Andrew Croft, Chief Executive Officer, commented:

" I am pleased to announce another good quarter for St. James's Place, with our advisers attracting GBP4.17 billion of new client investments to the business. While lower versus a very strong first quarter outturn in 2022, these gross inflows represent growth against the final quarter of last year. Retention has remained strong, supporting a further GBP2.00 billion of net inflows and contributing to funds under management closing the period at GBP153.62 billion . This outcome for both gross and net flows is testament to the scale of ongoing demand for trusted face-to-face advice, the long-term nature of our client proposition and the strength of adviser-client relationships in all environments.

We have begun 2023 much as we expected, so if macroeconomic indicators and consumer sentiment show further signs of recovery, we continue to anticipate a more supportive environment for new business as 2023 unfolds."

The details of the announcement are attached.
