Scheduled Trading Update -------------------------
Close Brothers Group plc ("the group" or "Close Brothers") today issues its trading update relating to the third quarter from 1 February 2017 to 30 April 2017 ("the quarter"). All statements in this release relate to that period unless otherwise indicated.
Performance overview
The group continued to perform well in the quarter, with strong profitability across all three divisions.
The Banking division achieved solid loan book growth with continued strong returns, as we continue to apply our disciplined approach to lending in a competitive environment. Overall, the loan book increased 2.3% in the quarter and is up 4.1% year to date at GBP6.7 billion (31 January 2017: GBP6.5 billion). The net interest margin and bad debt ratio both remained broadly stable on the first half.
Performance was particularly good in Property Finance, with good loan book growth and strong profitability. Retail Finance and Commercial Finance delivered more modest growth, as we continue to focus on maintaining margins and prudent underwriting, which support our long track record of sustainable lending through the cycle.
Winterflood's performance improved further in the quarter, benefiting from continued high retail trading activity. However, the business remains sensitive to any changes in market conditions.
Asset Management benefited from strong net inflows as well as positive market movements. As a result, managed assets increased 7% in the quarter to GBP8.5 billion at 30 April 2017 (31 January 2017: GBP7.9 billion) and total client assets grew 5% to GBP10.7 billion (31 January 2017: GBP10.2 billion).
Outlook
Following our performance in the third quarter, we remain confident in delivering a good result for the full year.
