OTA LEADERSHIP INDEX

Gina Miller

ARCHETYPE

The Disruptor

Contrarian and drawn to the edge; challenges the settled answer.

Gina Miller is a Guyanese-British business owner, transparency campaigner and constitutional litigant. She is the co-founder of SCM Direct (2009), a wealth-management firm built on full fee and holdings transparency; founder of the True and Fair Campaign (2012) calling for an end to financial mis-selling; founder of the MoneyShe financial-literacy platform for women; and leader of two landmark constitutional cases, R (Miller) v Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union (2016, 17) which established that Article 50 required parliamentary consent, and R (Miller) v The Prime Minister (2019) in which the Supreme Court unanimously ruled the prorogation of Parliament unlawful. She was awarded an honorary Doctor of Laws by the University of East London in 2017 and was named the UK's most influential Black person by the Powerlist that same year. She is a domestic-violence survivor, a three-time cancer patient in recovery at time of recording, and was a candidate in the 2025 University of Cambridge Chancellor election.

IN THEIR WORDS, WHY DISRUPTOR

The industry did not want to change. It was filling its pockets to the degree that it didn't see that it needed to change.

INDUSTRY RESISTANCE TO TRANSPARENCY

Nobody is above the law. Parliament had to be involved.

MOTIVATION FOR BREXIT LEGAL CASES

Be in places where you're told you shouldn't be. That's what I'd say to all young people.
