Acquisitions

The firm was originally called Berry Birch & Noble, an old insurance broking firm that had got into trading difficulties, but changed name to Berkeley Berry Birch plc following a reverse takeover in 2002 by Clifford Lockyer's Berkeley Group, a privately held firm of independent financial advisers (IFAs) in Coventry. Lockyer wished to float his firm on the stock market and the reverse takeover of the ailing Berry Birch & Noble enabled him to do so more easily and cheaply than through a traditional flotation.
