Key highlights of the quarter

  • Allfunds´ assets under administration ("AuA") were up 5% or almost €64bn since 30 June 2021, from €1,348 billion to €1,412 billion. This was a result of continued strong growth across both the Allfunds traditional and the BNPP Other portfolios
  • The Allfunds traditional(2) AuA increased by 4% (15.2% annualised growth) since June 2021 as a result of strong organic net flows and positive market performance
  • − Net flows (excluding market performance) in the quarter of €32.7bn or 3.7% over beginning of period (BoP) AuA(3)
    • Flows from existing clients grew by €20bn, representing annualised growth of 9.0%
    • Flows from new clients added €13bn, representing annualised growth of 5.8%
  • − Market performance only grew by €0.7bn in the quarter, impacted by the performance mainly in equity capital markets in the last part of the quarter
  • − On a year-to-date basis, net flows coming from the Allfunds traditional AuA amounted to €118bn or 15.8% over BoP AuA (vs 4.5% in the same period in 2020)
  • BNPP Other portfolio flows(4) (including market performance) stood at c.€31bn in the quarter, representing a 6.6% over BoP AuA (26.2% annualised)

Allfunds continues attracting clients to the platform:

  • New Distributors onboarded: 64 new Distributors year-to-date vs 51 over the same period in 2020. Onboarding coming mainly from UK, Middle-East and Latin America in the quarter, showing our capacity of continuously growing continuously in existing markets
  • 140 new Fund Houses on the platform year-to-date vs 100 over the same period in 2020. Significant growth in the French (38) and Nordic (12) regions reinforcing our competitive position in those markets and enabling future distributors' incorporation

Juan Alcaraz, Chief Executive Officer, commented:

"While the reduced market performance in Q3 has led to some slowdown of our activity in this quarter, Allfunds has had a strong performance in terms of growth, and we have continued with a positive trend in our organic growth levers: strong flows from existing clients and good pace on new client migrations across all our markets.

As of September, we have seen net flows on Allfunds traditional AuA representing a 21%, on an annualised basis, over BoP AuA(5) , continuing with a record performance not seen in the last 4 years.

We continue progressing with our key strategic initiatives and building up our scalability, reaching over €1.4 trillion AuA and a stronger market position."
