The Asset Management segment principally comprises investment management including advisory services in respect of equity, fixed income, multi-asset and private assets and alternatives products. The Wealth Management segment principally comprises investment management, wealth planning and financial advice, platform services and banking services. Segmental information is presented on the same basis as that provided for internal reporting purposes to the Group\u2019s chief operating decision maker, the Group Chief Executive. Operating expenses represent the costs incurred in running the Asset Management and Wealth Management segments and include an allocation of costs between the individual business segments on a basis that aligns the charge with the resources employed by the Group in respect of particular business functions. This allocation provides management with the relevant information as to the business performance to effectively manage and control expenditure. Operating expenses exclude items related to acquisitions, central management activities and certain restructuring costs (see note 3).

The Group has two operating segments: Asset Management and Wealth Management. The Asset Management segment principally
comprises investment management including advisory services in respect of equity, fixed income, multi-asset and private assets and
alternatives products. The Wealth Management segment principally comprises investment management, wealth planning and
financial advice, platform services and banking services.
Segmental information is presented on the same basis as that provided for internal reporting purposes to the Group\u2019s chief
operating decision maker, the Group Chief Executive.
Operating expenses represent the costs incurred in running the Asset Management and Wealth Management segments and
include an allocation of costs between the individual business segments on a basis that aligns the charge with the resources
employed by the Group in respect of particular business functions. This allocation provides management with the relevant
information as to the business performance to effectively manage and control expenditure. Operating expenses exclude items
related to acquisitions, central management activities and certain restructuring costs (see note 3). The reconciliation of operating
profit to profit before tax is included on the income\u202fstatement.
Revenue
The Group\u2019s primary source of revenue is fee income from investment management activities performed within both the Asset
Management and Wealth Management segments. Fee income includes management fees, performance fees, carried interest
and other fees. Revenue also includes interest income earned within the Wealth Management segment.
Management fees are generated through investment management agreements and are generally based on an agreed percentage
of the valuation of AUM. Management fees are recognised as the service is provided and it is probable that the fee will be collected.
Performance fees and carried interest are earned from certain arrangements when contractually agreed performance levels are
exceeded within specified performance measurement periods. They are only recognised where it is highly probable that a significant
reversal will not occur in future periods. Performance fees are typically earned over one year and are recognised at the end of the
performance period. Carried interest is earned over a longer time frame and is recognised over the period for which the service is
provided and when certain performance hurdles are expected to be met. This may result in the recognition of revenue before the
contractual crystallisation date.
Other fees principally comprise revenues for other services, which typically vary according to the volume of transactions. Other fees
are recognised as the relevant service is provided and it is probable that the fee will be collected.
Within Wealth Management, earning a net interest margin is a core activity and interest is therefore recognised within revenue.
Interest income is earned as a result of placing loans and deposits with other financial institutions, advancing loans and overdrafts
to clients, and holding debt and other fixed income securities. Interest income is recognised as it is earned using the effective
interest method, which allocates interest at a constant rate of return over the expected life of the financial instrument based on the
estimated future cash flows.
Cost of sales
Fee expenses incurred by the Group that relate directly to revenue are presented as cost of sales. These expenses include
commissions, external fund manager fees and distribution fees payable to financial institutions, investment platform providers and
financial advisers that distribute the Group\u2019s products.
Fee expense is generally based on an agreed percentage of the valuation of AUM and is recognised as the service is received.
Cost of sales also includes the cost of financial obligations arising from carried interest. Amounts payable in respect of carried
interest are determined based on the proportion of carried interest income that is payable to third parties.
Wealth Management pays interest to clients on deposits taken. Within Wealth Management, earning a net interest margin is a core
activity. Interest payable in respect of these activities is therefore recorded separately from finance costs arising elsewhere in the
business and is reported as part of cost of sales. Interest is recognised using the effective interest method (see above).
Total expenses represent the Group\u2019s administrative expenses including compensation costs. They are generally recognised as the
services are received. Certain costs, such as depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortisation of intangible assets, are
expensed evenly over the useful life of the asset or relevant contract.
Expenses comprise operating expenses, central costs, acquisition costs and related items and restructuring costs. Operating
expenses are\u202fthose costs incurred through the operating activities of the Group\u2019s operating segments: Asset Management and
Wealth Management. Central costs are those arising from capital and treasury management activities, corporate development and
strategy activities and the costs associated with the governance and corporate management of the Group. Acquisition costs and
related items include deal costs associated with corporate transactions and costs associated with the integration of acquired
businesses and amortisation of acquired intangible assets. The restructuring costs are one-off in nature and have been incurred in
reorganising parts of the group to drive cost efficiencies and allow reinvestment in building the skills needed to support the future
growth of the business. They principally comprise compensation-related costs and project expenditure.
The biggest component of the Group\u2019s total expenses is the cost of employee benefits, as shown below. Other costs primarily
consist of accommodation, information technology, marketing and outsourcing costs. Compensation costs are managed to a target
operating compensation ratio of between 45% and 49%. Targeting a compensation ratio range provides some flexibility to manage
the overall cost base in response to market conditions.
Employee benefits expense includes salaries and wages, together with the cost of other benefits provided to employees such as
pension and bonuses. The Group makes some performance awards to employees that are deferred over a specified vesting period.
Such awards are\u202fexpensed to the income statement over the performance and vesting periods. The Group holds investments that
are linked to these performance awards in order to hedge the related exposure. Gains and losses on these investments are netted
against the relevant costs in\u202fthe income statement but are presented separately below.
Further detail on other employee benefits can be found elsewhere within these financial statements. See note 24 for pension costs
and note 25 for compensation that is awarded in Schroders plc shares.
The Group is headquartered in the UK and pays taxes according to the rates applicable in the countries and states in which it
operates. Most taxes are recorded in the income statement (see part (a)) and relate to taxes payable for the reporting period
(current tax). The charge also includes benefits and charges relating to when income or expenses are recognised in a different
period for tax and accounting purposes or when there are specific treatments applicable relating to items such as acquisitions
(deferred tax \u2013 see note 14). Some current and deferred taxes are recorded through other comprehensive income (see part (b)) or
directly to equity where the tax arises from changes in the value of remuneration settled as shares (see part (c)).
This key performance indicator shows the portion of the Group\u2019s profit after tax that is attributable to each share issued by the
Company, excluding own shares held by the Group. The calculation is based on the weighted average number of shares in issue
during the year. The diluted figure recalculates that number as if all share options that would be expected to be exercised, as they
have value to the option holder, had been exercised in the year. Shares that may be issued are not taken into account if the impact
does not reduce earnings per share.
Dividends are distributions of profit to holders of the Group\u2019s share capital, usually announced with the Group\u2019s half-year and annual
results. Dividends are recognised only when they are paid to or approved by shareholders. The reduction in equity in the year
therefore comprises the prior year final dividend and the current year interim dividend.
Trade and other receivables include prepayments and deposits with banks in the form of bullion as well as amounts the Group is
due to receive from third parties in the normal course of business. Trade and other receivables, other than deposits with banks in
the form of bullion, are recorded initially at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost (see note 8). Prepayments arise where the
Group pays cash in advance for services. As the service is provided, the prepayment is reduced and the operating expense is
recognised in the income statement. Accrued income, other than amounts relating to carried interest, represents unbilled revenue
and is not dependent on future performance. Amounts due from third parties also include settlement accounts for transactions
undertaken on behalf of funds and investors. Deposits with banks in the form of bullion are recorded at fair value.
Financial assets
The Group holds financial assets including loans and advances to clients and banks, equities, debt securities, pooled investment
vehicles and derivatives (see\u202fnote 18) to support its Group capital strategies, activities within the Wealth Management banking book
and client facilitation.
The Group initially recognises all financial assets at fair value. The Group subsequently measures each financial asset at fair value
through profit or loss (FVTPL), fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) or amortised cost. Fair value is the price that
would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability between market participants. Amortised cost is the amount
determined based on moving the initial fair value to the maturity value on a systematic basis using the effective interest rate, taking
account of repayment dates and initial expected premiums or discounts.
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets are measured at amortised cost when their contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and
interest and they are held within a business model designed to collect cash flows. This classification typically applies to the Group\u2019s
loans and advances, trade receivables and some debt securities held by the Group\u2019s Wealth Management entities. The carrying value
of amortised cost financial assets is adjusted for impairment under the expected credit loss (ECL) model. Movements in the ECL
provision are recognised in other operating income in the income statement (see note 19).
Financial assets at FVOCI
Financial assets are measured at FVOCI when their contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest and
they are held within a business model designed to collect cash flows and to sell assets. This classification applies to certain debt
securities, principally within the Group\u2019s Wealth Management entities. Impairment is recognised for debt securities classified as
FVOCI under the ECL model. Movements in the ECL provision are recognised in other operating income in the income statement
(see note 19). Unrealised gains and losses on debt securities classified as financial assets at FVOCI are recorded in other
comprehensive income. Cumulative gains and losses are transferred to the income statement if the asset is sold or otherwise
realised. Interest earned on FVOCI assets is recognised using the effective interest method and recorded as interest in the income
statement.
Financial assets at FVTPL
All other financial assets are measured at FVTPL. Net gains and losses are presented in the income statement based on the
substance of the\u202ftransaction. Net gains and losses on co-investments are presented within other operating income; net gains and
losses on the Group\u2019s investment and seed capital are presented within net gain/(loss) on financial instruments and other income;
and net gains and losses on investments that are held to hedge deferred employee cash awards are presented within operating
expenses (see note 3). This separate presentation provides more relevant information about the applicable components of the
Group\u2019s income statement.
Financial liabilities
The Group\u2019s financial liabilities principally comprise deposits by Wealth Management clients and banking counterparties. They also
include derivatives (see note 18) to support its Group capital strategies, activities within the Wealth Management banking book and
client facilitation. Financial liabilities also arise from obligations in respect of carried interest, contingent consideration and other
liabilities arising from acquisitions completed by the Group, and third party interests in consolidated funds.
The Group initially recognises all financial liabilities at fair value. These are subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value.
Financial liabilities at amortised cost
The majority of the Group\u2019s financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost and this typically applies to the Group\u2019s Wealth
Management client accounts, banking deposits and trade payables.
Financial liabilities at FVTPL
Financial liabilities are measured at FVTPL when this reduces an accounting mismatch or when otherwise required by the accounting
standards. This classification typically applies to financial obligations in respect of carried interest, third party interests in
consolidated funds (see Basis of preparation on page 142) and contingent consideration.
Net gains and losses are presented in the income statement based on the substance of the instrument. Net gains and losses on
financial obligations in respect of carried interest are presented within cost of sales; and net gains and losses on contingent
consideration are presented within acquisition costs and related items. This separate presentation provides more relevant
information about the applicable components of the Group\u2019s income statement.
Liabilities to purchase subsidiary shares
Financial liabilities in relation to equity transactions arise on certain acquisitions where the Group has a liability to purchase the
remaining interest in a subsidiary that is not wholly owned by the Group (see Basis of preparation on page 142).
