Well-respected wealth management company Prydis has moved from Exeter City Centre to the beautiful grounds of Winslade Park at Clyst St. Mary. The newly built offices at Clyst House with an impressive footprint of 6,200 square feet set in stunning grounds, are now home to 60 staff members from the Wealth and Accounts teams. In addition, the company also has offices in Newquay, Liskeard, and Edinburgh. Its total turnover of all subsidiaries and connect companies is just under £12m.
Prydis has two lines of business: Business Services (Accounts, Audit, Tax and Business Advisory) and Wealth Management Services (investment, Pension, Retirement, Mortgage & Protection Advice). Prydis Wealth has a subsidiary called P1 Investment Services which operates separately from Prydis and provides an investment platform and investment management services to financial advice firms across the UK.
James Priday is Managing Director of Prydis Wealth and CEO of PI Investment Services. He founded P1 Investment Services Limited in 2016 and has been the CEO since the beginning and Managing Director of Prydis Wealth since 2012.

To mark the exciting new era for the business, Prydis hosted an official launch event for clients, agents, colleagues, and peers to honour the company’s move to the prestigious Clyst House. Guests joined the team for drinks, canapes, and a full tour of the facilities, including a dedicated break-out area, coffee bar, and pool table where staff can relax and chill with their colleagues.
Managing Director James Priday comments: “We are immensely proud to have developed a strong reputation in the industry and couldn’t have achieved this without the ongoing support of our amazing team. It felt important, therefore, to celebrate this milestone for the Exeter office by holding an event to showcase our fabulous new offices to our clients and supporters.”
