Financial Planning firm MHA Carpenter Box is changing the name of its wealth management arm to MHA Carpenter Box Financial Advisers from today.

The division was previously called MHA Carpenter Box Wealth Management.

The division, part of a large accountancy business in the South, says the change reflects an expansion of services offered by the business in the 12 years since it was launched.

MHA Carpenter Box Financial Advisers provides clients with advice on taxation, later life and estate planning, pensions and investments.

The firm has offices in Worthing, Gatwick and Brighton.

Roy Thompson, partner and head of MHA Carpenter Box Financial Advisers, said: “Over the last 12 years, we have expanded our team of professional advisers to cover investments, pensions, later life and estate planning, and personal taxation. This enables us to provide the personalised and holistic approach to Financial Planning that is called for in the current climate.”

Last year the firm added 13 new trainees to its near 200 staff workforce and opened a new office Brighton.
