By GlobalDataJonathan Polin, group chief executive of Ashcourt Rowan, said: "The administration of SIPP and SSAS schemes acquired with UKWM is non-core to our business, and this sale follows that announced last year of Ashcourt Rowan’s own SIPP and SSAS business.
"During the last 12 months we have found Mattioli Woods to be a sound strategic partner with the expertise, scale and systems to give the very best SIPP and SSAS administration services to our clients," he added.