Associates are entities in which the Group has an investment and over which it has significant influence, but not control, through
participation in the financial and operating policy decisions. Joint ventures are entities in which the Group has an investment where
it, along with one or more other shareholders, has contractually agreed to share control of the business and where the major
decisions require the unanimous consent of the joint partners. In both cases, the Group initially records the investment at the fair
value of the purchase consideration, including purchase-related costs. The Group\u2019s income statement reflects its share of the
entity\u2019s profit or loss after tax and amortisation of intangible assets. The Group\u2019s statement of other comprehensive income records
the Group\u2019s share of gains and losses arising from the entity\u2019s financial assets at FVOCI (see note 8). The statement of financial
position subsequently records the Group\u2019s share of the net assets of the entity plus any goodwill and intangible assets that arose
on purchase, less subsequent amortisation. The statement of changes in equity records the Group\u2019s share of other equity
movements of the entity. At each reporting date, the Group applies judgement to determine whether there is any indication that
the carrying value of associates and joint ventures may be impaired.
The associates and joint ventures reserve in the statement of changes in equity represents the Group\u2019s share of profits in its
investments yet to be received (for example, in the form of dividends or distributions), less any amortisation of intangible assets.
Certain associates are held within financial assets at FVTPL where permitted by the accounting standards (see note 8). Information
about the Group\u2019s principal associates measured at fair value is disclosed within this note.
The Group\u2019s property, plant and equipment provides the infrastructure to enable the Group to operate and principally comprise
leasehold improvements, freehold land and buildings, fixtures and fittings and computer equipment. Right-of-use assets in the
form of leases are also\u202fincluded within property, plant and equipment (further detail is found in note 12). Assets are initially stated
at cost, which includes expenditure associated with the acquisition. The cost of the asset is recognised in the income statement as a
depreciation charge on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life, with the exception of land which is assumed to have an
indefinite useful life.
The Group\u2019s lease arrangements primarily consist of operating leases relating to office space.
The Group initially records a lease liability in the statement of financial position reflecting the present value of the future contractual
cash flows to be made over the lease term, discounted using the Group\u2019s incremental borrowing rate. This is the rate that the Group
would have to pay for a loan of a similar term and with similar security to obtain an asset of similar value. A right-of-use (ROU) asset
is recorded at the value of the lease liability plus any directly related costs and estimated future dilapidation expense and is
presented within property, plant and equipment (see note 11) on the balance sheet. Interest is accrued on the lease liability using
the effective interest method to give a constant rate of return over the life of the lease while the balance is reduced as lease
payments are made. The ROU asset is depreciated from commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the ROU
asset or the end of the lease term as the benefit of the asset is consumed. Increases or decreases that occur at contractually agreed
market rent review dates are included in the lease liability once\u202frevised market rents have been agreed.
The Group considers whether the lease term should reflect options to extend or reduce the life of the lease. Relevant factors that
could create an economic incentive to exercise the option are considered and the extension/termination is included if it is
reasonably certain to be exercised. After the commencement date, the Group reassesses the lease term if there is a significant event
or change in circumstances that is within its control and affects the likelihood that it will exercise (or not exercise) the option. Should
this occur, the Group modifies the lease liability and associated ROU asset to reflect the revised remaining expected cash flows.
Intangible assets (other than software) arise when the Group acquires a business and the fair value paid exceeds the fair value of
the net tangible assets acquired. This premium reflects additional value that the Group determines to be attached to the business.
Identifiable acquired intangible assets relating to business combinations include technology and contractual agreements to manage
client assets and gain additional access to new or existing clients and geographies. Where such assets can be identified, they are
classified as acquired intangible assets and amortised to the income statement within acquisition costs and related items on a
straight-line basis, primarily over seven years.
Consideration paid to acquire a business in excess of the acquisition date fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets
is known as goodwill. Goodwill is not charged to the income statement unless its value has diminished. The assessment of whether
goodwill has become impaired is based on the expected future returns of the relevant cash-generating unit (CGU) as a whole.
Software purchased and developed for use in the business is also classified as an intangible asset. The cost of purchasing and
developing software is taken to the income statement over time as an amortisation charge within operating expenses. The
treatment is similar to that for property, plant and equipment, and the asset is normally amortised on a straight-line basis over three
to five years, but can have an estimated useful life of up to ten years.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent amounts of tax that will become recoverable and payable in future accounting periods.
They\u202farise as a result of temporary differences, where the time at which profits and losses are recognised for tax purposes differs
from the time at which the relevant transaction is recorded. A deferred tax asset represents a tax reduction that is expected to arise
in a future period based on past transactions. A deferred tax liability represents taxes that will become payable in a future period as
a result of current or prior\u202fyear transactions.
Deferred tax liabilities also arise on certain acquisitions where the amortisation of the acquired intangible asset does not result in a
tax deduction. The deferred tax liability is established on acquisition and is released to the income statement to match the intangible
asset amortisation. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when
the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the
year-end date.
The Group operates a unit-linked life assurance business through the wholly owned subsidiary Schroder Pension Management
Limited (the\u202fLife Company). The Life Company provides unit-linked investment products through a life assurance wrapper. The
investment products do not provide cover for insurance risk and are therefore recognised and accounted for as financial
instruments and presented as financial liabilities due to Life Company investors (policyholders) within unit-linked liabilities. The
financial risks of these products are largely borne by the third-party investors, consistent with other investment products managed
by the Group. However, since the Life Company, which is a subsidiary, issues the investment instrument and holds the relevant
financial assets, both the investments and the third-party obligations are recorded in the statement of financial position.
The investment product is almost identical to a unit trust. As it is a life assurance product, the contractual rights and obligations of
the investments remain with the Group and the AUM is therefore included on the statement of financial position, together with the
liability to investors. The Group earns fee income from managing the investment, which is included in revenue.
Financial assets held by the Life Company are measured at FVTPL. Other balances include cash and receivables, which are measured
at amortised cost (see note 8). The unit-linked liabilities are measured at FVTPL to avoid an accounting mismatch. The Life Company\u2019s
assets are regarded as current assets as they represent the amount available to Life Company investors (or third party investors in
consolidated funds) who are able to withdraw their funds on call, subject to certain restrictions in the case of illiquidity. Gains and
losses from assets held to cover investor obligations are attributable to investors in the Life Company or to third party investors in
the funds. As a result, any gain or loss is offset by a change in the obligation to investors.
Trade and other payables include amounts the Group is due to pay in the normal course of business, accruals and deferred income
(being fees received in advance of services provided as well as deferred cash awards), and bullion deposits by customers. Trade and
other payables, other than deferred cash awards and bullion deposits, are recorded initially at fair value and subsequently at
amortised cost (see note 8). Amounts due to be paid by the Group in the normal course of business are made up of creditors and
accruals. Accruals represent costs, including remuneration, that are not yet billed or due for payment, but for which the goods or
services have been received. Deferred cash awards (being deferred employee remuneration payable in cash) and bullion deposits by
customers are recorded at fair value.
Provisions are liabilities where there is uncertainty over the timing or amount of settlement and therefore they usually require the
use of estimates. They are recognised when three conditions are fulfilled: when the Group has a present obligation (legal or
constructive) as a result of a past event; when it is probable that the Group will incur a loss in order to settle the obligation; and when
a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. They are recorded at the Group\u2019s best estimate of the cost of
settling the obligation. Any differences between those estimates and the amounts for which the Group actually becomes liable are
taken to the income statement as additional charges where the Group has underestimated and credits where the Group has
overestimated. Where the estimated timing and settlement are longer term, the amount is discounted using a rate reflecting specific
risks associated with the provision.
Contingent liabilities are potential liabilities, which could include a dependency on events not within the Group\u2019s control, but where
there is a possible obligation. Contingent liabilities are disclosed only where significant and are not included within the statement of
financial position.
The Group holds derivatives for risk management, client facilitation and within its consolidated structured entities to provide
exposure to market returns. The Group most commonly uses forward foreign exchange contracts, where it agrees to buy or sell
specified amounts of a named currency at a future date, allowing the Group to effectively fix exchange rates so that it can avoid
unpredictable gains and losses on financial instruments in foreign currency assets and liabilities. The Group uses futures, total
return swaps and credit default swaps to hedge market-related gains and losses on its seed capital investments where the purpose
of investing is to help establish a new product rather than gain additional market exposure.
The Group designates certain derivatives as hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation. In these scenarios, and where
relevant conditions are met, hedge accounting is applied and the Group formally documents the relationship between the derivative
and any hedged item, its risk management objectives and its strategy for undertaking the various hedging transactions. It also
documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging
transactions are effective in offsetting changes in the fair value of hedged items. In respect of hedges of a net investment in a
foreign operation, the portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge is
recognised directly in other comprehensive income. The Group\u2019s net investment hedges are generally fully effective, but any
ineffective portion that may arise is recognised in the income statement. On disposal of the foreign operation, together with the
hedged gain or loss, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument is transferred to the income statement.
The Group Capital Committee is responsible for the management of the Group\u2019s capital and sets objectives for how it is deployed.
This note explains how the Group manages its capital, setting out the nature of the risks the Group faces as a result of its
operations, and how these risks are quantified and managed.
The Group is exposed to different forms of financial instrument risk including: (i) the risk that money owed to the Group will not be
received (credit risk); (ii) the risk that the Group may not have sufficient cash available to pay its creditors as they fall due (liquidity
risk); and (iii) the risk that the value of assets will fluctuate as a result of movements in factors such as market prices, interest rates
and foreign exchange rates (market risk). The management of such risks is embedded in managerial responsibilities fundamental to
the wellbeing of the Group.
The Group\u2019s primary exposure to financial instrument risk is derived from the financial instruments that it holds as principal. In
addition, due to the nature of the business, the Group\u2019s exposure extends to the impact on investment management and other fees
that are determined on the basis of a percentage of AUM and are therefore impacted by the financial instrument risk exposure of
our clients \u2013 the secondary exposure. This note deals only with the direct or primary exposure of the risks from the Group\u2019s holding
of financial instruments.
Disclosures relating to unit-linked liabilities and assets backing unit-linked liabilities are included in note 15.
Share capital primarily comprises the number of issued ordinary shares in Schroders plc multiplied by their nominal value of 20
pence each (2023: 20 pence each). Where the proceeds received on issue of the shares is greater than the nominal value the
difference is recorded in share premium. The Company has authority to buyback ordinary shares, restricted by minimum and
maximum price caps and a\u202fmaximum number of shares. Any ordinary shares bought back may be cancelled or held in treasury.
Unless renewed, authority will expire at the Company\u2019s next annual general meeting, or on 30 June 2025 if earlier.
Own shares are recorded by the Group when ordinary shares are acquired by the Company or acquired through employee benefit
trusts. This enables the Group to hold some of its shares to settle option exercises or for other permitted purposes. Own shares are
held at cost and their purchase reduces the Group\u2019s net assets by the amount spent. When shares vest unconditionally or are
cancelled, they are transferred from own shares to the profit and loss reserve at their weighted average cost.
This note should be read in conjunction with the cash flow statement. It provides a reconciliation to show how profit before tax,
which is based on accounting rules, translates to cash flows.
