Pension Lab, the specialist LoA and transfers fintech, has appointed former FNZ and intelliflo executive Kieran McGee as Head of Product for its Letters of Authority (LoA) platform. The appointment comes as large advice networks seek more scalable digital LoA processing and deeper system integration to manage high volumes of transfers, reduce rekeying and improve the efficiency of information gathering across multiple providers.
McGee brings more than 25 years’ experience in financial services, spanning partnerships, product strategy and fintech integration. At FNZ, he led the development of its global API ecosystem linking advisers, platforms and providers. Before that, he played a key role in intelliflo’s open-architecture strategy during a period of significant growth ahead of its acquisition by Invesco.
Scott Phillips, CEO and founder of Pension Lab, said:
“It’s great to have Kieran joining our growing team at an important stage for Pension Lab. The information request process is coming under greater scrutiny, as reflected in the FCA’s recent CP25/39 consultation, and LoAs play an increasingly important role in transfer and consolidation journeys. Kieran’s experience will be important as we continue to evolve our platform to meet those changing needs.”
Kieran McGee, Head of Product at Pension Lab, added:
“Pension Lab has already built strong momentum with its LoA technology, addressing a real market need and helping turn a long-standing administrative pain point into a more effective digital journey. The next phase is about building on that through deeper integration, smarter workflows and continued product development shaped by the feedback we receive from advisers, providers and schemes. I’m excited to be joining at such a pivotal point in Pension Lab’s growth."
