The appointed representative agreement will have to be formally approved by the UK FCA (which should not take long) and will mean that Aurum Wealth Management and its Registered Individuals will place all of their business through Cheshire Trafford (UK) Limited in return for a split of the fees and the commission income due upon sales. Aurum Wealth Management intends to have least 15 Registered Individuals around the UK, hence the Appointed Representative agreement will expand the geographical reach of Cheshire Trafford beyond the initial expectations.

Cheshire Trafford expects to increase the total funds under administration by at least 100% over the next 12 months this meaning US$3,000,000 to US$5,000,000 of new business written per month.

Peter Smith, CEO of Argentum 47, Inc., said: “This is a monumental move for our business so soon into the ownership of Cheshire Trafford. We have been talking to the management team of Aurum Wealth Management for a few months now, prior to closing on the acquisition of Cheshire Trafford. The expectation of the relationship is significant, we will be providing the platform, systems and administration for Aurum Wealth Management in return for an initial commission on sales done and a 50/50 split on all trail fees earned (monthly recurring revenue earned). We can realistically expect to see Cheshire Trafford double in size over the next 12 months with some very achievable numbers being presented by Aurum Wealth Management and their team. It’s totally a landmark move for our company and one we are very excited about. It’s not every day you get the possibility to add tens of millions to your book without incurring any acquisition costs”.

Karen Wigg, Director of Aurum Wealth Management Limited, said: “We are delighted to form this relationship with the team at Cheshire Traffor;, we have a strong expansion plan in the United Kingdom and have been seeking the right partner to help us with this growth. In the team at Argentum 47, we feel we have the ideal partner to help us grow our business under the Cheshire Trafford banner and have immediately seen the benefits of this association. We anticipate starting to process business towards the end of September with the ground work already in place for strong fourth quarter of 2018.”
