One of the North’s leading chartered financial planning businesses, Rosebridge, today announced the launch of its DFM arm – Rosebridge Asset Management Limited (RAML) – providing the UK’s first offering of its kind within the industry.

By working in collaboration with two leading global asset managers in Vanguard and Redington, RAML will provide unparalleled asset allocation and fund selection analysis for its innovative range of risk rated active and passive investment solutions.

This is the first custom model portfolio solution global investment management firm, Vanguard, has entered into in the UK to date. They currently hold approximately $7Tn in assets under management, with a client base spanning 30 million worldwide,[1] and it is one of the first partnerships of its kind for Redington’s Global Assets team, which provides advice to institutional clients with an aggregate of +£500bn in assets.

Phil Rose, CEO of Rosebridge Asset Management Limited commented: “We are delighted to work alongside both Vanguard and Redington to launch our new proposition. We know that joining forces with two such renowned global asset managers and harnessing their collective expertise, research capabilities and bargaining powers will ultimately translate into better investor outcomes.

“The UK financial planning community is striving for this, and I believe we will see larger mid-market financial advice companies, not only build bespoke relationships with global investment firms, but also with platform providers to help increase efficiencies, reduce costs but most importantly enhance the service level agreements offered to consumers.

“We began the process of developing an innovative DFM proposition over two years ago. Thanks to the invaluable guidance of our Investment Committee, we took the decision to look for global active and passive investment specialists to work alongside in order to strengthen our consumer proposition.”

The strength of this expert duo is unrivalled and will provide investors with access to innovative active and passive investment solutions – the former being built on Redington’s market leading research and fund selection processes and the latter utilising Vanguard’s array of low-cost index tracking funds.

Additionally, the RAML Investment Committee bring a wealth of experience, retaining the independent expertise of Graham Harrison (Group Chairman of Asset Risk Consultants) to provide direction and unique industry insight, Peter Bickley (ex-Chief Strategist at Deutsche Bank UK) to monitor and review asset allocations and Mark Harris (award winning ex Henderson fund of funds manager) to provide quantitative and qualitative fund research analysis.

Phil added: “These bespoke relationships will ensure RAML’s investment solutions remain relevant and appropriate for the ever-changing investment landscape both now and in the future.”

Neil Cowell, Head of UK Distribution, Vanguard UK, commented: “We are delighted to work alongside Rosebridge Asset Management Limited for what is our first custom model portfolio solution with a financial advice firm in the UK. We’ve had a longstanding relationship, dating back many years with Rosebridge, and share many of the same principles; namely delivering value to investors, a relentless focus on low-cost solutions, and a shared alignment on investment philosophy. We will launch a range of index fund-based model portfolios later this year that we trust will continue to serve Rosebridge and their clients going forward.”

Determining the right investment specialists to work with posed a significant challenge to RAML given the high volume of active investment specialists. “Ultimately, it was Redington’s robust asset allocation, quantitative and qualitative research processes that truly set them apart.” said Phil.

Tara Gillespie, Head of Global Assets at Redington, commented: “We are delighted to be supporting Rosebridge Asset Management Limited in getting the best outcomes for their clients through outcome focused strategic asset allocation and manager selection advice. Supported by the deep expertise across our business, we will bring institutional strength solutions and access to innovative, best-in-class investment opportunities to RAML and their clients.”

RAML will be partnering with AJ Bell’s institutional platform to deliver their new investment solutions. 

Phil added: “AJ Bell’s status as a FTSE 250 listed company greatly reduces the risk of a private equity take over. In our experience such events have caused significant upheaval, client uncertainty and poor service outcomes – this is something we wish to try and avoid.

“Whilst it has been a long and at times difficult process, we believe the bespoke relationships we have forged will place our innovative range of risk rated active and passive investment solutions ahead of those available within the wider financial planning community.” 

Rosebridge Asset Management Limited is a UK based company – more details about the platform can be found here: https://rosebridgeassetmanagement.com/

FAST-growing Anthesis, the leading international sustainability consultancy, backed by Palatine since early 2021, has acquired an impact-led creative change agency, the sixth strategic deal since investment. 

