Chartered financial planner Harry Ford and adviser Ian Jones have joined Bradbury Hamilton and will continue to service their respective clients as well as taking on other clients from the BH database.
Sheriar Bradbury, managing director of Bradbury Hamilton said: “We are absolutely thrilled to add Ford Reynolds and Associates and Ian Jones and Associates to our expanding business.
“Harry and Ian bring a wealth of experience and knowledge with them, and are a perfect fit for the Bradbury Hamilton model. We look forward to offering their clients the very highest levels of service and advice.”
As a result of the acquisitions Bradbury Hamilton now looks after more than £300m FUA.
The company has acquired over 40 client banks and is still hungry to acquire more, Mr Bradbury added.
He said: “The introduction of the [Retail Distribution Review] at the start of the year has aided our programme of acquisitions and we look forward to welcoming more new clients on board.”
