About Alastair Lukies CBE

Alastair Lukies CBE, a founding partner of Motive Partners, invests exclusively in financial technology (fintech) and business services companies that serve financial institutions, covering stages from venture (pre-seed to Series A) to growth equity and buyouts. His firm typically writes $1–$10 million checks for venture-stage deals and starts equity investments at $25 million for growth and buyout transactions, focusing on six subsectors including Banking & Payments, Wealth Management, and Capital Markets. Notable portfolio companies include Avaloq, Backbase, FNZ, InvestCloud, Anchorage Digital, and LMRKTS. Lukies’s distinctive thesis is that financial services firms are accelerating technology spending due to regulatory change, digital transformation, and competitive pressure from fintech challengers, and Motive does not invest in consumer apps or general SaaS.
