Origin Financial has about £88 million funds under management and in the year ended 31 December 2012, the firm had revenues of approximately £770,000 of which £440,000 was recurring income.

All advisers and staff will remain with the company, along with Andrew Smith, current CEO of Origin Financial, who will become a divisional director. After a short integration period, the business will be operated from AFH’s Bromsgrove headquarters.
