The deal is expected to close in October.

Tim Hoare, CEO of Canaccord Adams, said: ‘The acquisition of Intelli provides our exceptional investment trust, sales and trading team with the primary product as well as a solid platform for our expansion strategy in Scotland.’

Canaccord Capital reported revenue of C$107 million (£61 million) in the first quarter of 2009, a reduction of 25 per cent from the previous year.
