All are supported by our best-in-class research capabilities, smart technology and a reputation for high-quality service that has seen us voted the UK’s favourite DFM.

Introducing Investec Wealth & Investment (UK)

two people chatting across a table

Part of the Rathbones Group Plc, we are a leading wealth management business with a refreshingly human approach. When you choose Investec Wealth & Investment (UK) you’ll be partnering with a company with a reputation for supporting advisers with high quality, personal service, based on an open and honest dialogue, a can-do attitude and cast-iron integrity.

Helping you and your clients in any way we can is our first priority, which is why our focus as a business has always been on creating strategies and services designed around your needs and those of your clients, not ours.

During our 25 years experience of working with advisers we’ve built thousands of trusted relationships, earned a reputation for outstanding service, brought to market innovative and market-leading solutions and been consistently recognised by Advisers as one of the easiest and most supportive firms to work with.

Who we are

The story began in Johannesburg in 1974, when three friends decided to set up a business that did things differently. In the early years, as our team grew, there were never enough chairs in the office. Someone always had to be out looking for new business. 

Youthful, yet experienced

Although a relatively youthful name, we have a history in wealth management that dates back nearly 200 years through our acquisition of illustrious names on the stock exchange including Rensburg Sheppards and Williams de Broë. 

Never far away

We know the value of being local to you. With 14 offices across the country, from Edinburgh to Exeter we have a truly nationwide presence that allows us to provide exceptional levels of service to you and your clients, locally. Anywhere you or your clients would like to meet, we can be there.

We believe a structured, robust and disciplined investment process is central to consistently delivering returns in line with your client’s objectives. 

At the heart of our process is our extensive research capacity giving you access to the best ideas from all the firm’s resources. Our twenty strong research team has an average of 19 years industry experience across strategy, bonds, equities and collective funds.

Starting from global strategy and filtering down through asset allocation and sector positioning to specific recommendations in bonds, equities and collective fund, our research is channelled into a group of committees through which our investment policy is formed.
