True Potential is offering shares for sales to advisers
Share
True Potential will offer advisers shares depending on the amount of assets placed on its Wealth Platform by February 2013, with a 50 per cent uplift on assets placed by March 20, 2012.
Firms previously received a standard 10,000 units for joining TP while the firm decided how best to structure its share scheme. The deal will be back-dated to take account of any assets placed on the platform since it launched in March 2011.
The number of shares received before the uplift ranges from 100,000 for £1.2m and above to 10 million for investments of £15m or above.
Those investing £16m get 10 million units plus an increment of one million units per £1m of additional assets.
The offer note to advisers states: “Nobody knows what value these units will hold, if any. It may be that we never reach a point where there is sufficient interest in us either as a trade purchase or as a public offering, in which case our value will simply be our profitability.”
The note highlights the sale of Positive Solutions to Aegon raised £136m for 800 adviser shareholders, with the top adviser earning £1.3m.
TP says it has yet to make a final decision on whether to promote the platform to the wider adviser market or keep the use of the platform to TP members and its deal with Positive Solutions.
