Shahzeb founded NexGen Solutions and runs every engagement as its principal.

The team

Engineers and advisors who ship it.

Every engagement is run by a principal, not scoped by one and staffed by juniors. These are the people who build it with them.

How we work

Three principles every one of us works to.

Being right is not enough in a regulated estate. It also has to be demonstrable, so it is built that way from the first day.

  1. Principle 01

    Domain-led, not tool-led

    Actuaries, quants and data scientists who have worked inside the industries they build for, so the model answers the question the business actually asked.

  2. Principle 02

    Production-first

    Data readiness, deployment, monitoring and handover are part of the engagement, not a phase two that never gets funded.

  3. Principle 03

    Built to be examined

    Documented assumptions, reproducible results and explainable outputs: the standard a regulator, an auditor or an internal committee will hold you to.