Commitments represent amounts the Group has contractually committed to pay to third parties but do not yet represent a liability
or impact the Group\u2019s financial results for the year.
The Group\u2019s commitments primarily relate to investment call commitments, commitments for property, plant and equipment and
future leases not yet commenced.
The Group sublets a small number of its owned and leased properties where such properties, or parts of such properties, are not
required for use by the Group. The table below discloses the commitments sub-lessees have made in respect of such arrangements.
These commitments are not recorded on the statement of financial position in advance of the period to which they relate.
The Group has two principal types of pension benefit for employees: defined benefit (DB), where the Group has an obligation to provide
participating employees with pension payments that represent a specified percentage of their final salary for each year of service, and
defined contribution (DC), where the Group\u2019s contribution to an employee\u2019s pension is measured as, and limited to, a specified percentage
of salary.
Accounting for DB schemes requires an assessment of the likely quantum of future pension payments to be made. If ring-fenced assets are
held specifically to meet this cost, the scheme is funded, and if not, it is unfunded. The Group periodically reviews its funded DB schemes
using actuarial specialists to assess whether it is on course to meet the expected pension payments that current and former employees are,
or will be, entitled to. In the case of a projected shortfall, a plan must be formulated to reverse the deficit.
The income statement charge or credit represents the sum of pension entitlements earned by employees in the period, plus a notional
net interest charge (if the scheme is in deficit) or income (if it is in surplus) based on the market yields on high quality corporate bonds.
Experience differences, principally the difference between actual investment returns and the notional interest amount, as well as actuarial
changes in estimating the present value of future liabilities, are recorded in other comprehensive income.
Assets or liabilities recognised in the statement of financial position represent the differences between the fair value of plan assets (if any)
and the actuarially determined estimates of the present value of future liabilities. The Group closed its largest DB scheme to future accrual
on 30 April 2011, although it still operates some small unfunded schemes overseas. This means that no future service will contribute to the
closed scheme member benefits but those members continue to have the benefits determined by the Scheme rules as at 30 April 2011.
The Group\u2019s exposure to funding DC pension schemes is limited to the contributions it has agreed to make. These contributions generally
stop when employment ceases. The income statement charge represents the contributions the Group has agreed to make into employees\u2019
pension schemes in that year.
The disclosures within this note are provided mainly in respect of the principal DB scheme, which is the DB section of the funded Schroders
Retirement Benefits Scheme (the Scheme).
Share-based payments are remuneration payments to selected employees that take the form of an award of shares in Schroders
plc. Employees are generally not able to exercise such awards in full until three years after the award has been made, although
conditions vary between different types of award. The accounting for share-based awards settled by transferring shares to the
employees (equity-settled) differs from the accounting for similar awards settled in cash (cash-settled). The charge for equity-settled
share-based payments is determined based on the fair value of the award on the grant date. Such awards can include share awards
that may or may not have performance criteria. The initial fair value of the award takes into account the current value of shares
expected to be issued (i.e. estimates of\u202fthe likely levels of forfeiture and achievement of performance criteria), and the contribution, if
required, by the employee. This initial fair value is charged to the income statement reflecting benefits received from employment,
where relevant, in the performance period and over the vesting period. The income statement charge is offset by a credit to the
statement of changes in equity, where the award is expected to be settled through the issue of shares. Such awards constituted
3.0% (2023: 5.9%) of salaries, wages and other remuneration (see note 3).
The Group may make share-based payments to employees through awards over or linked to the value of ordinary shares and by the
grant of market value share options over ordinary shares. These arrangements involve a maximum term of ten years.
It is the Group\u2019s practice to hedge all awards to eliminate the impact of changes in the market value of shares between the grant
date and the exercise date.
Awards that lapse or are forfeited during the vesting period result in a credit to the income statement (reversing the previous
charge) in the year in which they lapse or are forfeited.
Awards over ordinary shares made under the Group\u2019s Deferred Award Plan are charged at fair value as operating expenses in the
income statement. Fair value is determined at the date of grant and is equal to the market value of the shares at that time. The fair
value charges, adjusted to reflect actual levels of vesting, are spread over the performance period and the vesting periods of the
awards. Awards are structured as nil-cost options.
Awards over ordinary shares made under the Group\u2019s Equity Compensation Plan are charged at fair value as operating expenses in
the income statement. Fair value is determined at the date of grant and is equal to the market value of the shares at that time. The
fair value charges, adjusted to reflect actual levels of vesting, are spread over the performance period and the vesting periods of the
awards. Awards\u202fare structured as nil-cost options. No new awards will be granted under this plan, as it has been superseded by the
Deferred Award Plan (DAP).
Awards over ordinary shares made under the Group\u2019s Equity Incentive Plan are charged at fair value as operating expenses to the
income statement, over a five-year vesting period. Fair value is determined at the date of grant and is equal to the market value of
the shares at that time. Awards are structured as nil-cost options. No new awards will be granted under this plan, as it has been
superseded by the Deferred Award Plan (DAP).
Awards over ordinary shares made under the Group\u2019s Long Term Incentive Plan are charged at fair value to the income statement
over a four-year vesting period. Fair value is calculated using the market value of the shares at the grant date, discounted for
dividends forgone over the vesting period of the award and adjusted based on an estimate at the year-end date of the extent to
which the performance conditions are expected to be met. Awards are structured as nil-cost options.
The employee monthly share purchase plan is open to UK permanent employees and provides free shares from the Group to match
the employee purchase of shares up to a maximum of \u00a3100 per month. The shares vest after one year.
Certain employees have been awarded cash-settled equivalents to these share-based awards. The fair value of these awards is
determined using the same methods and models used to value the equivalent equity-settled awards. The fair value of the liability is
remeasured at each balance sheet date and at settlement date.
Transactions between the Group and parties related to the Group are required to be disclosed to the extent that they are necessary
for an understanding of the potential effect of the relationship on the financial statements. Other disclosures, such as key
management personnel compensation, are also required.
Structured entities are those entities that have been designed so that voting or similar rights are not the dominant factor in deciding
who has control, such as when any voting rights relate to administrative tasks only, or when the relevant activities are directed by
means of contractual arrangements. The Group\u2019s interests in consolidated and unconsolidated structured entities are described
below.
The Group has interests in structured entities as a result of contractual arrangements arising from its principal activity, the
management of assets on behalf of its clients. AUM, excluding deposits by Wealth Management clients and some segregated client
portfolios held within the Group\u2019s Asset Management business, is managed within structured entities. These structured entities
typically consist of investment vehicles such as Open Ended Investment Companies, Authorised Unit Trusts, Limited Partnerships and
Soci\u00e9t\u00e9s d\u2019Investissement \u00e0 Capital Variable, which entitle investors to a percentage of the vehicle\u2019s net asset value. The vehicles are
financed by the purchase of units or shares by investors. The Group also has interests in structured entities through proprietary
investments. These are mainly into vehicles that help facilitate the Group\u2019s stated aim of generating a return on capital and when it
deploys seed and co-investment capital in developing new investment strategies or as it invests alongside its clients. Additionally, the
Group holds interests in structured entities for liquidity management purposes, for example via investments in money market funds.
The Group does not guarantee returns on the investments it manages or commit to financially support its structured entities. A small
proportion of the Group\u2019s AUM, principally real estate funds, is permitted to raise finance through loans from banks and other financial
institutions. Where external finance is raised, the Group does not provide a guarantee for the repayment of any borrowings.
The business activity of all structured entities in which the Group has an interest, is the management of assets in order to generate
investment returns for investors from capital appreciation and/or investment income. The Group earns a management fee from its
structured entities, normally based on a percentage of the entity\u2019s net asset value, committed capital value or gross asset value and,
where contractually agreed, a performance fee or carried interest, based on outperformance against predetermined benchmarks.
In addition, where the Group owns a proportion of the structured entity it is entitled to receive investment returns.
The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration for the acquisition of a
subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and any equity
interests issued by the Group. The consideration includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from contingent or
deferred consideration arrangements. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business
combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognises any non-controlling interest at
the fair value of the proportionate share of the acquiree\u2019s identifiable net assets.
(c) Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial information includes the total comprehensive gains or losses, the financial position and the cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures. This includes share ownership trusts established for certain share-based awards. In the case of associates and joint ventures, those entities are presented as single line items in the consolidated income statement and consolidated statement of financial position (see note 10). Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated on consolidation. Consistent accounting policies have been applied across the Group in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Details of the Company\u2019s related undertakings are presented in note 37. The entities included in the consolidation may vary year on year due both to the restructuring of the Group (including acquisitions and disposals) and changes to the number of pooled investment vehicles controlled by the Group. Where the Group controls a pooled investment vehicle, it is consolidated and the third party interest is recorded as a financial liability until the Group loses control. This consolidation has no net effect on the Group\u2019s consolidated income statement. The consolidated cash flow statement separately presents acquisitions and disposals of interests in consolidated pooled vehicles. Cash movements within the pooled vehicles are shown net\u202fwithin cash flows from operating activities as the cash held within the underlying pooled investment vehicles is restricted and is not available to the Group for corporate purposes. This presentation provides more relevant information about the impact of the Group\u2019s investment in pooled vehicles on corporate cash resources than an analysis of the underlying cash flows of the vehicles. The Group records any non-controlling interest at the proportionate share of the acquiree\u2019s identifiable assets. Where an option exists to acquire a further interest in the shares of a subsidiary a financial liability is recognised. These liabilities are measured at the present value of the expected amount payable on exercise. As the option relates to a change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, the non-controlling interest is adjusted and changes in value are recognised directly in equity. If these options expire unexercised, the financial liability is derecognised with the corresponding credit recognised directly in equity. The most significant non-controlling interest relates to third party interests of 19.1% in Schroders Wealth Holdings Limited (SWHL). The consolidated profit after tax of SWHL was \u00a383.8 million for the year (2023: \u00a357.9 million). The net assets of SWHL were \u00a3377.4 million at 31 December 2024 (2023: \u00a3312.1 million). Dividends of \u00a33.6 million were paid to SWHL\u2019s non-controlling interest during the year (2023: \u00a312.4 million). No other non-controlling interest is considered to be individually material on the basis of the carrying value at 31 December 2024 (2023: same). (d) Net gains and losses on foreign exchange Many subsidiaries are denominated in currencies other than sterling. The results of these subsidiaries are translated at the average rate of exchange. At the year end, the assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate of exchange. Gains or losses on translation are recorded in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and as a separate component of equity together with gains or losses on any hedges of overseas operations. Such gains or losses are transferred to the consolidated income statement on disposal or liquidation of the relevant subsidiary. Transactions undertaken in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency of the subsidiary at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction. Foreign currency assets and liabilities, other than those measured at historical cost, are translated into the functional currency at the rates of exchange ruling at the year-end date. Any exchange differences arising are included within the consolidated income statement. (e) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank, short-term deposits with contractual maturities of three months or less and money market funds that are readily convertible to cash and used for cash management purposes.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DisclosureOfMaterialAccountingPolicyInformationExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:2138001YYBULX5SZ2H24", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "fact-446": { "value": "The Group has two operating segments: Asset Management and Wealth Management.

