All content will be available to access "on demand" after the event concludes, via the event platform.

New Business Update

St. James's Place is today also providing an update on new business flows since the end of Q1 2021.

We are encouraged that the strong new business activity we experienced in March has continued into the second quarter. The combination of improving client confidence and the high level of accumulated savings, has driven strong engagement between our advisers and their clients, resulting in  gross inflows for the five months to the end of May 2021 likely to be around 23% higher than the corresponding period in 2020.

While there remains uncertainty ahead given the ongoing pandemic, we are confident of another good year for St. James's Place.
