Quilter Financial Planning has added eight new appointed representative (AR) firms to its advice network.

The firms joining the network are Quantus Wealth Management based in Eastleigh, Marston & Co based in Lemington Spa, Control Point Wealth, based in Royal Tunbridge Wells, and Alto Integra Wealth Management, based in Romsey, Hampshire and London.

London-based AK Private Wealth, Bexleyheath-based Everstone Wealth, Worthing-based Henley & Co. Wealth Management as well as Sterling Financial Wealth, based in Burgess Hill, have also joined the Quilter network.

The eight firms will join the advice network of Quilter’s wealth management business, which oversees £141.9bn in customer investments, as at 31 March 2026.

Managing director of Quilter Financial Planning, Warren Vickers, commented: “We are seeing a growing number of experienced advisers choosing Quilter Financial Planning as the platform from which to launch their own advice businesses, rather than joining existing firms.

“Many advisers want the autonomy to build something of their own and shape a business around how they believe advice should be delivered, while still operating within a framework that provides the regulatory, operational and investment support required in today’s market.

“That balance of independence and oversight is a key reason why advisers are choosing to start the next phase of their careers with Quilter Financial Planning, and we are pleased to support these firms as they establish and grow their businesses.”
