Why we think this is bad

While the company's investment performance was positive, the RNS highlights several challenges facing the business, including increased market volatility, trade tensions, and a risk-off response from some investors. These factors suggest a negative sentiment towards the company's near-term outlook.

  • Net outflows of $3.9 billion outweighed positive investment performance of $1.3 billion
  • Challenging market conditions, including increased volatility and trade tensions, impacted the business
