Hoxton Wealth has completed the acquisition of Manchester-based Haven IFA and added £140m in assets under management (AUM) to the group.

The move will see two of Haven’s four advisers join Hoxton Wealth, while the other two will retire.

Haven, which specialises in pensions and investments, also confirmed that its administration team will become part of Hoxton Wealth.

Hoxton Wealth’s revenue director, Oliver Gorman, said: “Manchester is a magnet for talent and enterprise. Establishing a base there is strategically important for our clients and our growth.

“Haven IFA is a high-calibre team with shared values: client-first planning, local roots and professional excellence.”

CEO of Hoxton Wealth, Chris Ball, added: “Nick Dando, Graham Slater, and Mike Leigh have built a fantastic business over the years at Haven, and it’s been an absolute pleasure working with them through this process,” continues Gorman.

“We’re genuinely thrilled to have Mike staying on as part of the team. His experience and deep client relationships will be invaluable as we continue to grow our presence in Manchester. We look forward to supporting the existing Haven client base while building on the strong foundations already in place across the region.”
