Our Story
We’re not just part of the film industry; we’re the guardians of its heartbeat. Since 1950, our mission has been to ensure the seamless completion of film projects, safeguarding the dreams of filmmakers and the investments of financiers. Founded amidst the tumult of post-war British cinema, Film Finances has been the cornerstone of film completion assurance for over seven decades. Our founders, Peter Hope and Robert Garrett, envisioned a world where creative visions weren’t hindered by financial uncertainties.
FFI has realized that vision and is known as the world leader in the provision of completion contracts to the entertainment industry for films, television, mini-series and streaming product. Founded in London in 1950 and now headquartered in Los Angeles, with 7 offices globally including London, Stockholm, Toronto, Cape Town, Cologne and New South Wales. Over the last 70+ years, FFI has provided the financiers of film and television productions with contracts providing assurance that such productions will be completed on time, on budget and to a basic pre-agreed specification.
