Howard brings not only her experience of financial planning to the region, but also a unique dynamic: she will be one of only a handful of female Chartered Financial Planners in the Middle East.

Stuart McCulloch, market head, Middle East, The Fry Group, said: "We are delighted to add George to our growing team. She joins us at an exciting time as we were recently awarded Best Adviser Firm - Middle East at the International Adviser Awards.
