Solving Challenges with Gretel

Reconnect Customers, Repatriate Dormant Assets and Unlock Value

An estimated £89bn across 28m lost accounts remains unclaimed in the UK, with up to 15% tied to estates. Gretel delivers a fast, low-friction, whole-of-market solution that helps users find lost or inherited funds using basic personal data, uncovering £5m for 50,000 users within days of launch.

Solve Complex Data Problems and Improve Regulatory Compliance

Poor customer data limits compliance, increases fraud risk, and leaves firms disconnected from customers. Gretel’s fixed-fee SaaS model lets companies identify and correct inaccurate data at scale, improving compliance and customer outcomes without rising costs.

Reduce Operational and Transformation Costs

Legacy systems and costly paper-based processes make digital transformation slow and expensive, especially for vulnerable customers. Gretel delivers a frictionless, scalable solution that unifies data across systems and products, supporting vulnerable users while cutting costs and reducing IT demands.
