St. James’s Place – one of the UK’s leading wealth management expert companies – has joined The PGA’s exclusive partnership programme as a Principal Partner.

Founded in 1991, St. James’s Place is a FTSE-100 wealth management business which has grown rapidly to become one of the largest organisations in its sector in the UK, with £135bn of client funds under management.

PGA Members will also benefit from a range of financial planning resources that will be made available through the Association’s online CPD platform, PGA Learn.
