Quilter CEO Steven Levin said: “Delivering a broadly similar 2022 operating performance to 2021 was a pleasing outturn given more challenging market conditions during the year.
“Since my appointment as chief executive in November 2022, I have been focussing on what more we need to do to realise Quilter’s potential. While we are well positioned across the UK wealth industry, I believe we can go further to improve performance.
“My plan is to build on our existing distribution strengths, enhance our client propositions and drive greater efficiency across our business to ensure we deliver faster growth and higher profitability.”
