News | Marcus English Announced as Equity Partner.

Hewison Private Wealth
25 Jul 2024

Andrew Hewison, Managing Director, and fellow Equity Partners are delighted to announce Head of Insurance, Marcus English’s, progression to Partner of Hewison Private Wealth.

In making the announcement, Managing Director Andrew Hewison said, “The existing equity partners of Hewison Private Wealth are absolutely thrilled to offer Marcus the opportunity to become an owner of Hewison Private Wealth.

As Hewison’s ‘Head of Insurance’, Marcus has successfully led the growth of our fee-based insurance division for almost seven years. Through Marcus’ leadership, we are offering an innovative and truly unique client experience in what has traditionally been an old-fashioned commission-based industry.

Marcus cares deeply for others within the Hewison business and leads our culture with enthusiasm and passion. He has brought incredible value to Hewison Private Wealth and thoroughly deserves this opportunity.”

Under Marcus’ leadership, the notion that protecting and securing your wealth is just as important as accumulating it, is integral to the strategies and advice our team provide to clients. This means that should life turn on a dime your most valued assets, and people, are protected if you are no longer able to provide for them. Devising tailored and appropriate insurance strategies for each individual clients needs and circumstances is paramount over any product recommendation. Furthermore, we do not accept insurance commissions from companies, rather we refund these commissions to our clients and charge a fee for our insurance advice. This is a unique model in an industry otherwise dominated by commissions, allowing Marcus and his team to provide transparent, unbiased recommendations on the policies and levels of cover. In addition, the support provided during the claims process cannot be understated, offering great comfort in what is typically a stressful time.

Reflecting on his progression and offer of equity ownership, Marcus shared, “I’ve been in financial services for 20 years now, and in 2017, when the opportunity to join this team presented itself, I jumped at it. I truly believe in this business, its purpose, its people, and the care, attention, and service we provide our wonderful clients. I am passionate about the proactive and tailored insurance services we provide, and grateful for the many client relationships we have and continue to build. This is something I have strived for since I started with Hewison, and I am humbled to be given the opportunity.”

Marcus’ trajectory to equity ownership has been a seven-year journey and is a testament to the significant contributions he has made to the firm and our clients during this time. Since joining Hewison in 2017, Marcus’ dedication to providing proactive and tailored insurance solutions has been key to building and maintaining our valued client relationships.

We are very much looking forward to this next chapter for Marcus and the continued growth of the Insurance offering at Hewison Private Wealth.
