Redmill Advance boosts position in wealth management training with Expert Pensions acquisition
Edinburgh-based Redmill Advance has acquired Expert Pensions, a learning & development brand in the UK wealth management and financial planning industry.
The acquisition will allow Expert Pensions’ clients to benefit from Redmill Advance’s digital learning management system (LMS), in-house L&D team, and a robust client support team. The LMS will host content from both companies, supporting employees with regulatory exams and hard and soft skill development. Clients will also have the flexibility to upload and create their own content for internal training.
Redmill Advance, which was acquired by Kinrock in August 2022, aims to strengthen and grow the business organically and through acquisition. The addition of Expert Pensions’ content library and experience will enhance the products and services for clients of both companies.
John Reynolds, founder and director of Expert Pensions, commented: “First and foremost, we are delighted for our clients. We have been acquired, and that only means better support and services for our clients, more secure infrastructure and more opportunity for learning from a world-class LMS and team.
“I am looking forward to being part of the Advance team to support your learning into the future. Its onwards and upwards on a new adventure. I would like to take the opportunity to thank the clients of Expert Pensions as it has been nothing but the privilege of my life to have been and continue to be part of their learning journey.”
David Tait, managing director of Redmill Advance, added: “Adding the twelve-year successful track record and comprehensive content library of Expert Pensions to Redmill Advance will ensure that the clients of both Redmill Advance and Expert Pensions will benefit from enhanced products and services.
“This acquisition demonstrates our commitment to scaling Redmill Advance through the strategic acquisition of other high-quality L&D businesses. I very much look forward to working closely with John Reynolds and the team at Expert Pensions in the months ahead to continue to deliver excellence to our clients.”