Segmental information is presented on the same basis as that provided for internal reporting purposes to the Group\u2019s chief operating decision maker, the Group Chief Executive. Operating expenses represent the costs incurred in running the Asset Management and Wealth Management segments and include an allocation of costs between the individual business segments on a basis that aligns the charge with the resources employed by the Group in respect of particular business functions. This allocation provides management with the relevant information as to the business performance to effectively manage and control expenditure.

Fee income includes management fees, performance fees, carried interest and other fees. Revenue also includes interest income earned within the Wealth Management segment. Management fees are generated through investment management agreements and are generally based on an agreed percentage of the valuation of AUM. Management fees are recognised as the service is provided and it is probable that the fee will be collected. Performance fees and carried interest are earned from certain arrangements when contractually agreed performance levels are exceeded within specified performance measurement periods. They are only recognised where it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur in future periods. Performance fees are typically earned over one year and are recognised at the end of the performance period. Carried interest is earned over a longer time frame and is recognised over the period for which the service is provided and when certain performance hurdles are expected to be met. This may result in the recognition of revenue before the contractual crystallisation date. Other fees principally comprise revenues for other services, which typically vary according to the volume of transactions. Other fees are recognised as the relevant service is provided and it is probable that the fee will be collected. Within Wealth Management, earning a net interest margin is a core activity and interest is therefore recognised within revenue. Interest income is earned as a result of placing loans and deposits with other financial institutions, advancing loans and overdrafts to clients, and holding debt and other fixed income securities. Interest income is recognised as it is earned using the effective interest method, which allocates interest at a constant rate of return over the expected life of the financial instrument based on the estimated future cash flows. Cost of sales Fee expenses incurred by the Group that relate directly to revenue are presented as cost of sales. These expenses include commissions, external fund manager fees and distribution fees payable to financial institutions, investment platform providers and financial advisers that distribute the Group\u2019s products. Fee expense is generally based on an agreed percentage of the valuation of AUM and is recognised as the service is received. Cost of sales also includes the cost of financial obligations arising from carried interest. Amounts payable in respect of carried interest are determined based on the proportion of carried interest income that is payable to third parties. Wealth Management pays interest to clients on deposits taken. Within Wealth Management, earning a net interest margin is a core activity. Interest payable in respect of these activities is therefore recorded separately from finance costs arising elsewhere in the business and is reported as part of cost of sales. Interest is recognised using the effective interest method (see above).

Estimates and judgements \u2013 revenue The principle estimates and judgements for revenue relate to carried interest. Carried interest represents the Group\u2019s contractual right to a share of the profits of 141 private asset investment vehicles (2023: 133 vehicles), if certain performance hurdles are met. It is recognised as the services are provided and it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur. The amount of carried interest that will ultimately be received by the Group is dependent on the cash flows realised by the respective investment vehicles when the underlying investments are successfully disposed of. The resultant cash flows are assessed against the applicable performance hurdle, which is dependent on the capital invested and the timing and quantum of distributions. For accounting purposes, the outcome is discounted to determine the present value of the carried interest to be recognised. The actual amount receivable at maturity will depend on the realised value and may differ from the projected value. The Group estimates the cash flows that will be received by the investment vehicles with reference to the current fair value of the underlying investments. Judgement is applied to determine certain assumptions used in the estimate. Those assumptions principally relate to the future growth and the timing of distributions. No future growth is assumed, reflecting the uncertainty of future investment returns. The timing of distributions to clients is based on individual investment managers\u2019 expectations as to the realisation of cash flows from the successful disposal of the underlying securities. The Group assesses the nature and maturity of the respective investment vehicles. This helps the Group to understand whether a significant risk of reversal exists and to determine whether the revenue should be recognised or further constrained in accordance with the accounting standards. Estimates and judgements \u2013 cost of sales The principle estimates and judgements for cost of sales relate to carried interest. The crystallisation of associated financial obligations in respect of carried interest (carried interest payable, see note 8) is contingent on the Group receiving the related revenue. The areas of estimates and judgements are the same as those used to determine the present value of the carried interest receivable, adjusted to reflect the portion that is payable to third parties. The actual amount payable at maturity will depend on the realised value of the carried interest receivable and may differ from the projected value. An increase in the growth rate of 3% would increase cost of sales by \u00a33.4 million (2023: \u00a33.9 million), although this would be smaller than the corresponding increase in revenue. An average acceleration/delay in crystallisation dates of one year would increase/reduce cost of sales by \u00a35.0 million/\u00a35.0 million (2023: \u00a33.3 million/\u00a33.2 million) and this amount would be lower than the corresponding increase/reduction in revenue.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DisclosureOfCostOfSalesExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:2138001YYBULX5SZ2H24", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "fact-416": { "value": "2 Net operating revenue Revenue The Group\u2019s primary source of revenue is fee income from investment management activities performed within both the Asset Management and Wealth Management segments.

Estimates and judgements \u2013 revenue
The principle estimates and judgements for revenue relate to carried interest. Carried interest represents the Group\u2019s contractual
right to a share of the profits of 141 private asset investment vehicles (2023: 133 vehicles), if certain performance hurdles are met. It
is recognised as the services are provided and it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur.
The amount of carried interest that will ultimately be received by the Group is dependent on the cash flows realised by the
respective investment vehicles when the underlying investments are successfully disposed of. The resultant cash flows are assessed
against the applicable performance hurdle, which is dependent on the capital invested and the timing and quantum of distributions.
For accounting purposes, the outcome is discounted to determine the present value of the carried interest to be recognised. The
actual amount receivable at maturity will depend on the realised value and may differ from the projected value.
The Group estimates the cash flows that will be received by the investment vehicles with reference to the current fair value of the
underlying investments. Judgement is applied to determine certain assumptions used in the estimate. Those assumptions principally
relate to the future growth and the timing of distributions. No future growth is assumed, reflecting the uncertainty of future
investment returns. The timing of distributions to clients is based on individual investment managers\u2019 expectations as to the
realisation of cash flows from the successful disposal of the underlying securities.
The Group assesses the nature and maturity of the respective investment vehicles. This helps the Group to understand whether a
significant risk of reversal exists and to determine whether the revenue should be recognised or further constrained in accordance
with the accounting standards.
Estimates and judgements \u2013 cost of sales
The principle estimates and judgements for cost of sales relate to carried interest. The crystallisation of associated financial
obligations in respect of carried interest (carried interest payable, see note 8) is contingent on the Group receiving the related
revenue. The areas of estimates and judgements are the same as those used to determine the present value of the carried interest
receivable, adjusted to reflect the portion that is payable to third parties. The actual amount payable at maturity will depend on the
realised value of the carried interest receivable and may differ from the projected value. An increase in the growth rate of 3% would
increase cost of sales by \u00a33.4 million (2023: \u00a33.9 million), although this would be smaller than the corresponding increase in
revenue. An average acceleration/delay in crystallisation dates of one year would increase/reduce cost of sales by \u00a35.0 million/\u00a35.0
million (2023: \u00a33.3 million/\u00a33.2 million) and this amount would be lower than the corresponding increase/reduction in revenue.

Fee income includes management fees, performance fees, carried interest and other fees. Revenue also includes interest income earned within the Wealth Management segment. Management fees are generated through investment management agreements and are generally based on an agreed percentage of the valuation of AUM. Management fees are recognised as the service is provided and it is probable that the fee will be collected. Performance fees and carried interest are earned from certain arrangements when contractually agreed performance levels are exceeded within specified performance measurement periods. They are only recognised where it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur in future periods. Performance fees are typically earned over one year and are recognised at the end of the performance period. Carried interest is earned over a longer time frame and is recognised over the period for which the service is provided and when certain performance hurdles are expected to be met. This may result in the recognition of revenue before the contractual crystallisation date. Other fees principally comprise revenues for other services, which typically vary according to the volume of transactions. Other fees are recognised as the relevant service is provided and it is probable that the fee will be collected. Within Wealth Management, earning a net interest margin is a core activity and interest is therefore recognised within revenue. Interest income is earned as a result of placing loans and deposits with other financial institutions, advancing loans and overdrafts to clients, and holding debt and other fixed income securities.

