Experience and expertise:
A history of managing risk
As former consultants, Acuity founders Simon Marvell and Richard Mayall, recognized there were significant gaps in risk management leaving companies exposed to unacceptable risks. Believing there was a better way, they created Acuity and the STREAM Integrated Risk Manager platform.
Leadership
