Mark Herraman is a Partner in the Asset & Wealth Management industry at Davies, where he specialises in complex, high‑stakes change across the Asset Servicing and Securities Services landscape. With more than 30 years of experience in banking, insurance, and asset management, he brings an informed and balanced perspective to both strategic and operational transformation.
At Davies, Mark focuses on supporting asset servicing providers across EMEA. He helps clients navigate commercial pressures, regulatory change, and the expectations of increasingly sophisticated institutional investors. Over the years, he has built a strong market reputation for leading large and complex transitional engagements. His work spans servicing model redesign, due diligence, outsourcing evaluations, and major servicing partner transitions. Throughout these programmes, he delivers clarity and structure, especially in ambiguous or fast‑moving environments.
Mark’s approach centres on helping senior leaders make confident, well‑evidenced decisions. He guides them through the realities of selecting or transitioning servicing partners and assessing risk. Because he has managed numerous large‑scale programmes, he anticipates the disruption that often accompanies them. He also challenges assumptions early, drawing on extensive insight to explain why outsourcing decisions frequently go wrong and how organisations can avoid recurring pitfalls.
Mark brings thoughtful judgement and a steady, composed presence to every engagement. His combination of industry depth, execution strength, and people‑led leadership enables clients to navigate significant change with confidence and clarity.
