Alliance Trust hits £5bn assets mark ASSETS under administration at Alliance Trust Savings have broken through the £5 billion barrier, the Dundee-based firm announced yesterday. Nearly £1bn of savings have been added over the past year from existing customers and clients joining via independent financial advisers. Patrick Mill, managing director at Alliance Trust Savings, said: "Hitting £5bn of assets under administration is a particularly satisfying milestone, although we regard it as merely a stepping stone to greater things as our business model - and the industry - develops."
