The annual awards hosted by Citywealth recognise the top-performing advisors and managers in global private wealth — from leading private banks to trustees, accountants and multi-family offices. Winners are selected based on criteria such as client testimonials and technical skills, with decisions made through a combination of judges’ votes and an online public vote.

Ollie, who joined Weatherbys in 2017, is Head of Private Clients. He is responsible for overseeing all of the private banking teams across all offices and continues to provide bespoke advice to a small, diverse portfolio of his own clients. Before entering the finance sector, Ollie served as an officer in the British Army where he developed analytical and interpersonal skills that have held him in good stead for a career in banking.

This award is yet another achievement for Ollie, who was also recognised as Top Recommended in the latest Spear’s 500 Wealth Management Index. The Index is often referred to as ‘the Michelin Guide of wealth’ for top private client advisers, wealth managers, lawyers and service providers for HNW individuals. 

Quentin Marshall, CEO at Weatherbys says: “This is fantastic news and a richly deserved award. Ollie is highly regarded, not just by his colleagues and peers, but also by his clients and fellow professionals. I am thrilled he has gained this recognition from such a wide and diverse audience.”
