Brief about Genesis Global

Founded in 2012 by James Harrison and Stephen Murphy, Genesis is a global financial markets software company that helps financial institutions with “buy-to-build” application development in weeks.

The company says, “With composable and customisable components, financial markets organisations can accelerate innovation today while scaling for tomorrow. Whether it’s extending the capabilities of legacy applications or building brand new apps or platforms, Genesis supercharges developers with reusable components, dev tools and a rich, interactive UI.” 

The Genesis buy-to-build approach for IT transformation is seeing more client interest in 2022, which is fueling growth. With buy-to-build, organisations quicken the speed of IT transformation since the Genesis platform makes it simpler and faster to develop new applications, as well as improve or replace legacy systems.

Financial services firms use Genesis across the software value chain to automate spreadsheet processes, enhance existing systems, replace legacy technology, and build new, robust first-time applications. This helps them to prioritise digital transformation as they look to stand out from the competition, innovate, lower the cost and complexity of current systems, and react quickly to shifting regulations, says the company.

Genesis has global offices in New York (HQ), Miami, London, São Paulo, and Dublin, Ireland.
