Evelyn Partners, a UK wealth management and professional services group created from the merger of Tilney and Smith & Williamson, is increasing its presence in Scotland.

This week, Evelyn Partners agreed terms for a new office in Glasgow. The move by the group will bring its Glasgow teams together in a single, modern, location that will support its growth plans in Scotland, the firm said in a statement. 

Evelyn Partners said it is well-placed to support clients with both their personal financial affairs and their business interests. The group’s personal wealth management services include financial planning, investment management and personal tax advice, while for businesses it provides assurance and accounting, business tax advice, employee benefits, forensic advice, fund governance, fund administration, recovery and restructuring, and transaction services. 

Welcoming the move, Paul Frame, regional managing partner for Scotland and Northern Ireland at Evelyn Partners, said: “We are excited to have agreed terms for 177 Bothwell Street. Our new office will provide a first-class working environment for our staff based in Glasgow and supports our ambitious plans for continued expansion in Scotland. The building’s location in the city centre, close to excellent transport links, makes it convenient for our clients to meet with our specialist teams and attend events.” 

Neil Coxhead, chief executive of Evelyn Partners’ host ACD and fund administration business added: “Our host ACD and fund administration business has its centre of excellence in Glasgow and the new office allows us to keep pace with our expansion plans."

"177 Bothwell Street will provide a great city centre location and modern working environment for our teams that supply specialist services to the UK funds industry," he added.
