Titan Wealth has completed the acquisition of IWP, adding £6.9bn of client assets to bring the group’s total assets under management (AUM) to £44bn.

The group described the acquisition as a landmark deal and said it brought its number of client-facing financial advisers in the UK up to 225.

IWP will be integrated into Titan Wealth’s technology-enabled service approach, consistent with its operating model.

Titan Wealth added that the deal would enhance its ambition of offering advisers and their clients strong outcomes through local face-to-face relationships alongside in-house access to its range of advised products via its central investment proposition.

The group said it planned further international expansion this year, building on its wealth management services in the UK, Channel Islands, and UAE.

It will continue to make investments in technology, client service, and product enhancements, as well as strategic business acquisitions.

“We are delighted to welcome IWP into Titan Wealth,” said Titan Wealth joint group CEO and head of M&A, Andrew Fearon.

“Together we know we will be able to enhance our service offer to clients in ways that genuinely add value.

“Over the coming months we will be integrating IWP’s capabilities and services into the group.

“Our extensive experience means we understand successful integration is more than using the same IT systems; it involves a process of aligning cultures and identifying how we can enhance our service offer to ensure better outcomes for our clients.”
