Comment

We have already signalled, in our preliminary announcement, the fact that after 15 continuous quarters of net inflows that this quarter was likely to see a net outflow of funds. Despite this short term pause in the Group's asset gathering achievements we continue to believe that, market conditions allowing, the Group is well positioned to continue to grow its assets and profits.
