By GlobalDataProgeny CEO Neil Moles added: “As we have said on many occasions, clients’ needs and concerns will always be paramount, and prioritised ahead of profit. We have a clear philosophy for growth, and clients – existing and future – will always be at the heart of this.
“This is why we have recruited a number of additional team members to ensure the integration of the Glendinning’s business is seamless and to be ready to hit the ground running for their clients from day one.”
The deal comes close on heels of Further Global Capital Management’s purchase of a majority stake in Progeny. The investment is expected to further accelerate the firm’s ‘clear and established acquisition strategy’ as well as its expansion.
In April this year, the firm scooped up Scotland-based Affinity financial planning practice.
