Duncan Stratford, managing director of Canaccord Wealth, said: “We believe Paul will make an excellent addition to the Birmingham team, along with senior investment professional Roger Sedgwick who also recently joined.

Senior hires, such as Paul’s, are key to advancing our ambition to provide the best integrated wealth management services for our clients throughout the UK.”
