The annual accreditation is designed to measure, recognize, and accredit transfer performance. Three STAR Accreditation levels of bronze, silver and gold are set through industry collaborations and designed to reward performance and encourage improved performance. Wealthtime Classic has been awarded a Gold STAR Accreditation, across all performance metrics, covering the transfer processes and customer communication principles. \u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wealthtime also received a Silver rating for its ISA and GIA transfer services.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Patrick Mill, CEO, Wealthtime<\/strong>, said: \u201c<em>We support all industry efforts to reduce transfer times, there is simply no justification not to, given the clear negative client outcome of delayed transfers. We\u2019ve optimised our processes to help reduce transfer times where we can influence them, which includes doing everything in our power to help ceding companies speed up their processes<\/em><em>. <\/em><em>It\u2019s great to be recognised for our efforts, but we appreciate there is still work to be done with transfers and every sector in the industry needs to do its part to improve.\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Details about the STAR accreditations can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/www.joinstar.co.uk\/star-2023-accreditations\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&#8211; ENDS &#8211;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For further information please contact:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sam Prince-Mernick, <a href=\"mailto:sam.prince-mernick@mrm-london.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sam.prince-mernick@mrm-london.com<\/a> \/ <a href=\"tel:074%207135%201584\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>07471 351 584<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Notes to Editor:<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Wealthtime<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Group in numbers<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Private equity firm AnaCap Financial Partners owns Novia Financial, Wealthtime, and Copia Capital. Patrick Mill is CEO of all three businesses in the Group.

It has strengthened the leadership team, bringing significant experience into the business, and has invested heavily in technology through the development of microservices, which will bring both efficiencies for adviser businesses and exciting new propositional features.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The business is set to lead the way in next-generation platforms enabling adviser firms to construct their technology stack as they see fit, making use of a comprehensive suite of plug-and-play microservices.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-2564","press_releases","type-press_releases","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Gold rating for Wealthtime pension transfers\u00a0 - Life at Wealthtime<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Wealthtime Classic awarded Gold rating by STAR for SIPP transfer standards.
