BREWIN Dolphin, one of the largest private client investment managers in the UK, which last year opened an office at Apollo9 House in Eboracum Way, York, has won a prestigious industry award.

The firm has been named Best Discretion-ary broker by Shares Magazine at the Shares Awards 2009 ceremony – the third accolade the company has received this year.

David Williamson, director of Brewin Dolphin’s York office, said: “This is a tremendous achievement for Brewin Dolphin teams around the country. To be recognised through these awards demonstrates the expertise, knowledge and understanding our people have, and gives our clients confidence in our ability to manage their investments.”
