Alex Scott, CEO, said:

"I can report that in our second quarter we achieved our highest ever quarterly inflows, both gross and net. This follows on from our highest ever first quarter gross inflows in the previous quarter.

Despite the substantial, downward movements in world equity markets since mid-February, this strong inflow growth has contributed to a small increase in FUD over the year.

My primary concerns are, of course, the welfare of our staff and the maintenance of services to clients. Our staff are currently working from home whilst providing as good a quality service as possible to clients and their advisers. There have been costs involved in implementing these new arrangements - but these should not have a meaningfully detrimental effect on the business or the delivery of Transact.

The outlook for the second half of the year is dependent upon the economic effects of measures to combat COVID-19 and their impact upon equity markets, FUD and flows."

The Company expects to announce half year results on 21 May 2020.
