Novia has announced the next stage in progressing plans to bring together Anacap-owned platforms Novia and Wealthtime under the single group brand, Wealthtime.

From 26 July, the existing Wealthtime platform is to be rebranded to Wealthtime Select, with a revitalised look and feel throughout. The start of the final stage of the Group-wide exercise, which will see Novia rebranded to Wealthtime, will be rolled out from mid-September for customers and early November for advisers and will allow the Wealthtime Select sub-brand to bed in first.

The current Wealthtime website will be decommissioned, and users will be directed to a new website to access the Wealthtime Select platform which will host both platform propositions from September.

The two platforms will continue to operate as distinct propositions, meeting different price, investment and functionality requirements to service the needs of their respective customers.

Patrick Mill, Group CEO, says: “We announced our intention to bring the two businesses together under the one Wealthtime brand last year. This is a key element of our next stage of growth. The rebrand and redesign of the platforms builds on the many improvements we’re making to the business, including our ongoing investment in technology, and the commitment to make continual improvements to our day-to-day service across both platforms. All of these are designed to ensure we provide the very best proposition and outcomes for years to come for all our customers.”

Novia has already rebranded both its Bath and Salisbury offices, as well as all internal systems, to Wealthtime.
