UK-based wealth manager Lincoln Private Investment Office has appointed a former Barclays man as a partner.

UK-based wealth manager Lincoln Private Investment Office, which has been recently set up in the UK, has appointed Chris Rowell as a partner.

The former Barclays Wealth man is responsible for growing the business through new client acquisition and developing the client service proposition. He joins the three founding partners - Ross Elder, Fred Hervey and Becky Robbins - who launched the company earlier this year. Previously Elder, Hervey and Rowell all managed teams at Barclays Wealth, as the wealth and investment arm of the UK bank used to be known.

“I am looking forward to working with this talented team again as we develop this new force in wealth management. It’s exciting to be joining this partnership that seeks to remove the conflicts that exist in the industry and which has its interests completely aligned with its clients,” Rowell said in a statement.
