About Us
Bell Lawrie is one of the leading independent private client investment
managers and stockbrokers in Scotland. We aim to maintain
a discreet and personal service, and provide for all the investment needs of our
clients who are based throughout the UK and overseas. As part of the Brewin Dolphin
Group, we have the backing of one of the UK 's premier investment houses.
Bell Lawrie can trace its origins to the mid 19th Century as a founder firm of the
Scottish Stock Exchange.
A number of mergers have helped bring about Bell Lawrie’s current position, not
least in 1990 the merger of Bell Lawrie Limited and Robert White and Co. In 1993
the company was then merged into the Brewin Dolphin group and in 1998 Wise Speke
became part of the group, as did Hill Osborne in 2000 and Popes in 2002. As a result the group now manages total clients’ funds of approximately over £18 billion from 39 offices throughout the UK and Channel Islands.
