Trading Update
Liontrust Asset Management Plc ("Liontrust" or the "Company"), the specialist
independent fund management group, today issues its trading update for the
three months ended 30 June 2025 (the "Period").
· Net outflows of £1.1 billion in the Period (2024: £0.9 billion).
· Assets under management and advice ("AuMA") were £22.6 billion as at
30 June 2025, unchanged over the Period.
· AuMA as at 7 July 2025 were £22.6 billion.
Commenting, John Ions, Chief Executive Officer, said:
"Liontrust has spoken for the last nine months about how investors will need
to search wider for alpha going forward and why this means a more positive
environment for active management. We have now begun to see investors, led by
institutional clients, turn more towards actively managed funds and diversify
geographically, with Europe and the UK outperforming the US stock market over
the first half of 2025(1).
This comes as Liontrust has delivered stronger long-term performance. As at 30
June 2025, 73% of Liontrust funds were in the first or second quartile of
their respective sectors since inception(1).
Liontrust continues to make progress towards our four strategic objectives,
including broadening distribution institutionally and internationally and
expanding the fund range."