The latest addition to the Anthesis Group is Charlescannon, a Switzerland-headquartered business providing leading corporates with strategic communications and brand narratives. Founded in 2007 it has a team of more than 40 strategists, copywriters, designers, project managers, photographers, videographers and developers. 

The acquisition comes amid a rise of regulatory and stakeholder pressures for credible communications on sustainability goals and the risks surrounding greenwashing and ESG misrepresentation.  

Charlescannon’s clients range from multi-national brands such as Nestle to health-related charities, including the World Heart Day campaign, which was activated in 170 countries and 48 languages. 

Stuart McLachlan, CEO of Anthesis, comments, “Organisations progressing their sustainability goals deserve to be rewarded in brand value and positive stakeholder engagement, however growing nervousness around greenwashing accusations drives reluctance to communicate.  

“By blending Anthesis’ deep technical and scientific expertise with the creative and strategic approaches of the Charlescannon team, we’re providing our clients with the necessary platform to communicate confidently, delivered by one team who can guide them throughout their sustainable performance journey.” 

Ben Pankhurst, Founder and CEO of Chalescannon, said, “Creativity is the catalyst that inspires the ‘doing’ in sustainability. Together, we have the potential to accelerate transformative change and make sustainable performance a habit.” 

The deal further establishes Anthesis in the Swiss market and bolsters its established communications capabilities beyond impactful corporate narratives and positioning, education and stakeholder engagement strategies, and best-in-class sustainability and ESG reports. 

The combined team brings Anthesis Group to 1,250 sustainability specialists with offices in 23 countries. Earlier this month Anthesis acquired global ESG advisory firm Walbrook.

One of the things that make The Match so enjoyable is the lively atmosphere it creates. The golfers are mic’d up, allowing viewers to hear their conversations and banter on the course.

The Match 2023 schedule

The Match 2023 will take place at the Wynn Golf Club at the Wynn Las Vegas resort, a familiar location for golf enthusiasts. The event will feature a match play format, with 12 holes to be played. Each hole will follow a scramble format, with the teams picking their best ball for each shot. The lowest score on a hole wins, and in case of a tie, the hole is halved.

The Match has become an annual fixture on golf fan’s calendars, alongside the biggest PGA Tour tournaments and the four major golf tournaments. And 2023 is not going to be breaking that tradition, as details for The Match 2023 have been announced, including the foursome set to square off on the links.

What has made The Match (or, as it is officially known, Capital One’s The Match) such a fun event since its inception in the early days of the pandemic is that it takes golfers closer to the action than ever before with the golfers mic’d up, features fantastic commentary, including from Charles Barkley ribbing the participants (and them back to him) and a general sense of fun as the big winner are the charities that The Match raises money for.

The competitors for The Match 2023 aren’t professional golfers, but are champions in their own right, so they definitely still want to win. Plus, it can make it fun to watch golfers who aren’t quite PGA Tour quality show what they got.

A pair of superstar pairings take center stage in The Match.

The Match has transformed from a pro-am golf exhibition to a showcase of stars in recent years, with a 2022 edition of The Match the first to feature all amateur golfers; Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers upended Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes, proving that the old guys still got it.

This year, it’s a cross-sport exhibition featuring two sets of high-profile teammates in their respective sports: Kansas City Chiefs greats Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce take on Golden State Warriors superstars Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson at the Wynn Golf Club in Las Vegas.

Kelce and Thompson are making their Match debuts, but Mahomes and Curry are familiar with the made-for-TV golf showdown. Both former league MVPs are making their second appearance in The Match, and both are looking for their first wins in the event.

The renowned celebrity golf tournament, The Match, is returning this year with an interesting twist: NFL vs. NBA. The biannual event will take place on Thursday, June 29 at the prestigious Wynn Las Vagas Golf Club, featuring Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce against NBA’s Golden State players Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson.

The much-anticipated tournament of the year will be televised on TNT. It would be the second edition of The Match to exclude golfers from the team.

