ARIA Private Clients, the international wealth management firm, has announced receiving its Insurance Intermediation passporting permissions for Ireland, Portugal and Spain.
ARIA Private Clients is an international wealth management business, which provides wealth planning services across the UK, Europe and the UAE. The expansion builds on its presence in Cork, Ireland, broadening the service proposition there, whilst paving the way for new office locations in Spain and Portugal which are expected in the near future, the company said in a statement announcing the news.
With established operations across the UK, Europe, and the Middle East, ARIA already has an office in Javea, ready to accommodate new tied agents on receipt of the full MIFID 2 pass-porting permissions expected in the coming weeks. The Javea office will be well placed to serve an area experiencing significant growth among international residents seeking both lifestyle and long-term financial security.
Andrew Gibson, will lead the new representative office as regional head for Spain at ARIA Private Clients. Based in Spain for nearly a decade, Gibson brings both professional expertise and personal experience of integrating into the local community.
“I’m delighted to bring ARIA’s international private client expertise to Javea,” said Gibson. “I’ve lived in Spain for much of the past decade and chose to raise my family here in this wonderful town. There’s been a real influx of international residents who clearly feel the same way. We’re focused on delivering a high-quality, tax-optimised, and personable service — guiding our clients not just at a single moment, but throughout their lifetimes.
