ANNOUNCES AN UPDATE ON RECENT MATTERS AND A SERIES OF FIXED INCOME MEETINGS
Recent Matters
Quilter plc is in the process of preparing its year-end financial statements. Based on preliminary (unaudited) figures, the Group expects to report full year assets under management and under administration broadly similar to the Q3 2022 position of £96.9 billion (31 December 2021: £111.8 billion), the decrease during the year is due to positive net flows offset by adverse market movements.
Retention rates remain stable and gross flows for the final quarter remain resilient while reflecting the normal seasonality of the business. Therefore, overall, Q4 2022 net flows are expected to be modestly lower than Q3 2022 but remain positive.
All figures in the paragraphs above are expressed on a continuing basis (that is, excluding the divested business of Quilter International Holdings Limited, Quilter International Ireland DAC and their subsidiaries, the sale of which completed on 30 November 2021). References to the Group are to Quilter plc and its subsidiaries.
