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, and now has £28.7 billion in assets under management and around 400 employees.

Its combined offering to international and intergenerational clients includes cross-border planning, institutional-level investment management, and global tax and consolidated portfolio reporting.
