Assets under management and advice totalled £22.6bn by 30 June, unchanged from the end of the previous financial year on 31 March.

That was despite net ouflows increasing to £1.1bn, up from £0.9bn in the same period the year before.

"Liontrust has spoken for the last nine months about how investors will need to search wider for alpha going forward and why this means a more positive environment for active management," said chief executive John Ions.

"We have now begun to see investors, led by institutional clients, turn more towards actively managed funds and diversify geographically, with Europe and the UK outperforming the US stock market over the first half of 2025."

Ions said that the company was continuing to make progress against its strategic objectives, including broadening distribution institutionally and internationally and expanding the fund range.

Shares were 5.8% higher at 383.5p by 0833 BST.
