Evelyn Partners, the leading integrated wealth management and professional services group, has bolstered its Edinburgh office with the appointment of Duncan Arthur as Financial Planning Director.
Duncan is highly experienced and holds the coveted Chartered Financial Planner status. He joins from Blackadders Wealth Management in Dundee where he was Director of Financial Planning and worked for more than five and a half years.
The news of Duncan’s appointment follows David Rankin joining Evelyn Partners earlier this year as Managing Partner with responsibility for its Edinburgh and Aberdeen offices.
David Rankin, Managing Partner at Evelyn Partners commented:
“I am delighted to have Duncan Arthur join the financial planning team in the Evelyn Partners’ Edinburgh office. We are committed to growing the strength of the team in the region and Duncan brings with him a high level of experience, which will add to the quality team we already have in place.”

I can't wait to get started, meet my colleagues and work alongside them to deliver high quality financial planning and wealth management services. I am fortunate to be joining a highly experienced team that will help drive Evelyn Partners to be the leading wealth manager in the country.”
