Independent Investment Management Company, Gore Browne Investment Management, Opens New Office in Harrogate Following Period of Sustained Growth

Harrogate, United Kingdom, November 14, 2008 --(PR.com)-- After a period of sustained growth over the past few years, Gore Browne Investment Management (GBIM) is delighted to announce that they are to open a new office in Harrogate. GBIM is continuing to expand its client base and build on its growing reputation for delivering a fair and transparent financial management service based on personal attention as well as a tailored and diversified approach to investment management. For more information, please call 01722 424444or visit www.gbim.co.uk

Heading up the new office is Mark Arkwright, previously Chief Executive Officer at Border Asset Management, who is delighted to take on the new challenge. Mark brings over twenty years of experience in the private client investment management world to his new role and comments:

"Since leaving Border earlier this year I have been looking to find a private client firm that genuinely acts in the best interests of its clients. Whilst many managers pay lip service to this principle, GBIM is actually structured to do precisely this and I believe this to be not only a successful model but one which is appreciated by their expanding client base. I am really delighted to have the opportunity of delivering a truly top class service to our client base and replicating the success of the Salisbury office in Harrogate."

Gore Browne Investment Management was set up in 2004 by Bertie Gore Browne, John MacMahon, Simon James and Elizabeth Pollard. Bertie and Lizzie were formerly with Cazenove’s Salisbury office, while John and Simon have brought management skills and international experience to the business. In 2006 the team expanded further with the addition of Charles Buckley, previously a partner with Cazenove. All are based in the South.

Gore Browne Investment Management adheres to its six guiding principles which ensure that the needs of the client remain paramount. To this end, potential conflicts of interest are avoided by making no transaction charges, using only third-party financial products and rebating any initial or trail commissions. It is hoped that Gore Browne Investment Management is at the forefront of establishing a trend which will be followed in the years ahead by the investment management industry as a whole. The six principles can be viewed in full at its website at www.gb-investment-management.co.uk/six-guiding-principles.php
