Titan Wealth has received regulatory approval from the FCA for its acquisition of Independent Wealth Planners, marking a significant milestone in the group’s expansion strategy.
The deal, initially announced in December 2024, involves the transfer of ownership of IWP Financial Planning and IWP Investment Management to Titan Wealth. This acquisition adds £6.6bn in client assets, bringing Titan’s total assets under management and advice to approximately £35bn.
Andrew Fearon, joint CEO of Titan Wealth and head of M&A, described the approval as a “significant milestone,” emphasising that the integration process is now underway. The transaction strengthens Titan’s vertically integrated model by combining independent financial advice with in-house investment management and custody capabilities.
This acquisition follows a series of strategic moves by Titan Wealth, which recently confirmed plans to purchase Finance Shop and FS Wealth Management in East Anglia. This deal is expected to increase Titan's total assets under management to around £37bn once completed.
For IWP, the transaction marks the culmination of a major restructuring initiative that consolidated its operations into two regulated entities on a single platform. Titan noted that this alignment makes IWP an ideal fit for its growth and integration strategy.
As Titan Wealth continues its expansion, the group is also diversifying its offerings. Recently, it entered the high-net-worth sports advisory sector through a strategic partnership with Premier Sports Network.
