London, 17 July 2023. LGT Wealth Management, one of the leading wealth managers in the UK, today announced three new appointments to its Manchester office as part of its strategic regional growth.
Following the opening of its Manchester office in March, the team has been actively seeking opportunities for strategic growth and today, LGT Wealth Management is delighted to announce the addition of three new members to that team: Simon Reeks, Fahim Amdani, and Michael Waddington.
Simon is an investment manager with over 30 years’ experience working with high-net-worth private clients, pension funds, corporations, family trusts and charities across the UK. Prior to joining LGT Wealth Management, Simon was most recently a Partner at Evelyn Partners and formerly Head of Private Clients at Midas Investment Management.
Fahim joins as a Wealth Manager from UBS, where he was a Director and prior to that held Private Banking roles at JP Morgan and Barclays. With 14 years’ financial services experience, he is experienced in advising high-net-worth families on their investments across all asset classes and on their multi-generational wealth structuring.
Michael joins the team as Office Manager after spending the last seven years with Evelyn Partners (formerly Tilney). With more than 40 years’ operational experience within the stockbroking and wealth management industry, Michael will be available to assist clients and build the client support team in Manchester.
Andrew Davies, Partner and Head of Regions at LGT Wealth Management said: “Long-term investment in our regional offices is essential for sustainable growth. It not only allows us to attract and retain top talent, but it enables us to build robust local networks and infrastructure. By strengthening our presence across the regions, we can better serve our clients who are located outside of London, deepen our understanding of local markets and foster closer relationships with clients in these regions. Simon, Fahim and Michael bring a wealth of client experience to our rapidly growing Manchester office.”
Ben Snee, CEO of LGT Wealth Management added: “We are committed to the continued development of our regional teams across the UK, which we believe will be critical to our growth as we continue to deliver exceptional value to our clients. The opening of our Manchester office was an important part of that strategy and we’re delighted to see that team grow."
LGT Wealth Management will continue to build the growing team in Manchester, bringing greater expertise to clients in the Northwest region. Learn more about the Manchester team here.