Estimates and judgements
The calculation of the Group\u2019s tax charge involves a degree of estimation and judgement. Liabilities relating to open and
judgemental matters, including those in relation to deferred taxes, are based on the Group\u2019s assessment of the most likely outcome
based on the information available. As a result, certain tax amounts are based on estimates using factors that are relevant to the
specific judgement. The Group engages constructively and transparently with tax authorities with a view to early resolution of any
uncertain tax matters. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts provided, such differences will
impact the tax charge in a future period. Such estimates are based on assumptions made on the probability of potential challenge
within certain jurisdictions and the possible outcome based on relevant facts and circumstances, including local tax laws. There was
no individual judgemental component of the tax expense that was material to the Group results when taking into account the likely
range of potential outcomes (2023: none).
Estimates and judgements \u2013 carried interest receivable
Accrued income includes \u00a3131.2 million of receivables in respect of carried interest (2023: \u00a3140.2 million). This income is due over a
number of years and only when contractually agreed performance levels are exceeded. The income received may vary as a result of
the actual experience, including future investment returns, differing from that assumed. Further information regarding the
estimates and judgements applied is set out in note 2.
Estimates and judgements
The Group holds financial instruments that are measured at fair value. The fair value of financial instruments may be derived from
readily available sources or may require some estimation. The degree of estimation involved depends on the individual financial
instrument and is reflected in the fair value hierarchy below. Judgements may include determining which valuation approach to apply
as well as determining appropriate assumptions. For level 2 and 3 financial instruments, the judgement applied by the Group gives
rise to an estimate of fair value. The approach to determining the fair value estimate of level 2 and 3 financial instruments is set out
below. The fair value levels are based on the degree to which the fair value is observable and are defined as follows:
\u2013 Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities and principally comprise investments in pooled investment vehicles, quoted equities, national government debt and
exchange-traded derivatives.
\u2013 Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs that are directly or indirectly observable from market data, other
than quoted prices included in level 1. The Group\u2019s level 2 financial instruments principally comprise holdings in pooled
investment vehicles, foreign exchange contracts, corporate and non-national government debt securities and asset and mortgage
backed securities. Valuation techniques may include using a broker quote in an inactive market or an evaluated price based on a
compilation of primarily observable market information utilising information readily available via external sources. For funds not
priced on a daily basis, the net asset value that is issued monthly or quarterly is used.
\u2013 Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include significant inputs that are not based on
observable market data. The Group\u2019s level 3 financial assets principally comprise holdings in pooled investment vehicles, including
private equity funds, holdings in property investment vehicles that operate hotel businesses, and direct investments held via
consolidated funds. The pooled investment vehicles and direct investments are measured in accordance with International Private
Equity and Venture Capital Valuation Guidelines 2022 using the valuation technique that is most suitable to the applicable
investment. The property investment vehicles are valued based on the expected future cash flows that could be generated from
the underlying hotel businesses. Given the application of different valuation techniques, and as the investments are not
homogenous in nature, there are no significant assumptions or reasonably possible alternatives that would lead to a material
change in fair\u202fvalue.
The Group\u2019s financial liabilities categorised as level 3 principally consist of third-party liabilities related to carried interest
arrangements, obligations arising from contingent consideration and other liabilities to purchase the remaining interest in acquired
subsidiaries. Information about the estimates and judgements made in determining the fair value of carried interest payable is set out
in note 2. Liabilities in respect of options to purchase the remaining interest in certain subsidiaries require judgement in determining
the appropriate assumptions to be applied in the estimation of the fair value. The amount that will ultimately be paid in relation to an
option is dependent on the future earnings of the subsidiary and may be subject to a cap over the enterprise value. In estimating the
liability, the assumptions principally relate to the future earnings of the business, the market multiple applied to the earnings and the
rate applied to discount the liability back to present value. The future earnings of the applicable subsidiaries are estimated based on
cash flow forecasts specific to the individual business and consequently there is no one assumption that is individually material to the
valuation. Market multiples are applied to the forecast earnings to estimate the fair value of the business. Market multiples reflect the
nature of the business and take into account observable market transactions where appropriate. Market multiples range from 10 to
15 times earnings. An increase/decrease in market multiples of one would increase/decrease the financial liability by \u00a37 million/\u00a37
million (2023: \u00a310 million/\u00a310 million). Discount rates between 11% and 14% have been used to discount these liabilities. An increase/
decrease in the discount rate of 1% would decrease/increase the financial liability by \u00a32 million/\u00a32 million (2023: \u00a35 million/\u00a35 million).
The remaining level 3 liabilities are measured using different valuation methodologies and assumptions, and there are no significant
assumptions or reasonably possible alternatives that would lead to a material change in fair value.
Estimates and judgements
The Group estimates the fair value of identifiable intangible assets acquired at the acquisition date based on forecast profits, taking
account of synergies, derived from existing contractual arrangements. This assessment involves judgement in determining
assumptions relating to\u202fpotential future revenues, profit margins, appropriate discount rates and the expected duration of client
relationships. The difference between the fair value of the consideration and the value of the identifiable assets and liabilities
acquired, including intangible assets, is\u202faccounted for as goodwill.
At each reporting date, the Group applies judgement to determine whether there is any indication that an acquired intangible asset
may be impaired. If any indication exists, a full assessment is undertaken. Goodwill is assessed for impairment on an annual basis.
If the assessment of goodwill or an acquired intangible asset determines that the carrying value exceeds the estimated recoverable
amount\u202fat that time, the assets are written down to their recoverable amount.
The recoverable amount of goodwill is determined using a discounted cash flow model. Any impairment is recognised in the income
statement and cannot be reversed. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to the CGUs that are expected to
benefit from that business combination. For all relevant acquisitions, the Group has determined that the lowest level CGU for Asset
Management acquisitions is the segment. The Benchmark Capital business within Wealth Management is assessed separately from
the rest of Wealth Management. Of the total goodwill, \u00a3995.2 million (2023: \u00a31,012.3 million) is allocated to Asset Management and
\u00a3274.4 million (2023: \u00a3242.7 million) is\u202fallocated to Wealth Management, of which \u00a393.8 million (2023: \u00a381.4 million) relates to
Benchmark Capital.
The recoverable amounts of the CGUs are determined from value-in-use calculations applying a discounted cash flow model using
the Group\u2019s five-year strategic business plan cash flows. The key assumptions on which the Group\u2019s cash flow projections are based
include long-term market growth rates of 2% per annum (2023: 2%), a pre-tax discount rate of 13% (2023: 13%), expected flows and
expected changes to revenue margins. The results of the calculations indicate that goodwill is not impaired.
Reasonable movements (1%) in the growth rate and/or the discount rate would not lead to any impairment. This is due to the
amount of goodwill allocated to the relevant CGU relative to the size of the relevant future profitability estimate. A comparison of
actual results to the projected results used to assess goodwill impairment in prior years shows that the Group would have
recognised no changes (2023: nil) to its goodwill asset in the year as a result of inaccurate projections.
The recoverable amount of acquired intangible assets is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and the updated discounted
valuation of the remaining net residual income stream. Any impairment is recognised in the income statement but may be reversed
if relevant conditions improve.
Estimates and judgements \u2013 fair value measurements
Each instrument has been categorised within one of three levels using a fair value hierarchy (see note 8). Level 1 investments
principally comprise quoted equities, investments in pooled investment vehicles, government debt and exchange-traded derivatives.
Level 2 investments principally comprise debt securities such as commercial paper and certificates of deposit. Level 3 investments
principally comprise investments in private equity funds. There are no assumptions that are individually significant or reasonably
possible alternatives that would lead to a material change in the fair value of these assets.
Estimates and judgements
The timing and amount of settlement of each legal claim or potential claim, regulatory matter and constructive obligation are
uncertain. The Group applies judgement to determine whether a provision is required. The Group performs an assessment of the
timing and amount of each event and reviews this assessment periodically. For some provisions there is greater certainty as the
cash flows have largely been determined. Potential legal claims, regulatory related costs and other obligations to third parties arise
as a consequence of normal business activity. They can arise from actual or alleged breaches of obligations and may be covered by
the Group\u2019s insurance arrangements, but subject to insurance excess. In certain circumstances, legal and regulatory claims can arise
despite there being no error or breach. The Group\u2019s risk management and compliance procedures are designed to mitigate, but are
not able to eliminate, the risk of losses occurring. Where such claims and costs arise there is often uncertainty over whether a
payment will be required and estimation is required in determining the quantum and timing of that payment. As a result, there is
also uncertainty over the timing and amount of any insurance recovery, although this does not change the likelihood of insurance
cover being available, where applicable. The Group makes periodic assessments of all cash flows, including taking external advice
where appropriate, to determine an appropriate provision. Some matters may be settled through commercial negotiation as well as
being covered in whole or in part by the Group\u2019s insurance arrangements. The Group has made provisions based on the reasonable
expectation of likely outflows. The inherent uncertainty in such matters and the results of negotiations and insurance cover may
result in different outcomes.
There are no key judgements or estimates that would result in any additional material provisions being recognised or any material
contingent liabilities being disclosed in the financial statements (2023: none). The provisions included in the financial statements at
31 December 2024 are based on estimates of reasonable ranges of likely outcomes, applying assumptions regarding the probability
of payments being due and the settlement value. The aggregate reasonable ranges have been assessed as not materially different
to the carrying values.
Estimates and judgements
The Group estimates the carrying value of the Scheme by applying judgement to determine the assumptions used to calculate the
valuation of the pension obligation using member data and applying the Scheme rules. The Scheme assets are mainly quoted in an
active market. The sensitivity to those assumptions is set out below. The most significant judgemental assumption relates to
mortality rates, which are inherently uncertain. The Group\u2019s mortality assumptions are based on standard mortality tables with
Continuous Mortality Investigation core projection factors and a long-term rate of mortality improvement of 1.0% (2023: 1.0%)
per annum. An additional adjustment, an \u201cA parameter\u201d set to 0.25% (2023: 0.25%) per annum, allows for the typically higher rate of
mortality improvement among members of the Scheme compared with general population statistics. The latest base mortality tables
have been adopted with no scaling (2023: nil) following a Scheme specific review of the membership data.
The Group reviews its assumptions annually in conjunction with its independent actuaries and considers this adjustment
appropriate given the geographic and demographic profile of Scheme members. Other assumptions for pension obligations are
based in part on current market conditions.
Estimates and judgements
The fair value of certain items of consideration, assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires some estimation. For intangible
assets this estimation required assumptions regarding the level of future management fees that will be earned over the relevant
period. The net impact of changes to these assumptions would be to change the carrying value of individual assets and liabilities
with a corresponding change to goodwill.
(f) Estimates and judgements
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in
conformity with UK-adopted international accounting standards
requires the use of certain significant accounting estimates. It also
requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of
applying the Group\u2019s accounting policies and in determining
whether certain assets and liabilities should be recorded or an
impairment recognised. Any areas involving a higher degree of
judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and
estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements,
are disclosed within the notes and identified under the title
estimates and judgements. Estimates and judgements used in
preparing the financial statements are periodically evaluated and
are based on historical experience and other factors, including
expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable.
The resulting accounting estimates may not equal the related
actual results.
In applying IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, the Group
uses judgement to determine whether its interests in funds (and
other similar entities), including those held by the Life Company,
constitute controlling interests. The Group can have interests in
funds in the form of proprietary investments or through its role as
fund manager. The Group usually deems control to exist where
the Group is the fund manager and its share of total variable
returns exceeds 40% (including from ownership interests and
management and performance-based revenues). The Group
usually deems that control does not exist where the Group\u2019s share
of total variable returns is below 30%. The Group reviews all facts
and circumstances to establish whether the Group has control.
This includes consideration of the purpose and design of the
investee as well as the rights held by other parties to remove the
Group as the fund manager.

Business combinations
Climate risks have been considered in the preparation of these
consolidated financial statements, principally through the
valuation of\u202ffinancial assets and impairment assessments.
Financial assets measured at fair value are principally valued using
traded prices or market observable inputs that incorporate
potential climate risks where appropriate. The valuation of some
financial instruments involves a greater level of judgement or
estimation. In\u202fthese scenarios climate risks are incorporated where
relevant in the relevant assumptions, such as cash flow forecasts.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, credit risk
assessments also include climate risk considerations.
Impairment assessments relating to goodwill and other intangible
assets depend on value in use and discounted cash flow models.
These valuations include climate risks in the relevant assumptions
where appropriate.
The Group\u2019s net operating revenues are typically earned as an
agreed\u202fpercentage of the value of AUM or based on the
performance of the underlying AUM. The potential impact of
climate change on the\u202fGroup\u2019s AUM and future net operating
revenue generation is considered in the principal risks and
uncertainties section of this Annual Report and Accounts.
These considerations did not have a material impact on the
financial reporting judgements and estimates in the current year.
This reflects the conclusion that climate change is not expected to
have a significant impact on the Group\u2019s short-term cash flows
including those considered in the going concern and viability
assessments.

They are generally recognised as the services are received. Certain costs, such as depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortisation of intangible assets, are expensed evenly over the useful life of the asset or relevant contract. Expenses comprise operating expenses, central costs, acquisition costs and related items and restructuring costs. Operating expenses are\u202fthose costs incurred through the operating activities of the Group\u2019s operating segments: Asset Management and Wealth Management. Central costs are those arising from capital and treasury management activities, corporate development and strategy activities and the costs associated with the governance and corporate management of the Group. Acquisition costs and related items include deal costs associated with corporate transactions and costs associated with the integration of acquired businesses and amortisation of acquired intangible assets. The restructuring costs are one-off in nature and have been incurred in reorganising parts of the group to drive cost efficiencies and allow reinvestment in building the skills needed to support the future growth of the business. They principally comprise compensation-related costs and project expenditure. The biggest component of the Group\u2019s total expenses is the cost of employee benefits, as shown below. Other costs primarily consist of accommodation, information technology, marketing and outsourcing costs. Compensation costs are managed to a target operating compensation ratio of between 45% and 49%. Targeting a compensation ratio range provides some flexibility to manage the overall cost base in response to market conditions. Employee benefits expense includes salaries and wages, together with the cost of other benefits provided to employees such as pension and bonuses. The Group makes some performance awards to employees that are deferred over a specified vesting period. Such awards are\u202fexpensed to the income statement over the performance and vesting periods. The Group holds investments that are linked to these performance awards in order to hedge the related exposure. Gains and losses on these investments are netted against the relevant costs in\u202fthe income statement but are presented separately below. Further detail on other employee benefits can be found elsewhere within these financial statements. See note 24 for pension costs and note 25 for compensation that is awarded in Schroders plc shares.

