M and A
UK's Brown Shipley Expands Regional Footprint

The venerable private banking house has officially opened a Nottingham wealth management business, which it recently acquired, under its new name.
Brown Shipley,
the UK private bank and wealth management house, has added an
office in Nottingham, in the country’s Midlands region, to its
network.
The move comes after the bank acquired Hampton Dean, a chartered
independent firm of financial planners, in July last year. That
business has been integrated into Brown Shipley’s national
network. As a result, the Hampton Dean team will formally operate
as Brown Shipley’s Nottingham office.
In October last year, the firm appointed Don Smith as deputy
chief investment officer and Paul Spann as private client
director. (See more details

Brown Shipley is a wealth manager and private bank with client
offices in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds,
Edinburgh and Nottingham. In 2010, it celebrated its
bicentenary. Its parent company is KBL European Private Bankers,
which from Luxembourg heads a European network of private
bankers.
