The companies say that the service is aimed at those advisers looking to integrate a risk adjusted, investment management service into their Financial Planning process.

Ashcourt Rowan can also offer the facility for firms to create a range of Customised Portfolios to suit specific objectives and reflect different approaches to risk and investment management. Their flexible approach is particularly suitable for the transfer from existing advisory models.

Paul Miles, director of Intermediary Services at Ashcourt Rowan, said: “We believe being able to work with Ascentric will help adviser firms to transition their businesses in preparation for the post RDR world. It seems that our ability to offer a customised solution specific to the adviser is refreshing for many and works incredibly well in association with the Ascentric platform.”

Dominic Ventham, Ascentric’s head of marketing, said: “Ascentric users can access the Ashcourt Rowan models through our model portfolio technology, providing a simple and seamless experience for advisers and their clients. We are extremely pleased to be adding Ashcourt Rowan to the platform as demand for their inclusion has been significant and it adds yet more choice to the range of DFMs available.”
