Mattioli Woods plc
("Mattioli Woods" or "the Group")
Transfer of SIPPs operated by Stadia Trustees Limited
Mattioli Woods plc (AIM: MTW.L), the specialist wealth management and employee benefits business, announces that on 15 February 2016 it was appointed to administer the Stadia SIPP, Noisnep SIPP, Essential SIPP, Essex Community Foundation SIPP, Hero SIPP, Investor Club SIPP, Ipswich SIPP, Liberator SIPP and Munro SIPP ("the Schemes") by the Schemes' operator, Stadia Trustees Limited ("Stadia"), working in conjunction with the Financial Conduct Authority.
Following a variation of permission in 2013, Stadia was forced to cease accepting new business and now intends to wind-up the Schemes, securing the benefits of members by transferring their assets to alternative pension arrangements.
Mattioli Woods has worked closely with Stadia to secure its appointment to administer the wind-up of the Schemes and transfer members' assets to new pension arrangements, including a default arrangement provided by Mattioli Woods, for a consideration of £120,000 payable over a three month period following completion. The estimated total value of clients' assets is £100 million, held between circa 1,200 separate arrangements.
Ian Mattioli, Chief Executive, comments:
"Our technical expertise and reputation in the SIPP market has driven this opportunity. We look forward to working closely with members of the Stadia schemes to deliver bespoke personal service and specialist advice."