They are generally recognised as the services are received. Certain costs, such as depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortisation of intangible assets, are expensed evenly over the useful life of the asset or relevant contract. Expenses comprise operating expenses, central costs, acquisition costs and related items and restructuring costs. Operating expenses are\u202fthose costs incurred through the operating activities of the Group\u2019s operating segments: Asset Management and Wealth Management. Central costs are those arising from capital and treasury management activities, corporate development and strategy activities and the costs associated with the governance and corporate management of the Group. Acquisition costs and related items include deal costs associated with corporate transactions and costs associated with the integration of acquired businesses and amortisation of acquired intangible assets. The restructuring costs are one-off in nature and have been incurred in reorganising parts of the group to drive cost efficiencies and allow reinvestment in building the skills needed to support the future growth of the business. They principally comprise compensation-related costs and project expenditure. The biggest component of the Group\u2019s total expenses is the cost of employee benefits, as shown below. Other costs primarily consist of accommodation, information technology, marketing and outsourcing costs. Compensation costs are managed to a target operating compensation ratio of between 45% and 49%. Targeting a compensation ratio range provides some flexibility to manage the overall cost base in response to market conditions. Employee benefits expense includes salaries and wages, together with the cost of other benefits provided to employees such as pension and bonuses. The Group makes some performance awards to employees that are deferred over a specified vesting period. Such awards are\u202fexpensed to the income statement over the performance and vesting periods. The Group holds investments that are linked to these performance awards in order to hedge the related exposure. Gains and losses on these investments are netted against the relevant costs in\u202fthe income statement but are presented separately below. Further detail on other employee benefits can be found elsewhere within these financial statements. See note 24 for pension costs and note 25 for compensation that is awarded in Schroders plc shares.

Estimates and judgements The calculation of the Group\u2019s tax charge involves a degree of estimation and judgement. Liabilities relating to open and judgemental matters, including those in relation to deferred taxes, are based on the Group\u2019s assessment of the most likely outcome based on the information available. As a result, certain tax amounts are based on estimates using factors that are relevant to the specific judgement. The Group engages constructively and transparently with tax authorities with a view to early resolution of any uncertain tax matters. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts provided, such differences will impact the tax charge in a future period. Such estimates are based on assumptions made on the probability of potential challenge within certain jurisdictions and the possible outcome based on relevant facts and circumstances, including local tax laws. There was no individual judgemental component of the tax expense that was material to the Group results when taking into account the likely range of potential outcomes (2023: none). 14 Deferred tax Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent amounts of tax that will become recoverable and payable in future accounting periods. They\u202farise as a result of temporary differences, where the time at which profits and losses are recognised for tax purposes differs from the time at which the relevant transaction is recorded. A deferred tax asset represents a tax reduction that is expected to arise in a future period based on past transactions. A deferred tax liability represents taxes that will become payable in a future period as a result of current or prior\u202fyear transactions. Deferred tax liabilities also arise on certain acquisitions where the amortisation of the acquired intangible asset does not result in a tax deduction. The deferred tax liability is established on acquisition and is released to the income statement to match the intangible asset amortisation. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the year-end date.

Following the 2021 Budget, the UK tax rate increased to 25% from April 2023. This results in a tax rate of 25% applicable to the UK Group
for 2024 (2023: blended tax rate of 23.5%).
Included in the deferred tax asset is an asset relating to UK tax deductions for share-based remuneration which is dependent on the
prices of\u202fthe Company\u2019s ordinary shares at the time the awards are exercised.
A deferred tax asset of \u00a310.5 million (2023: \u00a39.9 million) relating to \u00a342.4 million of realised capital losses has not been recognised as
there is insufficient evidence that there will be sufficient taxable gains in the future against which the deferred tax asset could be\u202futilised.
A deferred tax asset of \u00a324.4 million (2023: \u00a328.0 million) relating to \u00a3103.2 million of losses, including unrealised capital losses, and
other temporary differences has not\u202fbeen recognised as there is insufficient evidence that there will be sufficient taxable profits against
which these losses and temporary differences can be utilised.
The Group has applied the mandatory IAS 12 temporary exemption from the recognition and disclosure of deferred taxes arising from
implementation of the OECD\u2019s Pillar Two model rules.
After offsetting deferred tax assets and liabilities where appropriate within territories, the net deferred tax asset comprises:

The Group initially recognises all financial assets at fair value. The Group subsequently measures each financial asset at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) or amortised cost. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability between market participants. Amortised cost is the amount determined based on moving the initial fair value to the maturity value on a systematic basis using the effective interest rate, taking account of repayment dates and initial expected premiums or discounts. Financial assets at amortised cost Financial assets are measured at amortised cost when their contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest and they are held within a business model designed to collect cash flows. This classification typically applies to the Group\u2019s loans and advances, trade receivables and some debt securities held by the Group\u2019s Wealth Management entities. The carrying value of amortised cost financial assets is adjusted for impairment under the expected credit loss (ECL) model. Movements in the ECL provision are recognised in other operating income in the income statement (see note 19). Financial assets at FVOCI Financial assets are measured at FVOCI when their contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest and they are held within a business model designed to collect cash flows and to sell assets. This classification applies to certain debt securities, principally within the Group\u2019s Wealth Management entities. Impairment is recognised for debt securities classified as FVOCI under the ECL model. Movements in the ECL provision are recognised in other operating income in the income statement (see note 19). Unrealised gains and losses on debt securities classified as financial assets at FVOCI are recorded in other comprehensive income. Cumulative gains and losses are transferred to the income statement if the asset is sold or otherwise realised. Interest earned on FVOCI assets is recognised using the effective interest method and recorded as interest in the income statement. Financial assets at FVTPL All other financial assets are measured at FVTPL. Net gains and losses are presented in the income statement based on the substance of the\u202ftransaction. Net gains and losses on co-investments are presented within other operating income; net gains and losses on the Group\u2019s investment and seed capital are presented within net gain/(loss) on financial instruments and other income; and net gains and losses on investments that are held to hedge deferred employee cash awards are presented within operating expenses (see note 3). This separate presentation provides more relevant information about the applicable components of the Group\u2019s income statement. Financial liabilities The Group\u2019s financial liabilities principally comprise deposits by Wealth Management clients and banking counterparties. They also include derivatives (see note 18) to support its Group capital strategies, activities within the Wealth Management banking book and client facilitation. Financial liabilities also arise from obligations in respect of carried interest, contingent consideration and other liabilities arising from acquisitions completed by the Group, and third party interests in consolidated funds. The Group initially recognises all financial liabilities at fair value. These are subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value. Financial liabilities at amortised cost The majority of the Group\u2019s financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost and this typically applies to the Group\u2019s Wealth Management client accounts, banking deposits and trade payables. Financial liabilities at FVTPL Financial liabilities are measured at FVTPL when this reduces an accounting mismatch or when otherwise required by the accounting standards. This classification typically applies to financial obligations in respect of carried interest, third party interests in consolidated funds (see Basis of preparation on page 142) and contingent consideration. Net gains and losses are presented in the income statement based on the substance of the instrument. Net gains and losses on financial obligations in respect of carried interest are presented within cost of sales; and net gains and losses on contingent consideration are presented within acquisition costs and related items. This separate presentation provides more relevant information about the applicable components of the Group\u2019s income statement. Liabilities to purchase subsidiary shares Financial liabilities in relation to equity transactions arise on certain acquisitions where the Group has a liability to purchase the remaining interest in a subsidiary that is not wholly owned by the Group (see Basis of preparation on page 142).

Estimates and judgements The Group holds financial instruments that are measured at fair value. The fair value of financial instruments may be derived from readily available sources or may require some estimation. The degree of estimation involved depends on the individual financial instrument and is reflected in the fair value hierarchy below. Judgements may include determining which valuation approach to apply as well as determining appropriate assumptions. For level 2 and 3 financial instruments, the judgement applied by the Group gives rise to an estimate of fair value. The approach to determining the fair value estimate of level 2 and 3 financial instruments is set out below. The fair value levels are based on the degree to which the fair value is observable and are defined as follows: \u2013 Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and principally comprise investments in pooled investment vehicles, quoted equities, national government debt and exchange-traded derivatives. \u2013 Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs that are directly or indirectly observable from market data, other than quoted prices included in level 1. The Group\u2019s level 2 financial instruments principally comprise holdings in pooled investment vehicles, foreign exchange contracts, corporate and non-national government debt securities and asset and mortgage backed securities. Valuation techniques may include using a broker quote in an inactive market or an evaluated price based on a compilation of primarily observable market information utilising information readily available via external sources. For funds not priced on a daily basis, the net asset value that is issued monthly or quarterly is used. \u2013 Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include significant inputs that are not based on observable market data. The Group\u2019s level 3 financial assets principally comprise holdings in pooled investment vehicles, including private equity funds, holdings in property investment vehicles that operate hotel businesses, and direct investments held via consolidated funds. The pooled investment vehicles and direct investments are measured in accordance with International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation Guidelines 2022 using the valuation technique that is most suitable to the applicable investment. The property investment vehicles are valued based on the expected future cash flows that could be generated from the underlying hotel businesses. Given the application of different valuation techniques, and as the investments are not homogenous in nature, there are no significant assumptions or reasonably possible alternatives that would lead to a material change in fair\u202fvalue. The Group\u2019s financial liabilities categorised as level 3 principally consist of third-party liabilities related to carried interest arrangements, obligations arising from contingent consideration and other liabilities to purchase the remaining interest in acquired subsidiaries. Information about the estimates and judgements made in determining the fair value of carried interest payable is set out in note 2. Liabilities in respect of options to purchase the remaining interest in certain subsidiaries require judgement in determining the appropriate assumptions to be applied in the estimation of the fair value. The amount that will ultimately be paid in relation to an option is dependent on the future earnings of the subsidiary and may be subject to a cap over the enterprise value. In estimating the liability, the assumptions principally relate to the future earnings of the business, the market multiple applied to the earnings and the rate applied to discount the liability back to present value. The future earnings of the applicable subsidiaries are estimated based on cash flow forecasts specific to the individual business and consequently there is no one assumption that is individually material to the valuation. Market multiples are applied to the forecast earnings to estimate the fair value of the business. Market multiples reflect the nature of the business and take into account observable market transactions where appropriate. Market multiples range from 10 to 15 times earnings. An increase/decrease in market multiples of one would increase/decrease the financial liability by \u00a37 million/\u00a37 million (2023: \u00a310 million/\u00a310 million). Discount rates between 11% and 14% have been used to discount these liabilities. An increase/ decrease in the discount rate of 1% would decrease/increase the financial liability by \u00a32 million/\u00a32 million (2023: \u00a35 million/\u00a35 million). The remaining level 3 liabilities are measured using different valuation methodologies and assumptions, and there are no significant assumptions or reasonably possible alternatives that would lead to a material change in fair value. 9 Issued debt

