We are delighted to announce that our partnership with Edmond de Rothschild is evolving, as the family acquires a 70% shareholding in Hottinger & Co. Limited, pending FCA approval. This milestone represents a significant progression in our collaboration, which began in 2021 when Edmond de Rothschild became minority shareholder of Hottinger. We are confident that this deepened relationship will foster mutual growth and prosperity.
Mark Robertson and Alastair Hunter will remain involved in the business as employees and shareholders of Hottinger, providing business continuity. Their extensive expertise will be pivotal for ensuring the development of Hottinger and a seamless transition in the mid-term. Consequently, they are respectively appointed as Chairman of the Hottinger Group Board and Senior Executive Advisor. To drive the effective collaboration of both parties, Penny Lovell will be appointed as the new Group Chief Executive Officer subject to regulatory consent. Her 20 years of experience in this industry will prove invaluable in the integration of Hottinger and in further expansion of Edmond de Rothschild in the UK.
CEO of Hottinger Group Mark Robertson said: ‘I am absolutely delighted that we are in the final stages of concluding this exciting new venture. We look forward with anticipation to further collaboration with the Edmond de Rothschild family that will take our business to the next level. Furthermore, I would like to thank the team for working assiduously throughout this transaction and stewarding our treasured clients during this time’.
