The Craven Street Wealth management team will also be further strengthened by the joining of Punter Southall Aspire.<\/p>\n

Following completion of the transaction the enlarged Craven Street Wealth business will have over 90 staff maintaining their commitment to the highest levels of professional excellence with 30 Financial Planners, of which the majority will hold Chartered status, with multiple having achieved Fellowship, which it the highest designation possible within the financial planning industry.<\/p>\n

To ensure continuity and business as usual for clients, a transitional service arrangement has been agreed, during which the transferred businesses will continue to trade as Aspire for a period of time and can be contacted using the same details until full integration.<\/p>\n

Tom Barnett, Managing Director of Craven Street Wealth, said: \u201cWe are delighted to be welcoming a like-minded chartered financial planning business into Craven Street Wealth, a practice recognised by clients and peers alike. This announcement is a further, concrete step towards meeting the growing demand for what we offer.\u201d<\/p>\n
