JONATHAN SORRELL, GROUP CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF RATHBONES, SAID:

 

"We are focused on serving our clients exceptionally well and driving organic
growth. I have spent my first months with our people and clients. We have all
the ingredients to provide the best offering in the market: great people,
trusted client relationships, and the scale to invest in our future.

 

Our teams have done tremendous work integrating the business over the past two
years, and that foundation matters. Though the UK economy remains challenging,
with much uncertainty ahead of the Budget, our attention is directed at
returning to positive net flows. The opportunity ahead is significant and we
are committed to capturing it through sustained effort and consistency of
purpose."

1. The IW&I asset migration column/row does not net to zero following the
change in classification of certain previously reported FUMA to ensure
alignment of approach. There is no impact on revenue.

2. Transfers represent client FUMA which has transferred from one service to
another and other intra-group movements. These are excluded from net inflows.

3. Annualised net growth calculated as net flows/opening FUMA.

4. Net inflows into multi-asset funds include direct flows and flows into
managed solutions delivered using in-house funds.

5. Group eliminations represent RAM funds that are held within portfolios
managed by RIM (£6.5 billion)  teams. Consequently, after excluding the RAM
funds, the FUMA  is £96.7 billion in RIM.
