Steven Levin, Chief Executive Officer of Quilter plc, commented:
“In the third quarter we maintained our strong momentum across the business. We have delivered core net flows of approximately £3 billion in each
quarter of 2026, taking year-to-date core net flows to £8.9 billion by the end of the third quarter, just short of the record £9.1 billion delivered in the
whole of 2025. We surpassed that milestone early in the fourth quarter.
“This performance reflects the strength of our dual-channel model, the quality of our propositions and our leading service offering. Gross inflows
increased by 22% year-on-year during the quarter, while gross outflow rates remained stable and in line with first-half levels.
“The UK advice platform market continues to consolidate around a small number of scale providers, and Quilter remains both the largest and fastest
growing of these. Our leadership position was recognised again during the quarter, with our platform winning ‘Platform of the Year’ for a third
consecutive year at the Vanguard Platform Awards, alongside ‘Best Platform’ awards from both Money Marketing and Moneyfacts.
“WealthSelect continues to go from strength to strength. As the UK's largest MPS provider, funds under management exceeded £30 billion for the
first time during the quarter, highlighting the continued appeal of our investment proposition to advisers and clients.
“High Net Worth delivered another quarter of consistent positive flows, reflecting improving momentum and the strength of our client offering.
“As the Government considers measures to support economic growth in the upcoming Budget, we believe there is a significant opportunity to
strengthen the UK's investment culture. Long-term investment is best supported by a stable and predictable policy environment that gives consumers,
advisers and providers the confidence to plan for the future.
“We are mindful of the current geopolitical uncertainty. Our advice-led philosophy is designed to support customers through all market conditions. Our
consistent strong flow performance reflects our customers’ recognition of the quality of our service and propositions, together with the strength of our
distribution capabilities.
“The long-term growth opportunity in UK wealth management remains compelling. With strong momentum across our businesses, market-leading
positions in our core markets and a clear focus on client outcomes, we remain well placed to capture that opportunity.”
