Praemium CEO Michael Ohanessian said, “We have continued last financial year’s strong platform growth momentum into this financial year with our second best quarter for asset inflows. We continue to see strong interest in SMA technology from the Australian advice sector and for Praemium’s market leading solution in particular. Internationally, the successful launch of our Smartfund 80% Protected fund, targeted at the retirement market, is an exciting development that has significant upside potential.

“The pipeline of new business is very encouraging as more and more advice firms turn to SMA technology to deliver superior investor returns, tax effectiveness and business efficiencies. Equally importantly, our new clients are ramping up their adoption of the platform and will continue to drive growth in assets.

“Additionally, our strong financial position enables us to continue to invest in our technology. We are not only continuing to develop our core functionality, but are also delivering on a modern digital, multi-channel client experience.”
