Founded by Bill Cuthbert and Mark Faulkner, Spitalfields Advisors is an independent consultancy firm specialising in the provision of securities lending advice.

Its focus is upon the provision of consultancy services to institutions active, or considering becoming active, in the securities finance markets. Spitalfields Advisors assists institutions embarking on tactical or strategic securities lending reviews. The company also reviews existing programmes and suggests opportunities for improvement.

The firm's approach is based upon the following premise: Securities Lending should be a low risk and revenue generating adjunct for businesses that either own or trade large volumes of listed securities. For a business that makes a steady incremental return, it is a market that can lack the attention and analysis it deserves.

Further information on the industry and practice is contained in our recent book entitled An Introduction to Securities Lending, the third edition of which was published on 14th March 2006. The first edition of the book was commissioned by The Bank of England’s Securities Lending and Repo Committee, The International Securities Lending Association, The London Stock Exchange, The Association of Corporate Treasurers and The London Investment Banking Association. It also has the support of the National Association of Pension Funds and The Association of British Insurers.
