AuM Update

Summary by AI BETAClose X

Polar Capital Holdings plc reported a significant increase in Assets under Management (AuM) to £45.0 billion as of 30 June 2026, up 47% from £30.6 billion at the end of March 2026. This growth was driven by net inflows of £2.5 billion and a substantial £11.9 billion increase from fund performance and market movements, particularly in Technology, Artificial Intelligence, and Smart Energy strategies. While Technology and AI funds saw strong client demand, outflows were noted from Emerging Markets Stars and Global Insurance. The company views the current market environment as supportive for specialist active management, aiming to convert client demand into durable net flows.

Iain Evans, Chief Executive, commented:

 

"Momentum has continued since the 19 June AuM update included in our Annual Results announcement, with Group AuM of £45.0bn as at 30 June 2026, up 47% from £30.6bn at 31 March 2026. This reflected net inflows of £2.5bn and positive market movements and investment performance of £11.9bn over the quarter. Strong absolute and relative performance from our Technology, Artificial Intelligence and Smart Energy strategies was a key contributor, supported by high-conviction thematic positioning.

 

"Client demand was led by our Technology and AI funds, with positive contributions from Healthcare, Smart Energy, Global Absolute Return and Japan Value. Net outflows were primarily from Emerging Markets Stars and Global Insurance, with redemptions remaining largely client specific.

 

"We continue to see a supportive environment for specialist active management, as markets broaden and elevated stock-level dispersion strengthens the case for high-conviction, differentiated strategies.

 

"This progress provides a strong start to the new financial year. With significant fund capacity across our diverse range of specialist active strategies, we remain focused on converting client demand into durable net flows and delivering long-term value for clients and shareholders."
