keen interest in developing the investment market to break down as many of the traditional barriers as possible for both private investors and smaller companies.
As part of this he was involved in the original development of the AIM market and the investor educational company, Proshare.
He writes regularly for national magazines and newspapers, and is a frequent commentator on television and radio, both in the UK and abroad.
