Quilter Financial Planning has welcomed five new appointed representative (AR) firms to its advice network.
Quilter has partnered with Bibby & Co, a Liverpool-based firm launched this year by Chris Bibby, who previously worked for St James’s Place for just under eight years.
It has also partnered with Personal Financial Matters, a family practice in Wolverhampton, led by Babita Nahal and her brother Anil Duggal.
The pair launched their financial planning business after 16 years as a mortgage advice practice.
Adams and Poole Financial Services is next, run by principals Anthony Poole, based in Manchester, and Sam Adams in Uttoxeter.
Poole worked as an adviser for St James’s Place, while Adams was an appointed representative for New Leaf Distribution before starting the firm together.
Quilter has also partnered with James Joseph Generational Wealth Planning, based in Essex and led by Tony Farrell, a chartered adviser with over 35 years of industry experience.
Finally, Redgate Financial Ltd has also become an AR firm, based near Bromley and managed by Edward Tory and his wife, Emily Tory.
Stephen Fryett, managing director of Quilter Financial Planning, said: “We are delighted to welcome five more high-quality firms to the Quilter Financial Planning network after a successful year.
“We look forward to collaborating closely with these firms, supporting their growth and development plans.
“Throughout 2024, we have welcomed numerous new firms and anticipate welcoming many more in the coming year.”
