We are pleased to announce that Suzanna Harvey, Partner and Head of Private Wealth, has been named in the 2026 eprivateclient Most Influential list. The annual list recognises leading private client practitioners across the UK and internationally, spotlighting individuals who have demonstrated exceptional professional achievements, technical expertise and strong reputations within the private wealth sector.
However, unlike previous years, the list is not limited to just fifty individuals, reflecting the growth and importance of the private client advisory sector in guiding HNW and UHNW individuals and their families through multi-generational wealth cycles. This expansion of the list also demonstrates the breadth of skilled and professional advice available to clients across the world from UK and offshore private client professionals and therefore bolsters the significance of this listing even further.
Candidates were selected following extensive research by PAM Insight judges, the publisher behind eprivateclient, with the judging panel considering professional track record, the scope of work undertaken, client feedback and peer recommendations.
As head of the firm’s expanding Private Wealth practice, Suzanna advises a diverse range of UK and international clients, including high net worth individuals and families, entrepreneurs, private banks, financial institutions and trust companies. She also plays a key role in the firm’s Personal Immigration team, supporting clients relocating to the UK with their immigration options. Her practice encompasses advice on a wide spectrum of UK tax matters, including income tax, capital gains tax and inheritance tax, for both UK resident and non-resident clients.
“I’m delighted to be included in this year’s list. It’s a reflection of the brilliant work our team delivers every day and the collaborative culture we’ve fostered across the practice. I feel very fortunate to work alongside colleagues whose expertise and commitment make such a difference to our clients.”
