Capricorn Financial Consultancy has announced the opening of its first office in Shanghai, China, as part of the ongoing expansion of its global operations.
Capricorn’s Shanghai office will be led by Sarah Jiang and support the firm’s large property partners in China – both estate agents and developers – whose clients who wish to invest in property in the UK.
The expansion to Shanghai marks the firm’s second international office opening in five months, after it unveiled its first office in Dubai in May.
Capricorn also supports clients from offices in London, Singapore, Hong Kong and Kuala Lumpur.
This expansion follows the announcement last week that Capricorn has welcomed ten advisers to its team to enhance and grow its global client support.
This includes the return of senior adviser Tony Sulić, following a brief period at a smaller London brokerage, alongside seven further advisers joining the London office to help with the unprecedented demand they are experiencing there.
The firm is currently supported by over 70 advisers who collectively speak over 20 languages, including Mandarin, Hindi, and Spanish.
Conor Murphy, CEO and founder of Capricorn Financial, said: “The opening of our first office in Shanghai is an incredible achievement, and testament to the growing, global demand for our elite team.
“We pride ourselves on our unmatched international presence, supporting clients in three continents with an unrivalled combination of language skills and industry expertise.
“Capricorn has grown from strength to strength since its humble beginnings in 2005, and today’s announcement is another crucial step in its fast growth journey.”
Sarah Jiang, mortgage & protection consultant at Capricorn Financial, added: “Having a team of advisers who can communicate in multiple languages ensures that we are able to relay precise financial information in a transparent manner that fosters trust with our clients.
“The opening of our first Shanghai office – our fourth in Asia – will further our relationships in this corner of the world, and cement our relationship as one of the leading, premier financial consultancies.”
