Wills & Trusts Wealth Management Group selects Multrees to provide bespoke white label platform
Multrees Investor Services has been selected by Wills & Trusts Wealth Management Group in a new strategic partnership providing a fully white labelled bespoke custody and platform solution for clients and advisers.
In addition to the bespoke white label platform, Multrees will also provide back and middle office support and investment services to the Wills & Trusts Wealth Management team.
David Batchelor, founder of Wills & Trusts Wealth Management Group comments: “We'd grown tired of compromising our way of doing things and limiting what we provide to clients simply because of platform developers' previous decisions. We needed a clean slate and the control to build a platform from scratch, entirely focused around our clients' needs and putting those needs first. That's precisely the unique and fresh opportunity that Multrees has given us; the stars have aligned for our businesses with this partnership. Finally, we have a platform partner that listens to us and understands that the needs of the client must come first.
Andrew Back, Chief Commercial Officer, Multrees Investor Services, adds: “The team at Wills & Trusts Wealth Management Group are incredibly dedicated to delivering the best client experience and service and our flexible modular services are designed to allow them to focus on doing just that.
“Wills & Trusts Wealth Management Group are the perfect example of the tipping point which many wealth managers and advisers are now reaching, having been shoehorned into a ‘one size fits all’ platform or technology propositions. Put simply, this traditional platform model is broken and there are many firms out there in the industry who are now looking for a new way of doing things.”
