Investing with care. For long-term security.
Rathbones’ dedicated personal injury (PI) and Court of Protection (COP) team believes it is essential to work closely with clients, deputies, trustees and families to help meet their current and future needs.
Our approach to investment and advice in this area is built on a solid foundation of experience and expertise.
We take time to meet with clients, their families and professional advisers to understand their circumstances, needs and objectives. It’s our belief that only by listening to and truly understanding our clients can we create strategies to help meet their long term plans and requirements.
Our team has over 100 years’ combined experience and over this time we’ve built strong relationships with professionals in this area. If matters need resolving outside the scope of investments, we can bring the expertise of this network to offer additional support. We are trusted to manage over £1 billion of personal injury settlements, making us one of the leading specialist investment managers in the UK.
HOW CAN WE HELP YOU?
There are two distinct elements to our services.

Business Development Director

As a Business Development Director my priority is to help professional advisers deliver positive outcomes for their clients, through carefully selected wealth and banking solutions that can be tailored to meet the client's requirements. I work with professional advisers to get to know them, their business and how they build relationships with their clients to gain a strong understanding so that I can best help them. It is also an important part of my role to ensure that they are receiving a high level of service. I specialise in working with Financial Advisers, Lawyers and Accountants providing business development and relationship management. I aim to add value by helping my advisers grow their business, and like to be a sounding board and to suggest ideas to help solve client problems. By understanding my client's needs I can help bring the right team together to support them delivering innovative investment solutions for their clients.
