Simon Reed, Executive Director added:

In the six years since the launch of the Private Investment Office, it has gone from strength to strength. It has been very successful in filling the space that existed between traditional wealth management and a full-fledged family office, so to play a role in the next stage of its growth is  hugely exciting and I am delighted to be joining the team.”