Last year’s June edition featured an exclusive all-NFL players tournament, which was held between a team of Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers against Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes.

The Match 2023 will be back at Wynn Golf Club for the third time since the inception of the celebrity golf tournament in 2018. It is set to tee off on Thursday, June 29 at 6:30 PM ET.

It is pertinent to note that Stephen Curry and Patrick Mahomes have competed at the event in the past. However, Klay Thompson and Travis Kelce will have their first taste of the event.

What started as a showdown between two of golf’s legends transformed into a made-for-television pandemic programming event and has now, maintaining its celebrity flair, morphed into something else.

The eighth edition of “The Match” takes place Thursday at the Wynn Golf Club in Las Vegas, and will feature a pair of the most popular championship duos going against each other: the Kansas City Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, and the Golden State Warriors’ Steph Curry and Klay Thompson.

Normally, the event features a non-golfer with a professional. Last year’s version, also at the Wynn between Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers facing Josh Allen and Mahomes, was the first one to feature all athletes from another sport. And this “Match” will be the first pitting teammates from two different sports against one another.

The Number of Employed Individuals has Been Consistently Increasing in the First Half – Analysing the Odds of Reaching Your Dream Job

News Desk

In our society, we all have to work. So, for many of us, our jobs are a necessary evil. Sure, we might enjoy them. But how many of us work a job we love? Our dream job. Well, according to a study done by JobSage, it’s only 1 in 10 Americans. In fact, over half the people surveyed didn’t even think their dream career would fit in with the current economy. They’re some pretty sad statistics.

Recently in the United Kingdom, where the number of employed individuals has been consistently increasing in the first half of 2023. From February to April 2023, the employment rate was estimated at 76.0%, a 0.2 percentage point increase from November 2022 to January 2023 rate. This could only mean one thing – increased competition for jobs.

But does that mean we should just give up on landing the job of our dreams? And are we more likely to work in our ideal career or win the lottery? Well, you’re in the right place. We’ll ask the important questions (and more) about getting into your perfect career.

Understanding The Odds

There are thousands of careers you can pursue in a lifetime. You can be a baker, a professional recruiter, an author, a member of Congress, an astronaut, or a Youtube star. And that’s just scratching the surface. As previously mentioned, there is increasing competition across various industries.

But understanding the odds of whether you’ll become the next Anna Wintour or not comes down to a few key details.

  • What industry do you want to be in?
  • Your skills and qualifications.
  • And how many people also want to get into the same dream job?

If you’re the only person in the world wanting your ideal career, well, perfect. The job’s a good ‘un. You can essentially walk into it. But if you’re one out of hundreds, a far more likely eventuality, those odds will change pretty dramatically. In fact, on average, each job opening in the United States attracts 250 applications. With the odds of landing a dream job like these, you need an edge to stand out in the market.

The Job Makes A Difference

So, you can see, what you want to do can make a massive difference in the likelihood of securing that big-time job.

If you dream of becoming a pro athlete, you’re far more likely to get into the pros in men’s ice hockey than basketball. And if you’re a woman, getting to the professional basketball leagues is significantly harder than for men. But none of that compares to the odds of making it in business.

Even with an MBA, you only have a 1 in 135,000 chance of becoming a Fortune 500 CEO. While you’ve got a better chance of launching a successful startup, 1 in 200, that isn’t a guarantee of lifelong success doing the thing you love. And don’t get us started on becoming the president of the United States of America. Those odds are 1 in 10,000,000. Yeah, pretty unachievable.

Dream Job vs….?

Let’s put it all into perspective. Why not compare the odds of landing the dream job with other improbable things?

And we’ll start strong with the lottery. While dreams of winning may entice us, statistics prove otherwise. The odds of securing a life-altering jackpot are infinitesimal. To put it into perspective, it’s about a 1 in 45 million chance. Now, the odds of a dream job aren’t anywhere near that, but they can feel even more daunting. It could be because the idea of winning the lottery is so detached that we can’t understand it. The numbers are way too big. Too incomprehensible.

