Fintech R&D in Edinburgh
Main article: R&D for Fintech Projects
Edinburgh has a very successful Fintech sector - one which attracts much of the top talent from across the central belt. The RD Relief R&D experts have helped prepare R&D Tax Credit claims for many Fintech clients based in Edinburgh and have found that these FinTech companies are often developing new or improving existing insurance and investment software.
We have found that sometimes development of insurance and investment software (just to take the subset of Fintech that we have seen frequently in Edinburgh) sometimes gets missed as R&D for tax purposes, but appreciably improving legacy finance systems, and integrating systems that were not designed to work together frequently qualifies.
