Richard Rowney, chief executive of Nucleus, said: “By combining the businesses we can now develop bespoke platform solutions for any client. We look forward to the next chapter in our growth journey with the integration of Third, and to developing the opportunities opening up to us to serve the wider wealth sector.”
Ian Partington, chief executive of Third Financial, will continue to lead the business reporting to Mike Regan, chief commercial officer of Nucleus.
Mr Partington said: “We look forward to the opportunities ahead as part of a larger group.”
Nucleus Financial Platforms currently has more than £80bn of assets under administration for 250,000 customers and owns a number of subsidiaries including James Hay, Nucleus and SIPP provider Curtis Banks, a recent acquisition.
