The latest update is out from Aberdeen Group ( (GB:ABDN) ).

Aberdeen Group reported a 9% year-on-year rise in assets under management and administration to £556.0bn at 31 December 2025, supported by positive markets and strong performance from its interactive investor platform, which grew customers by 14% to 500,000, lifted AUMA 26% to £97.5bn and delivered £7.3bn of net inflows over the year. While the Adviser business continued to see net outflows, these improved 44% year-on-year to £2.2bn amid service enhancements, repricing and the launch of an Aberdeen SIPP, and the Investments division increased AUM to £390.4bn despite Q4 net outflows tied to a previously flagged £4.5bn low-margin quant mandate withdrawal and insurance run-off. Management said full-year 2025 adjusted operating profit should be in line with market expectations and highlighted momentum in commodities, fixed income, multi-asset and closed-end funds, including a Stagecoach Group Pension Scheme win and an agreement to take on £1.5bn of US closed-end fund assets, moves that underpin the strategy to build the UK’s leading wealth and investments group and support confidence in meeting 2026 profitability and capital generation targets.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:ABDN) stock is a Hold with a £2.25 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Aberdeen Group stock, see the GB:ABDN Stock Forecast page.
