Osborne And Wells Associates Confirm Rugby Sponsorship Deal

Online, February 14, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Osborne and Wells Associates, the London based commodities brokerage firm has released information in regards to a UK rugby team sponsorship deal at the company's most recent shareholders meeting held at London's Radisson Edwardian Hotel in Kensington on Monday evening.

During the company's first shareholders meeting of 2012, Mr. Ian Bloomsbury (Osborne and Wells Public Relations Director) finally confirmed that a sponsorship deal had been struck with a UK rugby team. However Mr. Bloomsbury stated that, at present, the name of the team and the specific details of the sponsorship will remain behind closed doors until all aspects of the deal are firmly wrapped up.

Mr. Bloomsbury said. "After the success FX PRO has had with their sponsorship deal with Fulham football club, we knew that it would be a big stepping stone to do something similar in line with our business strategy. We have long been known as a boutique commodity advisory firm with an exclusive client base, predominantly made up of institutional clients and hedge funds. Whilst we continue to develop our relationships with these clients, we believe that it is the right time for us to move into the market for retail investors. Securing a sponsorship deal with a major UK rugby team is a big step in the right direction and in line with our core business strategy for 2012."

Mr. Kenneth Holby, head of corporate strategy also added that the sponsorship deal is just one of many upcoming projects to expand Osborne and Wells Associates exposure in the retail end of the futures and options market.

Mr. Holby said "our primary aim for 2012 is to take our company into the private investor end of the market. Over the years we have done exceptionally well in regards to our institutional clients and our cooperative success with them, however we strongly believe that this is the perfect time to put our market expertise in action and direct it towards the private investor. We know it's a tough market to get into but we firmly believe that with our reputation amongst the institutional sector combined with the outstanding team of individual specialists that make up our company, we have a great opportunity to make this venture a capital success."

Mr. Holby later added that details of additional major projects and developments in regards to expanding the company's attention to the retail market will be released throughout the course of 2012.
