UK independent private asset management James
Hambro & Partners is to merge with the high net worth financial
planning firm Calkin Pattinson.

The companies will aim to combine financial
planning and discretionary portfolio management under one umbrella
to provide a comprehensive service to clients.

The combined outfit, which will trade under
the James Hambro & Partners brand, will have over £1bn
($1.57bn) in assets under management (AuM), advice and
administration.

Like minded

James Hambro & Partners LLP, which deals
with funds on behalf of private clients and charities, said in a
statement about the deal that it is well-placed to capitalise on
the ‘post-Retail Distribution Review world’ which comes into force
on 1 January 2013.

Chairman James Hambro said the two businesses
were like minded, and the combination would give them a firm
platform for further growth.
