Acumen senior partner Nick Cosby will retire after spending two decades at the business, where he served clients in Cheshire and surrounding area.
“As my retirement approached I knew that I had to look for a successor to take on the firm that I have spent a large part of my career building. With Newell Palmer’s size and extensive resources I am confident that my clients will be well looked after, and I would like to thank Kevin and his team for making this a smooth transition.”
The acquired entity’s 119 clients will now be served by advisers at Newell Palmer’s Wolverhampton office.
