CI Financial Corp. (“CI”) (TSX: CIX, NYSE: CIXX) today reported preliminary total assets of $333.7 billion as at June 30, 2022, consisting of asset management assets of $116.1 billion, Canadian wealth management assets of $74.1 billion, and U.S. wealth management assets of $143.5 billion.

CI also reported preliminary net sales results for its asset management businesses for the second quarter of 2022. The Canadian retail segment had $0.3 billion of redemptions for the quarter and the Canadian institutional segment accounted for $3.2 billion of redemptions. The institutional redemptions were almost entirely from one bank client, had very low fees that were priced as part of a legacy corporate relationship, and have no EBITDA impact to CI.

“While economic uncertainty and heightened market volatility affected sales and asset levels across our industry during the quarter, CI made excellent progress in executing on our strategic priorities,” said Kurt MacAlpine, CI Chief Executive Officer. “In asset management, this included the continued enhancement of our product lineup with the launch of a private infrastructure investment fund and three ETFs. Additionally, CI joint venture Axia Real Assets launched a new U.S. real estate fund through a private placement.

“In wealth management, we closed the acquisitions of Northwood Family Office Ltd. in Canada and Corient Capital Partners, LLC and Galapagos Partners, LP in the United States,” said Mr. MacAlpine. “We have also prioritized initiatives to achieve synergies and promote organic growth throughout the U.S. wealth business, with one example being our application for a trust company charter.”
