Brewin Dolphin, the largest independent private client investment manager in the UK, is delighted to announce that it is opening two news offices. One in Truro to extend its reach in the West Country and a new office in Brighton, as it expands along the South Coast. Both new branches will open this summer.
The Brighton office will be seven strong and headed by David Pegler and his colleagues Michael Phillips and Ewen Emmerson, who will all be joining Brewin Dolphin as soon as they are free to do so.
The Truro branch is setting up temporary offices in The Indian Queen’s Estate near Truro this month, with a view to moving into a permanent office in Truro City centre in due course. The office will have a six strong team of investment managers and their support staff and will be headed by Darryn Richards and his colleague Lee Dearden, who will be moving to Brewin Dolphin from Redruth. Jonathan Croggon, who joined Brewin Dolphin’s Exeter office from Truro Stockbrokers in July 2008, is returning to Truro as a Divisional Director of the new branch.
Jamie Matheson, Executive Chairman of the Brewin Dolphin Group said : “This is very exciting news for the Company and takes us up to 40 branches in total around the UK and the Channel Islands. We have wanted to open an office in Cornwall for sometime so we are delighted that the right team of high quality investment managers are joining our new branch in Truro. We are also very pleased to have found some highly experienced colleagues in Brighton, who will compliment the work of our long established presence in Eastbourne and help us expand the business along the South Coast.”
Brewin Dolphin is a FTSE 250 company with a strong balance sheet and a devotion to private clients. The Group manages approximately £16 billion of funds on behalf of more than 130,000 private clients, charities and pension funds.
