Barclays Wealth Management is pleased to announce two key hires within its UK Private Bank. Edward Chadwyck-Healey has been appointed as a Managing Director in the High Net Worth segment of the UK Private Bank while Paul Richardson has been appointed as Director with responsibility for Sport, Media and Entertainment. Both will report to Mark Kibblewhite, Managing Director and Head of the Affluent and High Net Worth businesses which encompasses Gerrard and the UK Private Bank.
Chadwyck-Healey joins at the end of October from UBS Wealth Management where he was Deputy Head of their UK High Net Worth business. Richardson joined in August from Coutts & Co. where he worked as head of London Private Banking. He initially joined Coutts in 2000 and established their Sports and Entertainment division.
Mark Kibblewhite said: “We are delighted to welcome these two key hires to the business. Edward has a tremendous track record as a manager with superb leadership qualities that will be invaluable as we drive the Private Bank forward. Private banking is as much about people as it is about assets and it is important that we hire the top managers available.
“Paul has a wealth of experience across private banking, particularly the sports, media and entertainment sector. This is an area of growth for us and his experience will be invaluable in providing celebrity and sports clients with a premium service. These are two of a number of top level hires we have made over recent months and will be significant as we continue the development of Barclays Wealth Management into a leading international wealth management provider.”
