Alex notes FNZ’s huge success story

FIRST Minister Alex Salmond has opened the new global headquarters of financial services company FNZ at Tanfield, off Inverleith Row.

The company, founded in New Zealand in 2003, first came to Edinburgh in 2005 and now has more than 200 employees here. The firm says it is taking on 20 new graduates between now and March.

Mr Salmond said: “In just a decade, FNZ has grown from being a small team to a global business employing over 600 people.”
