Pearson Jones gets a rebrand after Standard Life acquisition

LEEDS financial planners Pearson Jones have kicked off business with new owners Standard Life by getting a rebrand.

Pearson Jones, renamed 1825, will be the North East hub for the business after being acquired by Standard Life in February.

1825 is the year that Standard Life was founded.

Tim Johnson, managing director of 1825 North East, who was formerly Managing Director of Pearson Jones said: “Unprecedented changes in the market mean that more than ever, people need quality financial planning and advice from skilled professionals.

“By becoming part of 1825, our expertise is backed by a leading investments savings business with experience and longevity and we are more able to meet this growing need.”