The odd of successfully climbing Mount Everest are more in your favor than winning the lottery. And, depending on your chosen career, they’re also more on your side. As a confidence boost, you’re more likely to date a supermodel than you are to become a successful CEO. And while becoming a movie star has 1 in 1,505,000 odds, that doesn’t put you out of the awards running. Yes, you’re more likely to win an Oscar than you are to grace the big screen, standing at a 1 in 11,500 chance.

And your dream job isn’t just about what industry you’re in. It’s also about who you are. If you’re born into wealth, you’re more likely to see success. And if you’re already famous, well, you can do almost anything. Kim Kardashian winning the 2024 presidency sits at a 1 in 150 chance. Higher than some seasoned politicians. Go figure.

Finally, take, for example, the chances of becoming a pro-NBA player. Becoming a professional NBA player has a slim chance of 0.03% (1 in 3333). The San Antonio Spurs recently won the NBA draft lottery, also called the Victor Wembanyama sweepstakes. It’s noteworthy that even as professional athletes, their chances of getting the top pick in May 2023 were only 14%. Despite this, they succeeded in making the No. 1 overall selection in the June 2023 NBA draft. This shows that even though the odds are slim if you put in the hard work, effort, and determination, anything is possible.

So, don’t give up. You may not be a Fortune 500 CEO or an Oscar winner just yet. Also, keep in mind that the odds we’ve sourced are based on getting to be the best of the best. The piece de resistance of your industry. Is that what a dream job is really about? And what if you don’t have a clue what your dream is?

Finding Your Dream Job

Comparing the chances of becoming an NBA star to Kim Kardashian becoming the president is all fun and games. But, in all seriousness, that’s not really what dream jobs are about, right? It’s not about always being the best of the best.

Did you know that the odds of landing a good salary increase when you change jobs? So maybe it doesn’t matter whether you land your perfect job immediately. Maybe it’s just more about getting on the right path.

Finding a dream job should be more about what makes you happy. So if you don’t know what you wanna do, where do you start? Well, here are a few key steps to finding your dream job.

Find Your Passion

Start by figuring out what makes you tick. The thing that you find exciting and aligns with what you want to achieve in life.

Research, Research, Research

Know what you’re getting yourself into. Read about industry trends, prospects, and any skills you might need to stand out.

Get Networking

Making friends in any field is an integral way to get ahead and make waves. Attend industry events, get on social media, and look for mentors.

Polish Your Skills

It’s time to put your student hat back on. Yes, you probably have skills in your chosen area anyway. But polishing them more won’t hurt your chances.

Get Out There

And it’s as simple as that. Get yourself out there!

Wrapping Up

So there you have it. You’re more likely to win an Oscar than you are to launch a successful startup. Who would’ve thought it?

Now, many of these stats and odds are pretty outlandish. But don’t let them hold you back from actually pursuing your dreams. There’s nothing more worth working towards than a job you love in an industry you enjoy being a part of.

When you begin your dream job and look forward to a better quality of life and higher income, it’s important to keep in mind economic factors like inflation. In the United Kingdom, it’s worth noting that from December 2022 to February 2023, there was a decrease in growth for both total and regular pay once adjusted for inflation. Total pay decreased by 3.0% and regular pay fell by 2.3%. So while your dream job may not be as profitable as you thought, it’s still worth pursuing!

Our time-tested recipe has become a household favorite, ensuring flavor with our Southern-style buttermilk marinade and hand-breaded perfection with every order.”

Pigott also invited everyone in London to visit their Cambridge Circus restaurant on the Fourth of July to witness the Slimdependence Day parade. The event promises traditional Fourth of July style acts, including stilt walkers, fireworks, and, of course, an abundance of food.

Yeni Raki, the renowned raki brand with a history of 500 years, is set to make its debut in the UK with a new campaign titled “It’s Time.” Known as the world’s most well-known and widely sold raki brand, Yeni Raki 1937 offers expertly crafted grape spirits with a British twist, now available on Amazon. To celebrate its launch, Yeni Raki is introducing a range of signature cocktails and partnering with Hovarda for London’s Cocktails in the City event and afterparties featuring renowned DJs. Visitors can also win exciting prizes at the Yeni Raki stand and enjoy complimentary raki and mezze tastings.

