In Australian wealth management, as expected, cashflows reflect the high level of discretionary super contributions brought forward into Q2 17, ahead of 1 July 2017 changes to non-concessional caps.
AMP’s award-winning North platform continues to perform strongly, with cashflows increasing during the quarter.
AMP Capital has had a strong third quarter, increasing external net cashflows as well as putting investors’ money to work in its core infrastructure and real estate portfolio, including securing a record US$4.1 billion in commitments for its infrastructure debt strategy.
In Australian wealth protection, experience has been tracking in line with expectations, delivering another stable quarter for the business. Our second program of reinsurance agreements will take effect from 1 November 2017 adding further stability to earnings.
