The period of Polar’s FY25 (1 Apr 24 – 31 Mar 25) was horrific for many asset managers – but not for Polar. It was one of only two in our peer group to record net inflows (page 4), with heavy outflows commonplace. Polar’s AUM fell 2% over the year, with a sharp decline in Q4 on falling markets. Investment performance was -£495m, net flows +£123m, and fund closures -£111m. Post year-end, AUM has bounced back, up 6% since 31 Mar to £22.6bn (page 3).
