Adam Horn, Genesis’s owner and director, said “Having built up a base of great clients over the past 30 years it was important for me to find the right company to merge with.
“This process was made much easier knowing there is so much cultural synergy between our two companies sharing the same values, professionalism and client service ethos. Advanta will provide the resources to develop and enhance the proposition to our clients.”
Craig Webster, CEO of Advanta, said: “We are delighted that Genesis has decided to become part of the Advanta team and that Adam, his clients, and staff are joining us. Adam has built a fantastic reputation with his clients and we look forward to working with him for the long term on the next phase of his journey.”
