Fortune’s Term Sheet newsletter says the pan-European private equity firm has committed the money through a strategic minority investment in the wealth manager; completion requires regulatory approvals. Aspirity focuses on growth buyouts and strategic minority investments in financial technology and services, and enterprise technology and connectivity services.
Aspirity Partners has committed $135 million to Hoxton Wealth through a strategic minority investment, Fortune’s Term Sheet newsletter says. Aspirity says completion is subject to customary regulatory approvals.
Aspirity describes the deal as Hoxton’s first external investment since its founding in 2018. The private equity firm says the capital will support international expansion, recruitment of wealth advisers and selective acquisitions.
Hoxton, which has headquarters in London and Dubai, uses technology alongside financial advisers to serve clients with cross-border needs. Aspirity says Hoxton advises approximately 10,000 clients across ten jurisdictions and manages more than $5 billion in assets.
In its 3 November 2026 announcement, Aspirity said the relationship began with bilateral engagement and had developed over almost a year. Hoxton founder and chief executive Chris Ball said he chose Aspirity for its knowledge of the market and its views on how it could support Hoxton’s plans.
Aspirity founder and managing partner Joseph O’Mara said Hoxton fit its strategy as a founder-led business benefiting from long-term trends, with attractive financial characteristics. Ball said access to Aspirity’s network of experienced founders and executives would benefit Hoxton’s team and clients.
A company press release says Ball will retain a majority shareholding following the transaction. The deal awaits regulatory approvals.
