What our clients say
“Falanx worked with Turner Pope who led the £4.6m fundraising for our major acquisition in March 2018. They did this effectively and speedily. They have a good network of relationships and have introduced some quality investors. They have a can-do attitude and work closely with the company and kept us fully informed at all times with the process, and when it came to final documentation they were well organised and matters were concluded swiftly.”
Ian Selby, CFO
“We were impressed with the way the team engaged with us in our Placing last year. Having previously expressed that their clients would have meaningful interest in Avacta’s shares, they delivered on the fundraise and our experience of working with them was excellent. I was very happy to appoint Turner Pope as joint broker.”
Alastair Smith, CEO
“The team at TPI got it from the start that the Deltex technology changes patients’ lives for the better. With this shared passion, they pulled out all the stops to help us raise funds for our placing last year achieving an impressive result.Their continued insight into the retail investor market has been invaluable to us subsequently.”
Jonathan Shaw,
Group Finance Director
“Turner Pope stepped in to assist the company in extraordinary circumstances and delivered a capital raising in very difficult market conditions, largely thanks to their internal placing capacity. Although a relatively new relationship, we have enjoyed dealing with the TPI team, with whom we can have pertinent, timely conversations and they have made sure they are available whenever we have sought their counsel.”

Our relationship further developed in September 2018 when Turner Pope facilitated our £2.2m fundraise, this was executed in a seemless and professional manner. We have built an excellent relationship with Ben and James and look forward to further developing this during 2019.”
