Methodology

Organisations are identified through UK Private Wealth Magazine's editorial research and through applications and nominations received on this site. Every entry is reviewed before publication, and entries are recorded only at the level the source material supports — where a website, regulatory statement or third-party recognition has not been confirmed, it is omitted rather than estimated.

Listings are presented alphabetically. Commercial placements are shown separately and labelled. The Index does not publish ratings, scores or rankings.

Submit or Correct a Listing

Firms working in private client lawyers can apply for inclusion. Family office principals and wealth owners can put forward an adviser for the Family Office Choice nomination programme. Corrections to an existing entry are welcome at any time.
