Mark Aguilera

Founder & CEO TorreBlanc
Mark Aguilera
Mark has a 25‑year history working with wealth and global investment managers across both industry and consulting. In 2017, he founded TorreBlanc with the purpose of helping clients navigate transformational change in the operations and technology space. From the beginning, his vision for TorreBlanc was to build a consultancy of senior practitioners—professionals who have learned the industry from the inside by serving as full‑time employees at leading investment management firms. That foundation ensures clients receive guidance rooted in real‑world experience, not theoretical frameworks. Mark maintains a hands‑on approach with clients, providing thought leadership and practical best practices for mission‑critical industry initiatives. As the leader of TorreBlanc’s Advisory Practice, he believes client success begins with establishing a clear vision and roadmap that aligns with each firm’s investment strategy and long‑term goals. Based in Chicago, Mark is a corporate alumnus of UBS, Invesco, Northern Trust, and Perficient. He frequently speaks at industry conferences and regularly publishes thought leadership on trends shaping investment operations and technology.
