Gold Seal rebrands as 'The Fold'
Financial services legal consultants Gold Seal Legal and Gold Seal Risk Management Services are rebranding as The Fold.
The firm, which offers legal, compliance and risk management and training services to financial services firms, chose The Fold because "it's welcoming and inclusive and supports our conviction that our clients are at the heart of everything we do".
Everything else about the business including its services and approach remains the same. The name change is effective from 22 August with the new website, www.thefoldlegal.com.au, expected to be live in late September.
