Schroders stock steadies as assets under management recover and profit rises

Schroders stock reflects a recovery in assets under management and higher pre-tax profit from its 2024 results, as the London-listed asset manager benefits from market gains and net new business.

Schroders stock is trading against the backdrop of improving fundamentals, after the UK asset manager reported higher profit and a larger asset base in its latest full-year figures released in early March 2025, underlining how market gains and net inflows are feeding through to earnings.

Profit up and revenue grows in 2024

According to the published full-year 2024 results on the Schroders investor relations website, the group generated profit before tax of around GBP 702 million for 2024, compared with roughly GBP 586 million in 2023, an increase of about 20% year on year.

In the same 2024 results, Schroders reported total net operating revenue of approximately GBP 2.52 billion, slightly ahead of the previous years figure of around GBP 2.44 billion, as higher average assets under management and performance fees more than offset pressure on margins.

Assets under management reach about GBP 760 billion

Schroders also highlighted that its assets under management and administration stood at roughly GBP 760 billion at the end of 2024, up from about GBP 750 billion at the end of 2023, helped by positive investment performance and net new business, particularly in its wealth and private assets franchises.

Within that total, the company indicated that its wealth management arm contributed a significant share of the growth, with that division seeing a mid-single-digit percentage increase in assets during 2024, supported by both market appreciation and ongoing client inflows.

Multi-asset and wealth products support growth

A key contributor to Schroders expansion has been its multi-asset and wealth solutions, where diversified portfolios and advisory mandates designed for private clients and institutions are attracting additional funds and supporting fee income across market cycles.

These offerings include discretionary portfolio management, model portfolio services, and tailored wealth planning solutions that aim to balance income and capital growth objectives, reinforcing the role of longer-duration client relationships in stabilizing revenues.
