Aspectus Group launches Capital Markets division as earnings hit £1 million

Aspectus Group has launched a dedicated Capital Markets practice after reporting over £1 million in annual global revenues across the sector.

The establishment of the new practice is a key foundation to the agency’s drive to continue its 25 per cent year-on-year growth. The increasing revenues are reflected in a growing team of specialist Capital Markets communications consultants, all based out of the new Aspectus London and New York offices. The practice will be led by Tim Focas, who has been instrumental to the agency’s growth since joining from Weber Shandwick back in 2013.

“It is an honour and a privilege to lead the Capital Markets team at Aspectus. These are unprecedented times, but our solid commercial and cultural foundations means we head into the new financial year stronger than ever,” said Focas. “Continuing to deliver considered and credible thinking to increasingly complex markets will be pivotal to ensuring the future growth and prosperity of the practice.”

Alastair Turner, CEO at Aspectus Group, added: “These are very exciting times for Aspectus across all of our core sectors – none more so than in Capital Markets. We deliver measurable business outcomes for our clients, wherever they are in the world. By continuing to integrate specialist sector knowledge with broad digital and communications skills, we are confident that we’ll continue to deliver strong returns.”

Aspectus Group has a diverse Capital Markets portfolio, with clients spanning market infrastructure, asset management and investment banking. The practice supports businesses at all stages of growth, from start-ups and scale-ups through to mergers, acquisitions and IPOs.

The wider Financial Services practice, with a focus on retail banking, payments, fund services, wealth management, crypto, impact investment and pensions, will be led by Emilie Rowe.
