We decided to partner with Quilter for a number of reasons including greater flexibility to meet our client needs, as well as a long history of success in the industry. We are excited to combine our experience with the resources and knowledge that the Quilter network holds, which will ultimately help to fulfil our purpose of providing high quality financial advice to clients.”
Andrew Greenlees, principal of Virtus Wealth Management Ltd says: “After months of meticulous research and thorough analysis of the financial planning landscape, we’re excited to be joining Quilter’s network. Our commitment to providing exceptional advice and service aligns perfectly with Quilter’s aims and values.
