On 22 September 2025, the Board of WHI proposed the sale of its wealth management business to Oberon Investments Limited, conditional on shareholders’ approval.
Following the extraordinary general meeting on 9 October 2025, shareholder approval for the transaction was not forthcoming. This decision means therefore that clients and staff (including your Investment Manager and colleagues) will not now be transferring to Oberon Investment Limited, as had been previously envisaged. Details of the decision can be found here.
WH Ireland is now exploring alternative options with regarding to future opportunities for the business. We will write to our clients in due course with an update on this.
It therefore firmly remains business as usual at WH Ireland; you remain a client of WH Ireland, where your investments continue to be managed as they always have under the existing custody arrangements by your current advisor.
Should you have any queries in the meantime, please speak to your Investment Manager who, as always, will be more than happy to assist you.
