Maseco Private Wealth, a specialist in serving expat US clients, has added Graham Aikin to its client advisor team.

Aiken joins from St James’s Place Wealth Management, where he spent time developing his own wealth management business with an emphasis on investment management and retirement planning. Before this he was with Coutts & Co, managing a portfolio of 250 private clients, many of whom were US nationals.

In other recent hires at Maseco, last week saw Gordon Hunt installed as chief operating officer, with him joining a team based in Switzerland.

He was previously a senior vice president and member of the management committee of Rothschild Bank in Zurich. Over a ten-year period, Hunt held the positions of chief financial officer, chief operating officer and most recently customer relationship manager for the private banking and trust division.
