Our combined investment and financial planning services allow us to look holistically at your finances. We will work together to help achieve the investment outcomes you need, whilst planning for the future should the unexpected happen.
We started life as a family-run timber merchant, and by 1912 focused solely on managing our clients’ wealth.
Today we're one of the largest wealth managers in the UK, with over 20 offices across the UK and Channel Islands.
We're also proud to support our wider community through initiatives like the Rathbones Group Foundation.
Our story is still being written – and we’re excited to help our clients shape theirs too.
Doing the right thing is about more than results – it’s part of who we are.
It’s reflected in the one-step-further service we provide from day one and beyond. Making clients’ lives easier today is just as important as delivering great results tomorrow.
It’s also shown in the way we invest – with integrity – integrating responsible investing principles into our process for decades. And because we believe others should benefit from our success too, we donate a percentage of our pre-tax profits through the Rathbones Group Foundation.
We look after individuals, families, and charities – providing services that include financial planning, investment management, and specialist trust advice. We also support financial advisers with investment solutions, funds and portfolio services – helping them deliver great outcomes for their own clients.
The sound business decisions we make aim to deliver consistent value for our shareholders – as well as strengthen the trust that clients have in us.
We take time to get to know our clients personally – then deliver a holistic plan and support that’s built around them. The successful relationships we build often last across generations.
Putting people first is just as important inside Rathbones. We aim to be an inspiring workplace for our colleagues – creating an inclusive and nurturing culture. Through Rathbones Inspire, and supporting organisations like GAIN and Future Asset, we’re also passionate about supporting tomorrow’s wealth creators, today.
