April marked the 10th anniversary of KBPR. The celebrations are still underway and we intend on keeping it that way…at least until 2020
Looking at our client list and seeing names who have been with KBPR since the beginning, I brim with pride at what the business has evolved to become. I also can’t help but reflect on the pace at which the landscape has changed since 2009. The financial crisis was upon us, auto-enrolment was still to come and social media was only just starting to come to the fore. 10 years on and the drive to get people saving has never been greater, Instagram is king and the UK faces an uncertain political future amongst the change in leadership
Whatever the future holds, with more range and diversity among our clients than ever, we’re excited to continue expanding and evolving. Here’s to the next 10 years

Events...
As always, we’ve enjoyed getting out seeing faces old and new, as well as catching up on what’s new in the industry. From client launches such as PASA’s DB Transfers Guidance launch and RisCura’s seminar on the rise of China’s A-Shares, to the European Pensions Conference and NextGen Now Navigating Change evening, there certainly has been lots going on
The diary is already filling up for the remainder of the year so stop us, if you spot us and say hello! Keep up to date with where we will be by following our Twitter here
And be sure to keep an eye out for Kate at the PLSA Annual Conference...
