Australian financial services firm Fiducian Group has agreed to acquire another Sydney-based financial planning practice with $85m in funds under advice for a consideration of $2.4m in cash and some shares.

The deal will add an additional $85m to Fiducian Financial Services’ existing funds under advice, bringing the group’s total funds under advice to $1.71bn.

As part of the deal, the Sydney-based business will relocate to Fiducian premises.

Fiducian said the run rate EBITDA for the acquired business is $0.5 million pre-synergy.

The company added that it will not disclose the names of financial planners who join or sell their businesses and nor disclose the name of the dealer group from which the client base was bought.

Fiducian manager investment projects Jai Singh said: "The acquisition is positive for Fiducian and any ongoing revenue synergy will be additional and should continue to deliver excess returns to shareholders as realised."
