Broad incumbents

• Brooks Macdonald: UK wealth manager offering discretionary portfolio management, financial planning, and investment advisory. Overlaps with Sol Capital's investment management service line for family offices and high-net-worth clients.
• Houlihan Lokey: Global investment bank with strong mid-market DCM, M&A, and restructuring practices. A scaled incumbent in the same DCM advisory and capital markets execution space Sol Capital Markets addresses but at much larger deal size and geographic footprint.

Direct peers

• 7IM (Seven Investment Management): UK-based discretionary and advisory investment manager serving private clients and advisers with multi-asset strategies. Comparable to Sol Capital's investment management / advisory mandates offering for family offices and HNW individuals.
• OFX: Specialist international payments and FX provider focused on businesses and individuals with multi-currency accounts and forward contracts. Most direct business-FX peer to Sol Capital's multi-currency banking offering.
• STJ Advisors: Independent London-based investment bank specialising in debt capital markets, private placements, and structured products for mid-market clients. Directly comparable specialty DCM boutique also serving corporates and financial institutions seeking conflict-free advisory.
• Equals Money (Equals Group plc): UK-listed multi-currency banking and FX platform providing corporate and consumer accounts, FX execution, and payments. Powers Sol Capital Markets' white-label platform (solcapm.equalsconnect.com) and is the closest infrastructure/platform peer for the multi-currency banking service line.
• DC Advisory: International corporate finance advisor (mid-market M&A and capital markets advisory) with strong UK presence. Overlaps directly with Sol Capital's debt and equity capital raising, strategic advisory, and execution capabilities.
• Oakley Advisory: UK independent corporate finance advisor covering capital markets, M&A, and strategic advisory for mid-market corporates and family offices. Comparable in niche scale and independent positioning for capital raising and advisory mandates.

Emerging players

• Wise plc: Public multi-currency payments and FX platform serving consumers and SMBs globally. Comparable for the multi-currency banking/FX service line, though more consumer-led with growing business presence; competes for cross-border SMB FX wallet share.
• Ebury (Santander FX): International payments, FX, and trade finance platform for SMBs and mid-market corporates (now part of Santander). Comparable business-model peer in the multi-currency banking / cross-border payments space.
