Titan Wealth is to acquire Dubai headquartered AHR Group (AHR), the international financial planning and wealth management firm, in its first international deal as part of a multi-jurisdictional strategy.
AHR currently advises and manages $2bn of assets under advice and management on behalf of its clients and employs over 150 professionals in seven locations across six jurisdictions globally, Titan Wealth said in a statement today (24 July).
On completion of the acquisition AHR will be rebranded as Titan Wealth International,
Its first international deal “underscores the firm’s ambition of building a vertically integrated, client-focused financial services offering across multiple jurisdictions. Central to this ambition is a commitment to delivering enhanced value and comprehensive solutions to clients.
This acquisition will bring Titan Wealth’s assets under advice, under management and on platform to over £20bn.
Founded in 2020 by Daniel Dickinson, Tyla Philips, William Burrows, Asad Sheikh, Marc Beattie and Daniel Waterman, AHR provides bespoke wealth management and cross-border financial advice, primarily serving the specific needs of expatriates.
With a significant presence in the UAE and offices in Mauritius, Malaysia, Cyprus, the UK, and Australia, AHR offers a broad suite of services including discretionary fund management, financial planning, tax planning, and estate planning.
The statement further said AHR’s expertise and approach aligns seamlessly with Titan Wealth’s mission to prioritise client relationships and deliver tailored financial solutions. The firm’s wide client base and experienced management team would enjoy the backing of the Titan Wealth Group, enabling it to enhance its service offering and deliver greater client satisfaction.
This strategic move would extend Titan Wealth’s reach into the UAE, “a market with significant opportunities for growth”.
AHR’s strong regional presence, proven track record and expat-focused approach presented an established platform from which Titan Wealth could leverage these opportunities, whilst ensuring that clients continue to receive excellent, tailored advice and support, the statement highlighted.
For existing clients of both Titan Wealth and AHR, this development also “promises an expanded range of financial solutions, delivered with the same dedication and personalised care they have come to expect. Titan Wealth is committed to integrating its range of offerings to provide seamless, high-quality financial services across multiple jurisdictions, enhancing the overall client experience, while delivering improved value”.
Andrew Fearon (pictured below), joint group CEO and head of M&A at Titan Wealth, said: “This acquisition is an exciting development for our clients, reflecting our dedication to delivering an integrated financial services offering on a global scale. We look forward to working closely with the talented team at AHR to build our proposition internationally, whilst helping them expand their services to both existing and future clients.”
Daniel Dickinson, CEO at AHR, added: “Joining Titan Wealth is a natural progression for AHR. Our complementary strengths and shared commitment to service will enable us to offer an even richer array of solutions to our clients, ensuring their financial needs are met with excellence on a truly international level.
“We also look forward to benefitting from Titan Wealth’s substantial resources which will support our ambitions for growth, improve the career opportunities for our colleagues and will reinforce the firm’s standing as an attractive proposition to the wider advisory community.”
