“We see significant demand and benefits in helping bring advisers and investment professionals together and I look forward to working with Tom and his team to realise the full potential of this service,” Hoare stated.

Enhance MPI is a unit of investment consultancy Enhance Group. The service offers a common understanding of investment choices for advisers and wealth managers.

The firm introduced the indices as a STEP Member Service to offer performance benchmarks, mainly for portfolios managed for persons serving in a fiduciary role. At present, the offering has 55 contributing managers in Canada, the UK, Switzerland and Singapore.

Enhance CEO Tom Wiseman said: “We are delighted to have the opportunity to work with such experienced professionals to help to build MPI into a truly unique and independent service.”
