Paul Hogarth, Founder and CEO of Tatton Asset Management plc, commented:
"Our successful IPO in July 2017 has been very well received by client firms supported by the Group and I am also pleased to report the continued strong growth in our funds under management. This growth is further evidence of the increasing demand for a low cost DFM service to the mass affluent market place served by the IFA sector, which the Group is ideally placed to capitalise on.
"We look forward to updating the market with our maiden interim results in early December."
