Eden Financial, the City-based broker and asset manager, has bolstered its wealth management division with the appointment of Alex Khan as a senior investment advisor, continuing a recruitment drive which has seen the firm make a number of hires from Barclays Wealth in recent months.

Mr Khan joins Eden from Arjent, a London-based investment boutique where he focused on US equities. In his new role he will focus on raising assets for Eden’s core investment propositions, including bespoke portfolio management and global multi-asset class investing, the firm said in a statement.

In December of last year Eden hired David Herbert from Barclays Wealth as an investment director for its wealth management division. Additionally, Alison Monk and Rupert Boyle joined the division from Barclays Wealth two months previously.
