Sovereign, an independent trust company, is the latest group to sign a partnership agreement with FEIFA, the Federation of European IFAs.
The company manages over 7,000 trust structures for a range of client types, including law and accountancy firms, and individuals. It has also developed a range of supporting services spanning asset protection, insurance and pensions.
Sovereign’s alliance with FEIFA follows similar deals by the federation with F&C Thames River, Cheviot Asset Management and Alpha Real Capital last month.
Paul Stanfield, chief executive of FEIFA, said Sovereign was a “natural addition” to the federation’s list of alliances. “Sovereign offers experience acquired over 20 years in the field of trusteeship and pension services with the ability to service clients in their first language due to its network of offices”, he added.
FEIFA, a non-profit trade organisation for English-speaking IFAs operating in continental Europe, represents over 300 advisers in 25 European countries.
