Our take
Digitisation has revolutionised the way we work and has positively impacted businesses in their day to day operations. However, in the financial world, it's still lagging behind. Although it's a work in progress, it has a long way to go before it fully embraces the digital transformation.
With over 40 years of experience in the industry, Progeny has seen these changes occur and has attempted to evolve to keep up with the times. Progeny are the first and only firm in the UK to bring together independent financial planning, asset management, tax, HR and private and corporate legal services.
Progeny has recently acquired Further Global Capital Management and JM Glendinning Financial Services to accelerate the growth of the company with the aim of becoming the UK's best professional advisory firm. Subject to FCA approval, this will see the company expand into South Yorkshire and East Midlands, showcasing the company's ambitions to expand their market reach.
