Philippa Gee WM boosts team with industry hard-hitters

Philippa Gee Wealth Management has beefed up its management team with two industry stalwarts as it eyes further growth.

Ron Gee, former IFA and deputy chairman of FSA-forerunner Financial Intermediaries, Managers and Brokers Regulatory Association (FIMBRA), has been appointed chairman of the company and will be involved in steering the development of the firm.

Don Clark, founder and previously chairman of IFA Torquil Clark, has joined as a consultant to help drive the business forward.

The hires mark Philippa Gee WM's first year in business. Philippa Gee set up the fee-based financial planning practice in 2010 after previously working at T. Bailey Asset Management and Torquil Clark.

Gee said: "These significant appointments signal the next phase of our development. We have further plans in place and look forward to continuing the success story we have created".
