Principal Investment Management, the private client investment management firm, has moved into larger London offices. This move supports Principal’s growth plans which have already generated record new business inflows in Q1 and Q2 this year. Assets under management now stand at GBP1.1bn. Hugh Titcomb, Principal’s chief executive, says: “The last year has been a strong one in so many ways: we have embarked on a number of innovations; have deepened our partnership with many of our IFA supporters; have attracted new supporters; and launched major new services which have quickly gained traction in the market. All of these have helped us drive the business forward but inevitably all have required extra resource.”
