what happened
According to TradingView, Australian group Perpetual (PPT) posted record funds under administration of A$1.4 trillion in its Corporate Trust division. Its Asset Management AUM dropped 5.5% after net outflows of A$9.6 billion.
Wealth FUA stayed flat while the sale process involving Bain Capital moved forward. Completion is expected in calendar Q4 2026, subject to approvals.
why it matters
A strong fee-based trust business helps soften the impact of weaker fund flows, which matters for investors in financial companies listed on the ASX. The timeline for the Bain Capital transaction, which depends on regulatory approvals, remains the main milestone to watch in the coming months, so the market will track news on those clearances.
