Press Release
11 April 2019
TRADING STATEMENT for the quarter ended 31 March 2019
Key points
-- Funds under management (FUM) of $112.3 billion at 31 March 2019 (31 December 2018: $108.5 billion)
o Positive investment movement of $4.5 billion in the quarter
o Net outflows of $0.7 billion in the quarter
-- Completed around $65 million of the $100 million share repurchase programme announced in October 2018 equating to around 36 million shares at an average price of 140 pence per share
-- Proposed change to corporate structure remains on track with necessary approvals now received from regulators and approvals from shareholders to be sought in May 2019
Luke Ellis, Chief Executive Officer of Man Group, said:
"We are pleased to report a $3.8 billion increase in our funds under management in the first quarter to $112.3 billion, driven by strong investment performance from our quant alternative strategies and positive market movements. The investment performance more than offset the previously indicated outflows in the quarter, which were concentrated in discretionary long only, including European retail investors reducing exposure to Japan and institutional clients reducing exposure to global equities. While we expect clients to continue adjusting their portfolio allocations during the second quarter, we see ongoing engagement with clients on new mandates and, in particular, continuing strong demand for our total return strategies."
FIRST QUARTER FUM COMMENTARY
In the three months to 31 March 2019, FUM increased 4% to $112.3 billion driven by positive investment movement of $4.5 billion partially offset by net outflows of $0.7 billion comprising sales of $7.9 billion and redemptions of $8.6 billion.

ALTERNATIVE
Absolute return
Absolute return FUM decreased by $0.2 billion in the quarter. There were net outflows of $0.7 billion, driven by redemptions from Man GLG's long short strategies. This was partially offset by net inflows into AHL Institutional Solutions. Positive investment movement of $0.5 billion was primarily driven from positive performance at Man AHL (Evolution +5.9%, Dimension +2.2%, Alpha +1.2% and Diversified +1.1%). As we have previously indicated the management fee margin in this category continues to decline due to the ongoing mix shift towards institutional assets which are at a lower margin. As at 31 March 2019, 68% of Man AHL performance fee eligible FUM was at high watermark and 11% was within 5% of high watermark. As at 31 March 2019, 28% of Man GLG performance fee eligible FUM was at high watermark and 37% was within 5% of high watermark.
Total return
Total return FUM increased by 11% during the quarter. Net inflows of $2.2 billion were seen across strategies, with diversified risk premia being the largest contributor. The investment movement of $0.2 billion was driven by positive performance in the diversified risk premia strategy.
Multi-manager solutions
Multi-manager solutions FUM decreased to $13.4 billion during the quarter. Net outflows of $0.1 billion comprised redemptions from segregated portfolios, which were broadly offset by subscriptions into infrastructure mandates. Investment performance contributed positive $0.2 billion and other movements of negative $0.2 billion were driven by leverage changes. The management fee margin in this category continues to decline due to the continued mix shift towards managed account mandates and the decline in legacy fund of fund assets.
LONG ONLY
Systematic
Systematic long only FUM increased by 9% in the quarter. Net outflows of $0.3 billion were primarily driven by redemptions from global core and european core strategies. This was partially offset by subscriptions into Man Numeric's global low volatility strategy. There was positive investment performance across all of Man Numeric's long only strategies, which added $2.4 billion to FUM.
Discretionary
Discretionary long only FUM decreased by $0.5 billion in the quarter. The net outflows of $1.8 billion were from Global, Japanese and US equity strategies. The positive investment movement of $1.2 billion was driven by Man GLG's equity strategies, particularly Japanese and European strategies. FX gains of $0.1 billion were due to the dollar weakening against Sterling.

from 1 October 2012 to 30 September 2013. The representative product
was changed at the end of September 2012 due to the provisioning

is available at each calendar month end, using estimates where a
final price is unavailable. Where a price, either estimate or final
is unavailable on a calendar month end, the price on the closest
date prior to the calendar month end has been used. Both of the track

have been calculated using the best quality price that is available
at each calendar month end, using estimates where a final price is
