In 2008 the founders of NORMAN & SONS met while working at Morgan Stanley on the first release of Matrix, a revolutionary customer-facing trading platform. We formed a vision of helping other financial services firms deliver similar user-centric products

From 2010 to 2015 we established and ran the digital practice at the consultancy Rule Financial. We designed and delivered products such as Horizon Risk Management for Deutsche Bank, Agile Markets for Natwest Markets and Risk Spotlight for UBS

In 2016 we founded NORMAN & SONS in London. Our first clients included UBS and Cloudmargin

In 2017 we grew from a team of 4 to 25. Our clients were split between Financial Services companies and product companies

In 2018 we expanded from London to New York

In 2019 we published the first research to compare the three leading desktop automation products (OpenFin, ChartIQ Finsemble and Glue42)

In 2020 we are helping Equities Derivative traders to envision and prototype a more joined-up user experience, developing a design system for a commodities platform and helping the world’s largest sports events organisation to manage their global events
