Man Group hits $193 bln record in assets under management, profit slips
LONDON, July 30 (Reuters) - Hedge fund Man Group (EMG.L), opens new tab on Wednesday posted a 14% rise in assets under management to a record $193 billion in the six months to June 30, as new inflows helped offset a drop in pre-tax profit. "During a particularly volatile first half of 2025, we delivered positive investment performance overall and achieved net inflows of $17.6 billion, 11.5% ahead of the industry," said Robyn Grew, chief executive officer of Man Group. Net inflows surged 1,855% in the twelve months to June 30 of client funds, driven by the hedge fund's long-only products betting on the rising asset values, said a statement. The company's assets under management hit $193.3 billion as of June 30, up by an annual 8% and above analysts' expectations. The London-listed company reported a six-month core profit before tax that it collected from management and performance fees of $146 million, down 43% from $257 million in June last year. Hedge fund returns so far this year show a stark divide between those that have been able to navigate U.S. President Donald Trump's erratic decision-making and switch tactics quickly and those hemmed in by algorithmic strategies. Systematic hedge funds, whose algorithms ride market trends until they peter out, are down roughly 10% so far this year to the end of May, according to Societe Generale. "It proved to be one of the most challenging periods for trend-following strategies in 25 years; however, their intrinsic properties and long-term track record give us a high degree of conviction in the role they play in allocators' portfolios," Grew said in a statement. Hedge funds tracked by research firm PivotalPath, which covers the wider industry returned around 11% in the six months to the end of June.

Where are the best places in Scotland to retire?
Mid Dunbartonshire has been ranked the best place to retire in Scotland, according to a new nationwide index published by Legal & General. The constituency topped the Scottish list in the financial services firm's UK-wide Retirement Readiness Index. It scored areas across a range of factors that contribute to a happier later life, including access to healthcare, opportunities to build social connections, access to nature, local amenities and financial security. The index was compiled by scoring areas against six 'pillars' – housing, health, social and community, financial, nature, and amenities. Mid Dunbartonshire scored highest in Scotland due to strong performance in health, access to green space, and overall wellbeing among its over-65 population. Stirling and Strathallan, East Renfrewshire, and West Aberdeenshire and Kincardine also ranked highly, with the Western Isles (Na h-Eileanan an Iar) rounding out the top five. Other high-scoring areas included Perth and Kinross, Caithness, and Dumfries and Galloway. Across the UK, Chesham and Amersham in Buckinghamshire was named the overall best place to retire. Areas in Surrey, West Sussex, and Oxfordshire also featured prominently in the top 20. In Scotland, urban and rural areas performed well across different measures. Edinburgh North and Leith and Edinburgh West were noted for their high level of access to healthcare and local services, while areas like Argyll and Bute scored strongly on environmental and community factors. Lorna Shah, managing director of Retail Retirement at L&G, said the findings show retirement wellbeing is shaped by a combination of factors. 'Financial security is a key enabler, but it's the combination of health, social connection, the surrounding environment and access to local services that makes the biggest difference. The data suggests growing regional variation in retirement readiness, with Scotland, Wales, and parts of the South West of England offering strong overall conditions for older residents. The study comes amid ongoing national debates about retirement planning, housing provision for older adults, and the importance of community services in an ageing population. 1. Mid Dunbartonshire 2.

Santander's quarterly profit hits record as fees offset weak Mexico and Brazil
MADRID, July 30 (Reuters) - Santander ( opens new tab on Wednesday said its second-quarter net profit rose 7% on the year as higher fees and lower provisions offset a decline in Brazil and Mexico due to currency depreciations. The euro zone's largest bank by market value reported a record fifth consecutive quarterly net profit, reaching 3.43 billion euros ($3.96 billion) in the April to June period, slightly exceeding analysts' expectations of 3.36 billion euros from a Reuters poll. It also announced a new share buyback of 1.7 billion euros set to begin on Thursday, representing around 25% of the group's profit in the first half of 2025. The buyback is part of its previously announced 10 billion euros programme for 2025 and 2026. The bank has benefited in the past from higher interest rates, while growth in key Latin American markets such as Brazil has given it an edge over more Europe-dependent rivals. However, quarterly net profit in Mexico, its fourth-biggest market, fell 6.8% against a backdrop of geopolitical risks stemming from U.S. trade tariffs, particularly in that market, due to the depreciation of the Mexican peso, while net profit in Brazil, its second-biggest market after Spain, fell 16%. A 2.4% rise in fees and a decline of 3.2% in provisions helped lift Santander's return on tangible equity ratio (ROTE), after the impact of additional Tier 1 (AT1) capital instruments, a measure of profitability, to 16.2% in the quarter, compared with 15.8% at the end of March. It said it was on track to meet its target of around 16.5% this year. It said it was also on its path to meet its full-year revenue target of around 62 billion euros, while its core Tier-1 capital ratio rose 10 basis points from the previous quarter to 13% by end-June, at the top end of the bank's operating range of 12% to 13% after achieving the 2025 target ahead of schedule.
