Commenting on the deal, LMP partner Spencer Hoffman said: “London & Capital’s long-standing success and stability is a testament to their comprehensive and client-centric approach to wealth and asset management.

“Their excellent client relationships, strong culture and talented teams position them very well for organic and inorganic growth in what are largely fragmented markets both locally and internationally.”
