Quarterly Inflows and Market Performance

April 21 (Reuters) - UK's Jupiter Fund Management posted first-quarter net inflows of 1.5 billion pounds ($2.03 billion) on Tuesday on robust client demand and favourable market performance, with uncertainty around the Iran conflict tempering some flows.

Investor Trends and Market Rotation

A rotation away from U.S. equities boosted demand for Jupiter's diversified and non-U.S. equity strategies as investors increased allocations to European and other international markets, helping offset market volatility due to the Middle East tensions in March.

Assets Under Management Update

The British wealth manager said assets under management stood at 68.4 billion pounds as of March 31, compared with 54 billion pounds reported for the year ended December 31, 2025.
