Suffolk Life has today come under a new look Curtis Banks brand.

Curtis Banks today unveiled a new brand for the combined business.

Greg Kingston, group communications director, led the brand review.

He said: “The Curtis Banks Group has grown through strong organic growth, and also through acquisition. We want to bring a single identity across our group, across all businesses and products, reflecting that all our customers can expect the same quality service-led approach that underpins our values.”

Rupert Curtis, chief executive Curtis Banks, said: “Following the acquisition of Suffolk Life one of our strategic objectives was to deliver a single new, consistent identity across the Curtis Banks Group. As the UK’s largest dedicated SIPP operator, we want to continue to grow our brand awareness and recognition, supporting advisers who recommend our products and services for their clients.”

In a recent trading update, Curtis Banks confirmed its SIPP numbers had increased to over 76,000 by the end of 2017, with assets under administration growing to £24.7 billion.
