Söderberg & Partners Wealth Management allows you to link up to 10 entities, using client groups.
By combining the assets of the group, clients can benefit from lower platform and/or adviser fees than if they were charged on an individual basis.
For more information on the parameters of family linking, please see here; Can I set up family linking? And what are the parameters?

When you have added all of the relevant client records, select Review:
Check the details, and if you are happy they are correct, select submit and this client group will be active:
