Wealth manager Tavistock has completed its £6m deal to buy asset manager and Discretionary Fund Manager (DFM) Alpha Beta Partners (ABP).

Wealth manager Tavistock today reported an operational loss after a turbulent last six months, during which time the firm quarrelled with former investment partner Titan Wealth and sold its advice business.

Wealth manager Tavistock has confirmed that it will reposition the business after receiving £22m from The Saltus Partnership today for its network of 140 self-employed registered individuals.

Saltus has paid up to £37.75m to acquire Tavistock’s financial advice businesses, Tavistock Partners Limited and Tavistock Partners (UK) Limited, including the Abacus and Duchy brands.
