About Us

Professional Wealth Management is the only magazine devoted to the growing model of using third-parties to distribute financial products to high net worth, mass affluent and retail investors across Europe. Produced by the renowned Financial Times Group and with an ABC certified circulation of almost 10,000, PWM is the premier publication on solutions for European distributors.

Banks and insurance companies are increasingly contracting out the management of some of their core assets to external specialist asset management groups. Clients are demanding access to external investment options.

PWM is the title that examines how and why these new partnerships are forming.

In an industry driven by regulation, education and commercial imperative, PWM provides strategic advice and information to the key decision-makers at all levels of European distribution.
