Tweed Wealth Management has launched a sports division. This will be jointly led by Jason Baggott, a former professional rugby player and now chartered financial planner, alongside Ross Penman, a financial advisor with more than 21 years of experience. “As a former athlete, I understand the financial challenges and opportunities that come with a career in sports,“ said Baggott. “Our goal is to help athletes make informed financial decisions that will secure their future both during and after their playing career. “We are building a strong client base both locally and internationally, spanning various sports including rugby, football and boxing. “For many sportspeople, financial planning can seem a bit overwhelming, and we want to simplify the process so that they can focus on what they do well – excel in their sporting field.” Penman, who joined Tweed in 2024, specialises in advising sports and media professionals, as well as clients dealing with personal injury and clinical negligence cases. “We understand the unique pressures athletes face, from injury risks to early peak earnings,“ explained Penman. “Our team, which includes many former athletes, is dedicated to helping sports professionals build solid financial strategies, avoid costly errors and secure their financial futures.” Don't miss the latest headlines with our twice-daily newsletter - sign up here for free.