On 18 April 2024, the Group issued \u00a3250.0 million of subordinated notes, which are eligible as Tier 2 regulatory capital, with a maturity date of 18 July 2034. These notes are financial instruments measured at amortised cost and bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.346% per annum to 18 July 2029, and at a reset rate thereafter. The reset rate would be determined with reference to the then current 5-year gilt yield and the original reoffer spread of 225 basis points. The Group has the option to redeem all of the notes between 18 April 2029 and 18 July 2029. The fair value of the notes at 31 December 2024 was \u00a3259.4 million and they would be categorised as level 2 within the fair value hierarchy (see note 8). 18 Derivative contracts (a) The Group\u2019s use of derivatives The Group holds derivatives for risk management, client facilitation and within its consolidated structured entities to provide exposure to market returns. The Group most commonly uses forward foreign exchange contracts, where it agrees to buy or sell specified amounts of a named currency at a future date, allowing the Group to effectively fix exchange rates so that it can avoid unpredictable gains and losses on financial instruments in foreign currency assets and liabilities. The Group uses futures, total return swaps and credit default swaps to hedge market-related gains and losses on its seed capital investments where the purpose of investing is to help establish a new product rather than gain additional market exposure. The Group designates certain derivatives as hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation. In these scenarios, and where relevant conditions are met, hedge accounting is applied and the Group formally documents the relationship between the derivative and any hedged item, its risk management objectives and its strategy for undertaking the various hedging transactions. It also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are effective in offsetting changes in the fair value of hedged items. In respect of hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation, the portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge is recognised directly in other comprehensive income. The Group\u2019s net investment hedges are generally fully effective, but any ineffective portion that may arise is recognised in the income statement. On disposal of the foreign operation, together with the hedged gain or loss, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument is transferred to the income statement. Risk management: The Group actively seeks to limit and manage its exposures to risk where those exposures are not desired by the Group. This may take the form of unwanted exposures to a particular currency, type of interest rate or other price risk. By entering into derivative contracts, the Group is able to mitigate or eliminate such exposures. The principal risks that the Group faces through such use of derivative contracts are credit risk and liquidity risk. Client facilitation: The Group\u2019s Wealth Management entities are involved in providing portfolio management, banking and investment advisory services, primarily to private clients. In carrying out this business, they transact as agent or as principal in financial assets and liabilities (including derivatives) in order to facilitate client portfolio requirements. Wealth Management\u2019s policy is to hedge, as appropriate, market risk on its client facilitation positions. This does not eliminate credit risk. For details of how the Group manages its exposure to credit risk, see below and note 19. (b) Derivatives used by the Group Forwards are contractual obligations to buy or sell foreign currency on a future date at a specified exchange rate. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the fair value of the contracts. Currency, interest rate, total return and credit default swaps are commitments to exchange one set of cash flows for another. Swaps result in an\u202feconomic exchange of currencies, interest rates or total returns (for example, fixed rate for floating rate) or a combination of these (i.e. cross-currency interest rate swaps). No exchange of principal takes place, except in the case of certain currency swaps. The Group\u2019s credit risk represents the potential cost of replacing the swap contracts if counterparties fail to perform their obligations. This risk is monitored on an ongoing basis with reference to the current fair value, the proportion of the notional amount of the contracts, and the liquidity of the market. To control the level of credit risk taken, the Group assesses counterparties in accordance with its internal policies and procedures. Futures contracts are standardised contracts to buy or sell specified assets for an agreed price at a specified future date. Contracts are negotiated at a futures exchange, which acts as an intermediary between the two parties. For futures contracts, the maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the fair value of the contracts. The fair value of derivative instruments becomes favourable (assets) or unfavourable (liabilities) as a result of fluctuations in market interest rates, indices, foreign exchange rates and other relevant variables relative to their terms. The aggregate contractual amount of derivative financial instruments held, the extent to which instruments are favourable or unfavourable, and thus the aggregate fair values of derivative financial assets and liabilities can fluctuate significantly from time to time.

Forward foreign exchange contracts. 19 Financial instrument risk management The Group Capital Committee is responsible for the management of the Group\u2019s capital and sets objectives for how it is deployed. This note explains how the Group manages its capital, setting out the nature of the risks the Group faces as a result of its operations, and how these risks are quantified and managed. The Group is exposed to different forms of financial instrument risk including: (i) the risk that money owed to the Group will not be received (credit risk); (ii) the risk that the Group may not have sufficient cash available to pay its creditors as they fall due (liquidity risk); and (iii) the risk that the value of assets will fluctuate as a result of movements in factors such as market prices, interest rates and foreign exchange rates (market risk). The management of such risks is embedded in managerial responsibilities fundamental to the wellbeing of the Group. The Group\u2019s primary exposure to financial instrument risk is derived from the financial instruments that it holds as principal. In addition, due to the nature of the business, the Group\u2019s exposure extends to the impact on investment management and other fees that are determined on the basis of a percentage of AUM and are therefore impacted by the financial instrument risk exposure of our clients \u2013 the secondary exposure. This note deals only with the direct or primary exposure of the risks from the Group\u2019s holding of financial instruments. Disclosures relating to unit-linked liabilities and assets backing unit-linked liabilities are included in note 15. (a) Capital The Group is supervised in the United Kingdom (UK) on a consolidated basis by the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA). The PRA sets capital requirements for the Group and monitors the Group\u2019s capital adequacy on an ongoing basis. Regulated subsidiaries within the Group are supervised by their local regulators who set and monitor local capital adequacy requirements. The Group\u2019s approach to capital management is to maintain a strong capital position to enable it to invest in the future of the Group, in line with its strategy, and to support the risks inherent in conducting its business. Capital management is an important part of the Group\u2019s risk management framework and is underpinned by the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP). The ICAAP considers the relevant current and future risks to the business and the capital considered necessary to support these risks. The Group actively monitors its capital base to ensure it maintains sufficient and appropriate capital resources to cover the relevant risks to the business and to meet consolidated and local regulatory and working capital requirements. At 31 December 2024, the Group had total regulatory own funds of \u00a32,396 million (2023: \u00a32,073 million), consisting of Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) and Tier 2 capital (2023: consisting entirely of CET1). The Group\u2019s overall regulatory capital requirement was \u00a31,477 million (2023: \u00a31,443 million). Therefore, at 31 December 2024 the Group had surplus capital of \u00a3919 million (2023: \u00a3630 million). The Group\u2019s capital ratio was 20.9% (2023: 18.6%).
The Group\u2019s overall capital requirement comprises a Total Capital Requirement (TCR), which was \u00a31,085 million as at 31 December 2024
(2023: \u00a31,059 million), and a capital requirement in respect of regulatory buffers and our insurance companies, which was \u00a3392 million as
at 31 December 2024 (2023: \u00a3384 million). The TCR is the minimum amount of capital that the Group is required to maintain at all times. The tables below provide a detailed breakdown of the Group\u2019s capital in accordance with IFRS 9:

1. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are mandatorily measured at fair value through profit or loss. Cash and cash equivalents at fair value through profit or loss are interests in money market funds and are all level 1. Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include \u00a310,343.6 million of liabilities that are designated at fair value through profit or loss and \u00a360.3 million that are mandatorily measured at fair value through profit or loss.
(b) Credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk
The Group is exposed to credit, liquidity and market risk as a result of the financial instruments it holds. Settlement of financial
instruments (on both a principal and agency basis) also gives rise to operational risk. The Group\u2019s risk management framework is critical
to effective management of these risks and considerable resources are dedicated to this area. Risk management is the direct
responsibility of the Board, with responsibility for oversight delegated to the Audit and Risk Committee. The Group applies the three lines
of defence model to risk management, which includes financial instrument risk. More details on the risk management framework and
approach are set out in the Risk Management report and the Audit and Risk Committee report on pages 26 and 54 respectively.
(i) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty to a financial instrument, loan or commitment will cause the Group financial loss by failing to
discharge its obligations. For this purpose, the impact on fair value of a credit loss arising from credit spread price changes in a portfolio
of investments is excluded. This risk is addressed within pricing risk.
The Group has exposure to credit risk from its normal activities where it is exposed to the risk that a counterparty will be unable to pay
amounts when due. The Group carefully manages its exposure to credit risk by monitoring exposures to individual counterparties and
sectors, monitoring counterparties\u2019 creditworthiness, taking collateral and reducing settlement risk where possible and approving
lending policies that specify the type of acceptable collateral and lending margins. The Group\u2019s maximum exposure to credit risk is
represented by the gross carrying value of its financial assets.
Externally published credit ratings are indicators of the level of credit risk associated with a counterparty. A breakdown of the Group\u2019s
relevant financial assets held with rated and unrated counterparties is set out below:

