Financial Planning firm Continuum has reported 25% growth in new business in the quarter ending 31 March and has added eight new advisers.

The new advisers have joined in the Home Counties, Scotland, Wales and the South West.

Martin Brown, managing partner at Continuum, said he is confident that the firm can maintain growth in 2021.

Assets under influence for the Financial Planning firm have increased to over £1.27bn, with inflows up 11% so far this year.

Mr Brown added that the firm has thrived throughout the Coronavirus pandemic and that “there will be no return to the traditional ways of working.”

Mr Brown said: "Having our new advisers on board allows us to strengthen our presence across  the UK. We look to continue our strong growth plans this year, allowing us to provide support to clients throughout their financial journey’’.

Continuum was part of the Caerus Network before moving to being directly authorised in November 2018. In January 2019 Marlborough Group Holdings took a 19.99% stake in the business.
