Leading national financial planning business, Wren Sterling, has welcomed a further 500 families with the acquisition of Howe Maxted Financial Services.
Based in Sidcup in Kent, the Howe Maxted Group consists of Howe Maxted Financial Services and Howe Maxted General Insurance which is being acquired separately by JM Glendinning.
Wren Sterling now operates from 14 offices covering 12 locations across the UK with other deals at advanced stages, which will further grow its network.
James Twining, Wren Sterling’s CEO said: “I’m delighted to welcome Howe Maxted Financial Services with their distinguished heritage and enduring client relationships. The team comprises very impressive professionals with the right blend of experience and enthusiasm for delivering for their clients. They have built a strong business through loyal client relationships and an excellent referral culture with the general insurance business that was part of the same group.”
“Kent is a location we have targeted for some time because of its wealth and proximity to London, which will allow our teams to work closely together and help grow our business organically. The proposition that we have built for Wren Sterling clients will also be a great fit for Howe Maxted’s client, including Magnus, our discretionary fund management business.”
John Austin and David Baker, Directors of Howe Maxted Group (pictured below), commented: “With origins dating back over a century we are proud to have provided quality solutions to thousands of of clients over many generations. Wren Sterling offers an enhanced range of financial planning services, shared values, and greater opportunities to benefit our clients for many years to come. Our focus remains on delivering personalised, high value planning services to clients within the security and framework of a national organisation.’’
