Citisoft, a global investment management consulting firm, today announces the appointment of Chris Rushworth as Partner in its EMEA business, strengthening the firm's capabilities across technology implementation, data transformation and artificial intelligence.
LONDON, Nov. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Chris Rushworth joins Citisoft from Alpha FMC as a recognised senior adviser for technology and data transformation, with 20 years' experience across asset and wealth management. His expertise spans data strategy, governance and architecture, investment platform implementation, and the redesign of investment and operations functions. He has advised asset managers, asset servicers, pension schemes, wealth managers and sovereign wealth funds on complex target operating model and platform transformations. More recently, he has supported firms to define and operationalise their AI strategies, alongside transforming data models for private markets.
David Higgins, Managing Partner, EMEA, Citisoft, said:
"Chris brings a combination of deep industry knowledge and hands-on transformation experience that aligns closely with where we see client demand developing.
"His breadth of experience across investment platforms, data strategy and AI will complement and strengthen our existing capabilities, enabling Citisoft clients to build more efficient, scalable and resilient operating models while translating emerging technologies into practical business value."
As Partner, Chris Rushworth will work in partnership with Citisoft's clients across EMEA on complex transformation initiatives, with a particular focus on investment platforms, technology and data transformation.
Chris Rushworth, Partner, EMEA, Citisoft, said:
"The industry is at an interesting point in its transformation journey. The conversation has moved on from individual technology decisions to how platforms, data and emerging AI capabilities work together across the operating model.
"Citisoft has built a strong reputation for deep investment management expertise and pragmatic delivery. I'm excited to join the team and support clients to turn ambitious transformation agendas into solutions that work in practice."
The appointment follows Citisoft's continued investment in senior expertise across EMEA. In June 2026, the firm appointed former Redwheel COO, Nigel Hill, as Managing Director and Strategic Advisor, strengthening its senior advisory capabilities as investment managers contend with platform consolidation, increasingly complex data environments and changing technology requirements.
