Tony Vail
Co-Founder. Chief Product & Advice Officer of Wealth Wizards
I’ve had a passion for innovation for many years. I believe financial services sorely needs it, and technology provides a great platform to transform the quality and value of what can be offered to customers. I started my career at Prudential where I qualified as an actuary, but soon found that my desire to shake things up led to me into new ventures. I have been a founder of Egg, Zopa and now Wealth Wizards, as well as being an adviser on strategy and product development to various blue chip businesses along the way.
