I set up Acanthus Consulting in 2014 in response to what I saw as a gap in the market for specialist research and marketing knowledge in wealth management and private client services, and a need for flexible, senior consultancy services for the smaller and mid-sized firms that are the sector backbone. Over a 25 year career I have held a variety of director level roles in private client advisory marketing with, amongst others, Rathbones and Barclays Wealth, and in financial communications consultancy working with investment managers, wealth managers, private equity firms, financial technology providers and professional services firms.
