Quilter plc
Fourth Quarter 2025 Trading Statement: Record quarter despite budget
uncertainty
Quilter reports record quarterly core net inflows of £2.4 billion. Q4 core
net inflows increased 21% on the prior year period and represented 7%
(annualised) of opening AuMA.
Full year 2025 core net inflows of £9.1 billion, 75% ahead of 2024 (£5.2
billion), and represented 8% of opening AuMA (2024: 5%).
Quilter plc highlights:
Group Assets under Management and Administration ("AuMA"): £141.2 billion at
31 December 2025, increased by 5% from 30 September 2025 reflecting reported
net inflows of £2.3 billion and market movements of £4.1 billion. Group AuMA
increased by 18% over the year.
Fourth quarter flows:
· Across the financial service sector, speculation on the UK Budget
in November 2025 contributed to elevated client activity which impacted both
gross inflows and outflows. Against this backdrop, Quilter achieved record
core net inflows of £2.4 billion, an increase of 21% on the equivalent prior
year period.
· In the Affluent segment, the strength of the Quilter Platform
proposition continues to be demonstrated by strong business volumes:
o Quarterly net inflows of £2,410 million represented 10% (annualised) of
opening AuMA versus £1,919 million in the comparable period (9% (annualised)
of opening AuMA).
o Quilter channel gross and net inflows onto the Platform increased 22% and
18% respectively year-on-year. Quilter channel net inflows for FY 2025
increased 12% year-on-year.
o IFA channel gross inflows onto the Platform increased 31% year-on-year.
IFA channel net inflows of £1,623 million were 29% higher than the comparable
period (Q4 2024: £1,255 million). IFA channel net inflows for FY 2025
increased 92% year-on-year.
· In the High Net Worth segment:
o Quarterly gross inflows of £678 million were broadly consistent with
prior quarters throughout the year with total gross inflows of £2,969 million
for FY 2025.
o The fourth quarter net outflow of £17 million largely reflected client
activity ahead of the UK Budget at the end of November. Outflows returned to
lower levels in December with the segment delivering positive net inflows in
that month. Net inflows for FY 2025 of £686 million represented 2% of opening
AuMA and increased 15% year-on-year.
· Core business persistency levels improved over the year by c.1
percentage point.
· Productivity: Quilter channel annualised gross sales per Quilter
Adviser were £3.7 million in the fourth quarter, around 12% higher
year-on-year.
· Financial Results for the year ended 31 December 2025 will be
announced on 4 March 2026.

Steven Levin, Chief Executive Officer of Quilter plc, commented:
"We finished the year with strong momentum. The fourth quarter was our
strongest quarter of the year, despite market uncertainty caused by
speculation on potential tax changes ahead of the UK Budget at the end of
November.
"Our core business delivered record full year net inflows of £9.1 billion in
2025 with quarterly inflows consistently above £2 billion. This reflects the
strength of our award-winning Platform where assets finished the year at £105
billion, making us the first discrete UK advised platform to surpass £100
billion of assets under administration. With our Platform flows achieving 10%
of opening AuMA in the final quarter, we are distinctly positioned as both the
largest and fastest growing mainstream UK advised platform.
"Our High Net Worth segment continued to deliver solid levels of new business
in the fourth quarter. Client portfolio repositioning ahead of the November UK
Budget led to temporary higher outflows in October and November. Following the
UK Budget, outflows returned to lower levels and the business achieved
positive net inflows in December. For 2025 overall, the High Net Worth segment
delivered net inflows of £686 million, representing 2% of opening assets.
"Our performance in 2025 demonstrates the strength of our two distribution
channels. Our scale, distribution reach and compelling propositions make us
uniquely positioned to meet our customers' needs and to benefit from the
secular growth opportunity that the UK Wealth market offers."
