Hampden & Co has brought on Julian Wren, formerly of Arbuthnot Latham, as the banking director for its London office.
At Hampden & Co, Wren will officer commercial and personal clients with a “bespoke service including day-to-day banking, deposits and a range of tailored borrowing”.
Wren was most recently a senior commercial banker at Arbuthnot Latham for around three years, and before that, he was a principal at Wren Consultancy for over three years.
Before that, he was a heritage director at Aston Martin Works for nearly three years, and prior to that, he was at Coutt for over a decade.
Hampden & Co recently appointed Tracey Davidson as its CEO in May and reported a pre-tax profit of £4.2m in 2024.
Mark Plummer, head of private banking for London at Hampden & Co, said: “Julian brings considerable business, technical and relationship expertise to Hampden & Co. His deep understanding of client needs, developed from a career working with private banks, makes him a strong addition to the team. His appointment further underscores our aspirations to grow in London and the South East.”
