UBS lifts its target
According to MarketScreener on September 17, 2026, UBS upgraded Man Group from Neutral to Buy and increased its price target from GBp 335 to GBp 365. The bank linked its view to stronger performance at AHL, Man Group's systematic investment unit.
The new target was GBp 30.00 above the old target, a 8.96 percent increase calculated against GBp 335.00. MarketScreener also reported that the new target implied 15 percent upside against the then latest closing price, keeping the analyst action tied to valuation rather than a corporate transaction.
Assets reach USD 253.6 billion
Man Group reported combined funds under management of USD 253.6 billion as of June 30, 2026. The investor-relations page also separates alternative assets of USD 110.1 billion from long-only assets of USD 143.1 billion, showing the scale of the two largest disclosed pools.
Investing.com reported that the USD 253.6 billion figure was up 11 percent from December 2025, with USD 7.1 billion of net inflows and USD 19.8 billion of investment gains in the first half of 2026. Core net revenue reached USD 853 million and core profit before tax reached USD 297 million in that period, giving the valuation discussion an operating reference.
Trading statement due October 16
Man Group's investor-relations calendar schedules a trading statement for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, on October 16, 2026. The release is set to provide the next dated update on assets under management and flows after the June 30, 2026 half-year snapshot.
For investors, the key comparison is between the 11 percent AUM increase and the next quarter's flow data. AUM growth supported the first-half figures, while the October update will show whether that scale translated into continued client demand through the third quarter.
