David Harrison is the Chairman and Managing Partner of True Potential LLP. He founded the financial services firm Positive Solutions and grew the business to the largest in the country, representing 1,900 independent financial advisers (IFAs), with a turnover of £114 million and profits in excess of £1 million a month.
David oversees the strategic
and key business decision areas for the Group and is a crusader for technological advances in financial services. His vision is to foster a nation of educated savers who set clear targets for their future and use technology to reach their goals.
He also believes in the value of building the right savings habits and accessing investments in a way that suits savers’ lifestyles. This has led to the development of world-first technology such as impulseSave®, which helps savers top up their investments from anywhere in the world with as little as £1 at a time.
David invests in technology, chiefly by hiring the brightest developers from the three world-class universities on his doorstep. He currently has 24, most of whom joined the company while still students.
He is a regular commentator on the UK’s savings gap crisis and has featured in coverage by the BBC, The Times, and The Guardian.
