Founded in 2010 as an institutional fixed income broker, Shard Capital has evolved into an organisation with over 80 professionals. It focuses on providing core custody and dealing services, with linked investment management and broking offerings. These business areas are distinct from each other, but benefit from shared expertise, networks and resources.
Shard Capital also acts as an alternative investment fund manager for a small to mid-size enterprise (SME) direct lending fund, and a seed stage tech fund focused on augmented reality/ virtual reality, artificial Intelligence and the internet of things.
Our front office teams are supported by a central infrastructure team which covers finance, operations, risk, legal and compliance, tech, marketing and product management functions.
We want to be the best at what we do, not the biggest.
We understand our markets and seek opportunities to innovate, evolve and diversify, by providing great service and value with a diverse range of products and services.
We follow some basic business principles
By living and breathing our values, the Shard Capital team is committed to delivering best-in-class products and services to our clients:
Whether we’re working with clients or colleagues, we take all our responsibilities seriously, and fully adhere to the regulatory and governance structures within our industry. This means we’re fully accountable for our actions and we treat everyone fairly.
Problem solving is at the core of what we do. It allows us to see opportunities in niche areas that others may overlook. Because we’ve grown organically and developed a broad range of services, we’ve achieved the right balance of being small enough to offer a personal service and big enough to manage more complex needs.
We place real value in relationships based on trust and longevity, where expertise and resources are shared openly. Thanks to the diverse background of our team, we’re able to deliver innovative solutions. We believe in our work and enjoy it too – this is reflected in the excellent service we provide.
Dynamic, responsive and flexible – we’re an established business with a start-up attitude. We’re passionate about finding innovative solutions to whatever challenges we’re presented with. This allows us to work quickly, without compromising on quality
We’re different and yet approachable. We don’t rely on corporate mantras; instead we focus on providing a tailored service to clients using our experience and wisdom while offering transparent and honest advice.

Meet All Our TeamsShard Capital has supported Walking With The Wounded since 2014, helping raise over £30,000 for the charity.
Walking With The Wounded aims to support veterans with physical and mental injuries on their journey to long term security, independence and employment. At Shard Capital we feel a strong affiliation with WWTW, as a number of team members, have served in the forces.
Their work is incredibly varied, encompassing housing, employment, medical care and rehabilitation. Similarly, our opportunities to support their efforts come in many forms, although our main contributions are through the charity’s two major annual fundraising events; The Cumbrian Challenge and Walking Home for Christmas.
