W1M

Spear’s Review

In 2024, Waverton Investment Management, an independent investment management house that provides investment solutions to HNW private investors, charities, financial advisers and institutional investors, merged with wealth manager London & Capital, a specialist wealth and asset manager that works with UHNW private and institutional clients, particularly those with finances, business interests, property and family across multiple countries.

The merged firm rebranded to W1M in 2025, creating a combined business with over £21 billion in assets under management. In a news release announcing the new name, the company said: ‘W1M will embody the strengths of both firms’, offering cross-border advisory, institutional-level investment management, and global tax and consolidated portfolio reporting. ‘These capabilities are designed to address the increasing complexity, internationalisation and intergenerational requirements of wealthy families.’
