June 2016 Year: Highlights

  • Full year Jun-16 net flows were -$1.4B. Outflows concentrated in one institutional termination and one client rebalancing their portfolio. Excluding these outflows and the PAIL IPO (+$0.3b), net flows were otherwise flat year-on-year.

  • New Listed Investment Company, PAI, debuted in September.

  • New Irish UCITS fund range, Platinum World Portfolios, was seeded in November - FuM US$25m over three funds (World, Asia, Japan).

  • Average FuM and Fee Revenues were down 1% for the year, with a strong first half being offset by subsequent China volatility and Brexit.

  • Profit After Tax of $200.9m was down 6% on Jun-15 due to lower FX gains, higher staff costs and increased business development spend. Margin remains attractive at 82%.

  • Final dividend of 16 cps.

Investment Performance

(to 30 Jun 2016)

Long-term performance remains compelling. Our contrarian approach has detracted from the short-term performance of the 3 largest flagship funds during recent market volatility.

Investment Performance. Bull and bear market view

PIF’s long term performance has remained strong through various bull and bear markets.

Performance during the most recent bull market has been generally in line with the market. This outcome is strikingly similar to the performance prior to the tech wreck and, to a lesser extent, pre-GFC.

Outlook

  1. Small teams improved orientation; specialist approach generating large idea base.

  2. Competitive debasement of currencies – reduces attraction of holding cash.

  3. Currency volatility but greater awareness of foreign equity markets.

  4. Remain index agnostic in a world of shifting goal posts.
