Jan Purchase

Jan Purchase has been working in investment banking for 19 years, the last 13 of which he has focused exclusively on the use of business decisions, decision modelling (TDM and DMN), business rules, business rule management systems (BRMS) and business process modelling. He is a founder of a company, Lux Magi Financial Rules (LMFR) specializing in delivering the benefits of all of these concepts to financial organizations, as well as providing training and mentoring in their use. All of LMFR's clients have benefited from the adoption of decision modelling; one international client initiative included a set of fourteen separate decision modelling projects trained and mentored by Dr Purchase.

Jan has maintained a blog ‘Decision Management for Finance’ since 2010 highlighting the practical lessons learned from applying decision modelling and BRMS at scale and providing useful feedback to clients and vendor partners. He has published many white papers, hosted multiple webinars and chaired several public coaching sessions on the application of decision modelling and BRMS to problems in finance. Jan has been applying TDM and, more recently DMN, to finance and regulatory compliance projects since 2011.

Jan is the author of "Real-World Decision Modeling with DMN" (2016) with James Taylor.
