Richard Mein, chief executive of Parmenion, said: “It’s been yet another fantastic year of growth for us. Against a background of considerable change in the adviser landscape, our ability to create the services needed by modern adviser businesses continues to drive our success. Building innovative technology is an exciting place to be at this time”.
Over the last year, Parmenion said it had brought on stream several large scale technology projects which were developed in-house.
These included what it called “the UK’s first automated advice technology”, an in-house Sipp and a redesigned adviser website.
Richard Goodall, partner and head of distribution at Parmenion, said: “Increasingly advisers are recognising the value and power of our integrated approach. By owning and controlling the three most important components behind an adviser’s investment proposition, discretionary investment management, custody services and technology, we are able to bring big efficiency gains to advisory businesses.”
