Ninety One (LSE:N91) has reported assets under management (AUM) of £184.0 billion as of 30 June 2026, marking a substantial increase from £171.8 billion at the end of March and £139.7 billion recorded a year earlier.
The latest figures highlight continued growth in the global investment manager’s client assets over the past 12 months, reflecting the benefits of favourable market conditions, net investor inflows or a combination of both. Higher assets under management are a key driver of management fee income and are typically viewed as an important indicator of future earnings potential.
The quarterly AUM update reinforces Ninety One’s expanding presence in the global active asset management industry and strengthens its position across its core UK and South African markets. The increase in managed assets is expected to contribute positively to revenue generation and may shape investor expectations ahead of the company’s next financial results.
The announcement is intended as an operational update rather than part of any fundraising or securities issuance. It provides investors with an indication of business momentum and the continued expansion of the firm’s investment platform.
While Ninety One continues to benefit from a strong balance sheet, resilient profitability and an attractive valuation, including a dividend yield of around 6%, the shares continue to face weaker technical momentum, with the stock trading below key moving averages.
