Spear’s Review

Andrew Penney, Sequent’s head of wealth planning, focuses on succession planning and asset protection for ‘internationally mobile’ families.

‘I talk to clients and find out what is important to them and what they want to achieve,’ Penney says.

A pivotal moment in his career was when ‘the arrogance of youth was replaced by the realisation that you will never stop learning,‘ he says. 

‘The challenge is then seeing how the universal principles fit together and applying past experience to help an Israeli family move to Brazil, or a Chinese family to invest in US real estate. It is the infinite kaleidoscope of different flows of people and capital that provides the challenge and the interest.’
