A report published on Thursday showed that St. James Place, the biggest wealth manager in the UK, is doing well as demand for its services jump.

The company’s gross funds under management (FUM) jumped to over £10.5 billion in the year’s first half, a big improvement from the £8.5 billion it made in the same period last year. This amount was about 58% of what it brought in last year.

The net inflows doubled from £1.9 billion to £3.8 billion, while its total funds under management jumping from £190 billion in January to £198.5 billion.

These numbers fueled the growth of its revenues and profits. Its profit after tax jumped to £279 million from £165.1 million, while its earnings per share soared from 29.9p to 51.6p. In a statement, Mark FitzPatrick, the CEO said:

“Beyond new business, the first half was a busy period of heavy lifting as we progressed in delivering our key programmes of work. We expect our new simple, comparable charging structure to be in place from 26 August 2025, and we look forward to achieving this important milestone.”

The company has implemented major changes in the past few years as its turnaround intensified. It is introducing a new charging structure, which will have an initial advice charge based on the assets. The first £250,000 will be charged 3%, while the next £250k will cost 2%. Amounts of £500k and above will cost 1%.

After this, the company will charge on the ongoing charges, with advice costing 0.80%. Unit trusts and ISAs will cost 0.27%, while pensions and investment bonds will cost 0.35%. Funds will have an expense ratio of between 0.09% and 0.69%.

The company is also implementing cost cuts, with hopes to slash about £100 million by 2027. One approach has been to implement layoffs of about 500 employees.