Yeni Raki 1937 is an aniseed-flavoured grape alcohol with a rich history and a distinct liquorice taste. Unlike sambuca, it is expertly distilled from carefully selected grapes and raisins to produce suma, which is then redistilled with aniseed to create raki. Drinking raki is a symbol of sharing, connecting, love, and friendship, bringing people together in celebration or conversation.

The UK market can now experience the unique flavours of raki through Yeni Raki’s brand refresh and a lineup of raki-infused cocktails. As part of its launch campaign, Yeni Raki will collaborate with various hospitality brands across the summer, starting with Hovarda for London’s renowned Cocktails in the City event. From 6th to 8th July 2023, leading hospitality outlets and spirits brands will compete for the title of the best cocktail and bar at this prestigious event.

Yeni Raki’s three signature cocktails, including the “Raki Elixir” with pear and vanilla, the refreshing “Basil Sour Dem” with cucumber and basil, and the sweet and spicy “Chili Strawberry Infusion,” will be featured at the event. For those abstaining from alcohol, the equally delicious “Chili Strawberry Infusion Virgin” mocktail will be available. Guests can spin the ‘Spirit to Win It’ wheel for a chance to win exclusive prizes with each Yeni Raki signature cocktail enjoyed. They can also leave a review on the Blade app to receive a complimentary cocktail at Hovarda.

For those looking to explore the rich history of Yeni Raki, complimentary raki and mezze tastings will be offered hourly. These tastings will provide a culinary journey through Yeni Raki’s heritage, accompanied by perfect food pairings. Additionally, the afterparties at Hovarda will feature renowned DJs, including DJ Viton, DJ Derun, and Maia, ensuring a vibrant and enjoyable atmosphere.

Youth Hostel Association Puts 20 Hostels up for Sale, Leaving Community in Shock

The Youth Hostel Association (YHA) has unexpectedly put 20 youth hostels on the market, much to the surprise of the hostelling community. This news has caused concern among those who have fond memories of their first taste of independence and love for the countryside while staying at YHA hostels with friends, clubs, or schools.

For some, the sales represent opportunities for property renovation. However, others view this as a chance to purchase and operate a hostel, seeking an escape from the rat race.

Never before have so many hostels been listed for sale simultaneously. Alongside the 20 YHA hostels, 13 independent hostels are also on the market. Situated in some of the most picturesque locations in England and Wales, these properties offer individuals, couples, and families the prospect of a complete lifestyle change. They present an opportunity to break free from the monotony of a nine-to-five job, bid farewell to tedious commutes, and escape the stresses of urban life.

Running a hostel business is not suitable for everyone. A hostel owner must be a people person who enjoys challenges. Each day in the life of a hostel owner is unique, with opportunities to meet new and inspiring individuals.

Being a hostel owner brings many rewards, including being one’s own boss, infusing one’s personality, enthusiasm, and passion into the business, and witnessing its success.

Many of the properties for sale include managers’ quarters, while others provide the potential to create a wonderful rural home. It is a fantastic chance to work from a historic building in an idyllic corner of the country.

Prospective hostel owners can find ample support in the industry. The YHA operates a franchise scheme that welcomes former YHA hostels, and the Independent Hostel network, currently supporting over 320 hostel and bunkhouse businesses, is always ready to provide guidance to owners and welcomes new members.

Sam Dalley, director of Independent Hostels, is committed to ensuring that all the hostels currently on the market continue to operate successfully. She emphasises the vital role hostels play in the outdoor industry, offering flexible, self-catering accommodation for all ages. Hostel accommodation, with its shared facilities, is considered one of the most sustainable forms of tourism available.

May hostels continue to offer hospitality, camaraderie, and affordable self-catering accommodation to individuals, couples, families, groups of friends, schools, and clubs for years to come.
