SEVEN directors from Legis Group have been recognised in the Citywealth Leaders List 2013.

The list, which is published annually by Citywealth Magazine, features prominent figures from across the legal and private wealth management sectors. Described as being ‘as much for clients as for professionals,’ the list is a valuable guide to who is recommended in the finance industry.

This year sees the addition of Samantha Renouf, director of trust & corporate services to the ‘Leading Trustees – Prominent Figure’ category and includes two individuals from Legis Tax Services Limited, launched last year. Simon Graham, managing director and Francis Snoding, director both featured in the ‘Accountants – Prominent Figure’ category.

Four other individuals retained their position from last year’s list: John Morris and Adrian Relph, directors of trust & corporate services were each named in the ‘Leading Trustees – Prominent Figure’ category. Alison Parry, managing director of trust & corporate services and Stuart Platt-Ransom, group managing director each featured in the ‘Leading Trustees – Honours List’ category.

Charles Parkinson, Chairman of the Legis Group, said:
“It is great to see senior team members from Legis recognised for the fourth year running and pleasing to note that Legis’ presence on this well regarded publication is always growing.”

Citywealth’s eighth annual list is the result of extensive, in-depth research consisting of numerous interviews, meetings, telephone conversations and emails and all names have been put forward confidentially by private clients or peer recommendation. References, testimonials and confidential research have also been undertaken.

Citywealth editor Karen Jones said: “Legis continue to consolidate their reputation as a go-to trust company for the global wealth industry. Legis has broken out of its comfort zone with new offerings such as its tax service. It shows that they can look after their current business but develop strategic new services to keep the company innovative and financially moving forward.”

Earlier this year, Alison Parry was also recognised with the ‘Women in Wealth’ award at the Citywealth International Finance Centre Awards 2013.

“We are privileged to have such talented staff members and it is great to see this consistently recognised. Legis has grown in the last year and the 2013 list reflects this with three new additions. The inclusion of some senior members of our recently launched tax offering, is a very welcome endorsement,” said Mr Platt-Ransom
