Insurance and Debt Advisory Specialists

Our leadership team

Having spent more than 20 years working across the insurance and finance landscapes, J3’s leadership team witnessed first-hand the fragmented and sometimes, disconnected manner in which these two markets converge.

Setting out with the mission to bring finance and insurance together seamlessly, J3 was launched to fuse the two markets. Our aim is to enable property professionals to make better decisions, faster, while getting both the best finance and insurance solutions for their individual projects.
