Gavin Rochussen, Chief Executive, commented:
" There has been continued demand and inflows into the European Income ex-UK, Biotechnology, Global Convertible, Global Absolute Return, Smart Energy and Emerging Market Stars funds, with combined net inflows of GBP320m across these funds in the quarter.
"Notwithstanding turbulence in the banking sector in March and the resultant impact to equity valuations, total AuM in the quarter increased by GBP749m from GBP18,471m to GBP19,220m, a 4% increase.
"Net outflows in the quarter were GBP410m and were driven by outflows of GBP373m from our Global Insurance fund following a year of exceptional outperformance in relative and absolute terms with clients reducing their holdings to take profits.
"During the quarter, the rate of outflows from the open-ended Technology funds continued to decline, with GBP40m of outflows in March and GBP199m of net outflows in the quarter compared to GBP217m in the previous quarter and GBP380m in the first quarter of this financial year. This follows exceptional outperformance and net inflows in 2020 and the first half of 2021.
"Stubbornly high inflation, rising interest rates and slowing economic growth added to the list of concerns weighing on market sentiment during the financial year to March 2023. A combination of net outflows, fund closures and market performance meant that our AuM at the end of the twelve-month period were GBP19.2bn compared to GBP22.1bn at the end of March 2022.
"It was pleasing to see that Polar Capital scored well in the annual Broadridge Fund Brand 50 survey of investment professionals. Within the UK, we were the 7(th) highest rank brand, up from 8(th) the prior year, the smallest group in the top ten based on AuM and in the company of many much larger peers. Our approach has always been to deliver a specialist investment offering with a premium service to our clients and therefore, it was also pleasing to see Polar retain its number one ranking for Thematic Equity in the UK and scoring 2(nd) for client-oriented thinking (Source: Broadridge Fund Brand 50 2023).
" We remain confident that with our diverse range of differentiated, active specialist fund strategies we are well-positioned to perform for our clients and shareholders over the long term ."
Polar Capital aims to announce its results for the financial year to 31 March 2023 on 26 June 2023.
