OPENWORK EXCEEDS 3,000 ADVISERS FOR THE FIRST TIME AS OMNIS ASSETS HIT £2.5BN

We are pleased to announce that we have exceeded 3,000 advisers across the group for the first time in our history despite a long-term decline in the number of advisers working in the UK market. We now have more than 3,000 advisers within our core network, our protection business Owl and our nationwide IFA firm 2plan wealth management. We are also celebrating another significant milestone after raising more than £2.5bn into the fund range Omnis, less than 30 months since launch. The Openwork ‘Graphene’ proposition enables advisers to access bespoke funds at below-market prices from leading groups including Woodford Investment Management, Schroders and Threadneedle. Openwork recently announced two new additions to the Graphene range, a European Equity Fund run by Jupiter’s Cedric de Fonclare and an Asia Pacific Equity Fund managed by Baillie Gifford’s Iain Campbell.
