Adrian Durham 

Chief Executive Officer

Adrian has overseen the development, marketing and implementation of the FNZ platform in New Zealand, Australia and the UK since inception. Previously head of Credit Suisse NZ’s IT division, he was responsible for the initial development of the custody and reporting software that eventually became the FNZ wrap platform. 

Adrian led the MBO of the retail stockbroking division of Credit Suisse NZ in March 2002, which then re-merged at the end of 2002 as First NZ Capital. He was in charge of the FNZ business unit from its formation in 2003 and became its managing director when it was separated into its own company in January 2007. 

Adrian has since been responsible for the sales drive that has delivered all of FNZ’s current institutional customers in the UK, Australia and NZ. Today he spends the majority of his time on new business development and overall strategy. Adrian has a BSc (Hons First Class) in physics and mathematics, and a BMus in performance piano, both from Victoria University Wellington.
