“The challenges of the last 12 months have encouraged many businesses and high net worth individuals to review their wealth strategies, with COVID-19 acting as a catalyst and fuelling the need to protect, preserve and generate wealth. This is turn has created a demand for trusted advisors, particularly as many of our clients look to future-proof their wealth.”
