Guernsey fund manager acquisition - MitonOptimal to buy Argyll


MitonOptimal, the Guernsey head-quartered multi asset management business founded in 2002, is to acquire a majority stake in Argyll Investment Services in Guernsey for an undisclosed consideration.

Following the acquisition Argyll will be re-named MitonOptimal Portfolio Management (CI) Limited.  The group will have operations in Guernsey, South Africa and Singapore, and $600 million of funds under management.

Argyll was established in 2000 as an independent discretionary portfolio manager. It offers investment portfolio management services, a niche discretionary fund management service, bespoke pension services and the Fortress Pension Plan.  Like MitonOptimal, Argyll is an owner-managed company.

The deal is subject to final approval by the Guernsey Financial Services Commission.
