Andrea Rossi, Group Chief Executive Officer, said:
"After a strong first half, we have maintained positive momentum, continuing to deliver against our growth priorities.
"Group AUMA increased 3% in the quarter to £365 billion, supported by £1.8 billion of net inflows from open business across Asset Management and Life, reflecting the strength of our business model and investment capabilities.
"Our Asset Management performance was particularly pleasing as we delivered £1.5 billion of net inflows from external clients, with good client demand across asset classes and geographies.
"Despite a volatile macroeconomic environment, we are seeing growing momentum across M&G, as we continue to execute on our strategy and deliver strong long-term value to both clients and shareholders."
Asset Management key highlights:
· Asset Management AUMA of £335 billion, including £176 billion from external clients, up 3% in the quarter and 6% year-to-date (YTD).
· Continued strong net inflows from external clients of £1.5 billion in Q3, bringing the YTD total to £4.1 billion which corresponds to an annualised rate of over 3% of opening external assets.
· Both Institutional and Wholesale franchises in net inflows, delivering £0.8 billion and £0.7 billion respectively in Q3, and £2.7 billion and £1.4 billion YTD.
· Continued client demand across geographies and asset classes, particularly in European public equities, as well as in private and structured credit.
· Momentum expected to continue in coming months, as we begin to generate new business flows through our partnership with Dai-ichi Life.
Life key highlights:
· Life AUMA of £188 billion up 2% over the period and 1.5% YTD.
· PruFund, now a £68 billion franchise, delivered net flows of £0.2 billion in Q3 compared to £(0.6) billion in H1 2025. We remain focused on further broadening client and advisor access and product range.
· New business volumes of £0.3 billion in Bulk Purchase Annuities (BPA) improved compared to £0.2 billion in the first half. We expect to maintain a good level of volumes in the final quarter of the year.
· Progressing well towards launching our With-Profits BPA, which remains on track for Q1 2026.

Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about M&G's beliefs and expectations and including, without limitation, statements containing the words 'may', 'will', 'could', 'should', 'continue', 'aims', 'estimates', 'projects', 'believes', 'intends', 'expects', 'plans', 'seeks', 'outlook' and 'anticipates', and words of similar meaning, are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on plans, estimates and projections which are current as at the time they are made, and therefore persons reading this announcement are cautioned against placing undue reliance on forward-looking statements. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve inherent assumptions, risk and uncertainty, as they generally relate to future events and circumstances that may not be entirely within M&G's control. A number of factors could cause M&G's actual future financial condition or performance or other indicated results to differ materially from those indicated in any forward-looking statement. Such factors include, but are not limited to: changes in domestic and global political, economic and business conditions; market-related conditions and risk, including fluctuations in interest rates and exchange rates, the potential for a sustained low-interest rate environment, corporate liquidity risk and the future trading value of the shares of M&G; investment portfolio-related risks, such as the performance of financial markets generally; legal, regulatory and policy developments, such as, for example, new government initiatives and regulatory measures, including those addressing climate change and broader sustainability-related issues, and broader development of reporting standards; the impact of competition, economic uncertainty, inflation and deflation; the effect on M&G's business and results from, in particular, mortality and morbidity trends, longevity assumptions, lapse rates and policy renewal rates; the timing, impact and other uncertainties of future acquisitions or combinations within relevant industries; the impact of internal projects and other strategic actions, such as transformation programmes, failing to meet their objectives; changes in environmental, social and geopolitical risks and incidents, pandemics and similar events beyond the Group's control; the Group's ability along with governments and other stakeholders to measure, manage and mitigate the impacts of climate change and broader sustainability-related issues effectively; the impact of operational risks, including risk associated with third-party arrangements, reliance on third-party distribution channels and disruption to the availability, confidentiality or integrity of M&G's IT systems (or those of its suppliers); the impact of changes in capital, solvency standards, accounting standards or relevant regulatory frameworks, and tax and other legislation and regulations in the jurisdictions in which the Group operates; and the impact of legal and regulatory actions, investigations and disputes. These and other important factors may, for example, result in changes to assumptions used for determining results of operations or re-estimations of reserves for future policy benefits.
