Commenting on the Final Results, Bob Woods, Executive Chairman of Mattioli Woods, said:

“These results reflect our ability to deliver high levels of organic growth, whilst pursuing our strategy of accelerating this growth through targeted acquisitions.  

“Providing excellent client service has maintained our strong record of client retention and we are proud to have reached the significant milestone of growing SSAS and SIPP funds under trusteeship to over £1 billion following the acquisition of PCL.  

“The expansion in the SIPP market seen to date will be boosted as SIPPs are becoming a mainstream pension vehicle.  I believe further regulatory and market changes over the next few years will present us with new growth opportunities and I’m confident we are well-positioned to take advantage of these. 

“Trading since the year end has continued to be positive and I look forward to the future with enthusiasm.”
