Mike O'Shea, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"Premier has continued to make solid progress with positive net inflows, despite a more difficult market environment in recent months, and good relative investment performance after all fund charges. The quality of our performance and investment teams has been recognised by more awards over the period, including Best Multi-Asset Group of the Year at the Professional Adviser Awards 2018".
"Our focus continues to be on our existing investment products, including our twelve multi-asset funds, our equity funds and absolute return funds, but we have also continued to develop our product range and announced changes to our client service model for advisers during the period.
"In October 2017 we relaunched the Premier Optimum Income Fund with a new target yield of 7% p.a. and a new co-fund management team following the expansion of our equity team with specialist covered call options capabilities.
"In March 2018, we announced the launch of PremierConnect, a new digital portal designed to assist financial advisers investing directly in Premier's funds on behalf of their clients. The new portal, which is planned to go live later in 2018, is designed to give advisers access to a range of features, including on-line transactions, client specific portfolio reporting, facilitating the payment of adviser charges and client illustrations, as well as real-time integration with a range of advisers' own back office solutions for greater adviser business efficiency. There will be no additional costs for advisers or their clients to use PremierConnect.
"Looking ahead, it seems likely that although interest rates will head higher as the global economy improves, they will remain lower overall than in previous economic cycles. With equity markets now looking through the current economic upturn to what lies beyond, it is likely that market volatility will be higher than in recent years and political uncertainty will continue to have an impact. In this environment, we believe there will be good opportunities for actively managed funds to produce attractive long term investment outcomes for investors. We are confident that our investment teams are well placed to navigate these challenges for our clients."
