8AM GLOBAL - Key Persons
Ash's father was the managing director of an independent financial adviser practice, so you could say that financial advice runs through his blood. He spent a period working as an IFA himself, so he has a strong connection to the financial advice community and their wants and needs.
Ash is not one to boast, but he has a huge knowledge of the UK platform market, enabling him to design and operate MPS operations smoothly at any scale.