Expected credit losses are calculated on all of the Group\u2019s financial assets that are measured at amortised cost and all debt instruments
that are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. Factors considered in determining whether a default has taken
place include how many days past the due date a payment is, deterioration in the credit quality of a counterparty, and knowledge of
specific events that could influence a counterparty\u2019s ability to pay.
A three stage model is used for calculating expected credit losses, which requires financial assets to be assessed as:
\u2022 Performing (stage 1) \u2013 financial assets where there has been no significant increase in credit risk since original recognition;
\u2022 Under-performing (stage 2) \u2013 financial assets where there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition,
but no default; or,
\u2022 Non-performing (stage 3) \u2013 financial assets that are in default.
For financial assets in stage 1, expected credit losses are calculated based on the credit losses that are expected to be incurred over the
following 12-month period. For financial assets in stages 2 and 3, expected credit losses are calculated based on credit losses expected
to be incurred over the life of the instrument. The Group applies the simplified approach to calculate expected credit losses for trade and
other receivables. Under this approach, instruments are not categorised into three stages and expected credit losses are calculated
based on the life of the instrument.
Wealth Management activities
All client credit requests are presented to the relevant Wealth Management approval authorities and counterparty exposures are
monitored daily against limits. Loans, overdrafts and advances to clients, as well as certain derivative positions, are secured on a range of
assets including real estate (both residential and commercial), cash, client portfolios and investment bonds.
The Group does not usually provide loans, overdrafts or advances to clients on an unsecured basis. Where disposal of non-cash
collateral is required, in the event of default, the terms and conditions relevant to the specific contract and country will apply. Portfolios
held as collateral are marked to market daily and positions compared to clients\u2019 exposures. Credit limits are set following an assessment
of the market value and lending value of each type of collateral, depending on the perceived risk associated with the collateral. Clients
are contacted if these limits are expected to be or are breached, or if collateral is not sufficient to cover the outstanding exposure.
The Group also holds collateral on some short-term advances to banks through reverse repurchase agreements. The collateral accepted
includes certain investment-grade securities that can be sold or repledged without default of the provider. At 31 December 2024, the fair
value of collateral that could be sold or repledged but had not been, relating solely to these arrangements, was \u00a31,526.6 million (2023:
\u00a31,107.6 million).
Policies covering various counterparty and market risk limits are set and monitored by the relevant Wealth Management asset and
liability management committees. All instruments held within the Wealth Management treasury book have an investment-grade credit
rating.
Wealth Management takes a conservative approach to its treasury investments, placing them with, or purchasing debt securities issued
by, UK and overseas banks and corporates, central banks, supranational banks and sovereigns.
Expected credit losses on financial assets at amortised cost within the Wealth Management entities at 31 December 2024 were \u00a32.2
million (2023: \u00a31.0 million). There was one (2023: one) non-performing (stage 3) loan of \u00a36.9 million (2023: \u00a36.2 million) giving rise to \u00a31.8
million expected credit losses (2023: \u00a30.5 million). All other financial assets at amortised cost (excluding trade and other receivables to
which the three stage model is not applied) were performing (stage 1) (2023: same).
Expected credit losses on financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income within the Wealth Management entities
at 31 December 2024 were \u00a30.4 million (2023: \u00a30.2 million). All financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income were
performing (stage 1) (2023: same).
Other activities
Fee debtors and other receivables arise as a result of the Group\u2019s asset management activities and amounts are monitored regularly.
Historically, default levels have been insignificant and, unless a client has withdrawn its funds, there is an ongoing relationship between
the Group and the client.
Fee debtors past due but not in default as at 31 December 2024 were \u00a354.6 million (2023: \u00a350.8 million), the majority of which were less
than 90 days past due (2023: less than 90 days).
The Group seeks to manage its exposure to credit risk arising from debt securities and derivatives within the investment portfolio by
adopting a conservative approach and through ongoing credit analysis, and it may hedge some of the credit risk with credit default
swaps. Corporate bond portfolios, when in place, have an investment-grade mandate, and exposure to sub-investment-grade debt is
low.
Most derivative positions, other than forward foreign exchange contracts and total return swaps, are taken in exchange-traded securities
where there is minimal credit risk. Forward foreign exchange positions generally have a maturity between one and three months.
The Group\u2019s cash and cash equivalents in the non-Wealth Management entities are held primarily in current accounts, on deposit with
well-rated banks, or invested in money market or similar funds.
Expected credit losses on financial assets at amortised cost within non-Wealth Management entities at 31 December 2024 were \u00a31.6
million (2023: \u00a30.6 million). Debt securities included \u00a324.0 million of under-performing (stage 2) securities (2023: none) giving rise to \u00a31.4
million of expected credit losses. All other financial assets at amortised cost (excluding trade and other receivables to which the three
stage model is not applied) were performing (stage 1) (2023: same).
(ii) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group cannot meet its obligations as they fall due or can only do so at a cost. The Group has a clearly
defined liquidity risk management framework in place in the form of a Consolidated Group Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment
Process (ILAAP). The Group policy is that its subsidiaries should trade solvently, comply with regulatory liquidity requirements and have
access to adequate liquidity for all activities undertaken in the normal course of business. As part of its ILAAP, the Group performs stress
testing to confirm that sufficient liquidity is available to cover severe but plausible stress events.
Wealth Management activities
The principal liquidity risk in the Group\u2019s Wealth Management business arises as a result of its banking activities, where the timing of
cash flows from liabilities relating to client accounts can be impacted by client action. The objective of the Group\u2019s liquidity policy is to
maintain sufficient liquidity within the relevant entities to meet regulatory and prudential requirements, and to cover cash flow
imbalances and fluctuations in funding and the timely repayment of funds to depositors.
Liquidity positions are actively monitored against both regulatory and internal limits and cash flows are managed so that sufficient
liquidity is available to cover potential liquidity risks.

Other activities
The Group\u2019s exposure to liquidity risk outside its Wealth Management activities is low. Excluding the Life Company and consolidated
funds, the Asset Management segment along with the Group\u2019s capital and treasury management activities together hold cash and
cash\u202fequivalents of \u00a3820.0 million (2023: \u00a3832.9 million). Financial liabilities relating to other operating entities are \u00a3354.9 million (2023:
\u00a3373.2 million).
The Group has a committed revolving credit facility of \u00a3850.0 million (2023: \u00a3850.0 million), which expires on 7 November 2029. No
money was drawn down under the facility during 2024 (2023: maximum amount drawn down was \u00a3180.0 million).
(iii) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the value of assets will fluctuate as a result of movements in factors such as market prices, interest rates and
foreign exchange rates.
Pricing risk
Pricing risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market prices
other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk.
In respect of financial instrument risk, the Group\u2019s exposure to pricing risk is principally through investments held in seed and co-
investment capital and deferred employee compensation in the form of fund awards.
The Group does not hedge exposures to pricing risk except in relation to seed capital, where it is practical to do so, and in respect of
deferred employee compensation awards, where these can be matched by interests in funds managed by the Group. Where financial
instruments are held to hedge deferred compensation awards, movements in the fair value of the asset are normally offset by changes
in the amounts payable to employees (see note 3).
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest\u202frates.
Wealth Management activities
In Wealth Management, interest rate risk is monitored on a daily basis against policies and limits set by the relevant risk committee.
Interest rate risk is managed within set limits by matching asset and liability positions and through the use of interest rate swaps.
Sensitivity-based and stress-based models are used for monitoring interest rate risk. These models assess the impact of a prescribed
shift in interest rates and the potential impact of severe but plausible stress scenarios.
Other activities
Cash held by the other operating companies is not normally expected to be placed on deposit for longer than three months and is not
exposed to significant interest rate risk.
The Group\u2019s capital can include investments in corporate investment-grade bonds managed by the Group\u2019s fixed income fund managers.
The market risk (including interest rate risk) exposure of these investments is actively monitored against limits set by the Board.
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in
foreign exchange rates.
Wealth Management activities
In Wealth Management, foreign exchange risk is monitored each day against policies and limits set by the relevant risk committees.
Foreign exchange risk is managed within set limits by the treasury departments using spot, forward and foreign exchange swap contracts.
Other activities
The Group\u2019s policy in relation to foreign exchange risks arising from revenue, expenditure and capital currency exposure from its Asset
Management activities is generally not to hedge. The Group\u2019s revenue is earned and expenditure incurred in many currencies and the
resulting exposure is considered to be a normal part of the Group\u2019s business activities.
The Group also has exposure to foreign currency on financial instruments not held in the functional currency of entities which resulted in a
\u00a321.4 million gain in the income statement (2023: \u00a319.0 million gain) and exposure arising from net investments in foreign operations which
resulted in a \u00a354.4 million loss in other comprehensive income (2023: \u00a358.3 million loss). The Group uses forward foreign exchange contracts
with third parties to mitigate some of these exposures. The gain or loss on these contracts is included in the income statement or statement of
other comprehensive income, as\u202fappropriate. The use of such instruments is subject to approval by the Group Capital Committee.

1. The underlying assumption is that there is one variable increase/decrease with all other variables held constant.
2. Assumes that the fair value of assets and liabilities will not be affected by a change in interest rates.
3. Assumes that changes in the FTSE All-Share Index correlate to changes in the fair value of the Group\u2019s equity investments.
The reasonable changes in variables will have no impact on any other components of equity. These sensitivities concern only the
direct impact on financial instruments and exclude indirect impacts on fee income and certain costs that may be affected by changes
in the variable. The changes used in the sensitivity analysis were provided by the Group\u2019s Global Economics team, which determines
reasonable assumptions.

The Group initially recognises all financial assets at fair value. The Group subsequently measures each financial asset at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) or amortised cost. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability between market participants. Amortised cost is the amount determined based on moving the initial fair value to the maturity value on a systematic basis using the effective interest rate, taking account of repayment dates and initial expected premiums or discounts. Financial assets at amortised cost Financial assets are measured at amortised cost when their contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest and they are held within a business model designed to collect cash flows. This classification typically applies to the Group\u2019s loans and advances, trade receivables and some debt securities held by the Group\u2019s Wealth Management entities. The carrying value of amortised cost financial assets is adjusted for impairment under the expected credit loss (ECL) model. Movements in the ECL provision are recognised in other operating income in the income statement (see note 19). Financial assets at FVOCI Financial assets are measured at FVOCI when their contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest and they are held within a business model designed to collect cash flows and to sell assets. This classification applies to certain debt securities, principally within the Group\u2019s Wealth Management entities. Impairment is recognised for debt securities classified as FVOCI under the ECL model. Movements in the ECL provision are recognised in other operating income in the income statement (see note 19). Unrealised gains and losses on debt securities classified as financial assets at FVOCI are recorded in other comprehensive income. Cumulative gains and losses are transferred to the income statement if the asset is sold or otherwise realised. Interest earned on FVOCI assets is recognised using the effective interest method and recorded as interest in the income statement. Financial assets at FVTPL All other financial assets are measured at FVTPL. Net gains and losses are presented in the income statement based on the substance of the\u202ftransaction. Net gains and losses on co-investments are presented within other operating income; net gains and losses on the Group\u2019s investment and seed capital are presented within net gain/(loss) on financial instruments and other income; and net gains and losses on investments that are held to hedge deferred employee cash awards are presented within operating expenses (see note 3). This separate presentation provides more relevant information about the applicable components of the Group\u2019s income statement. Financial liabilities The Group\u2019s financial liabilities principally comprise deposits by Wealth Management clients and banking counterparties. They also include derivatives (see note 18) to support its Group capital strategies, activities within the Wealth Management banking book and client facilitation. Financial liabilities also arise from obligations in respect of carried interest, contingent consideration and other liabilities arising from acquisitions completed by the Group, and third party interests in consolidated funds. The Group initially recognises all financial liabilities at fair value. These are subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value. Financial liabilities at amortised cost The majority of the Group\u2019s financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost and this typically applies to the Group\u2019s Wealth Management client accounts, banking deposits and trade payables. Financial liabilities at FVTPL Financial liabilities are measured at FVTPL when this reduces an accounting mismatch or when otherwise required by the accounting standards. This classification typically applies to financial obligations in respect of carried interest, third party interests in consolidated funds (see Basis of preparation on page 142) and contingent consideration. Net gains and losses are presented in the income statement based on the substance of the instrument. Net gains and losses on financial obligations in respect of carried interest are presented within cost of sales; and net gains and losses on contingent consideration are presented within acquisition costs and related items. This separate presentation provides more relevant information about the applicable components of the Group\u2019s income statement. Liabilities to purchase subsidiary shares Financial liabilities in relation to equity transactions arise on certain acquisitions where the Group has a liability to purchase the remaining interest in a subsidiary that is not wholly owned by the Group (see Basis of preparation on page 142).

Estimates and judgements The Group holds financial instruments that are measured at fair value. The fair value of financial instruments may be derived from readily available sources or may require some estimation. The degree of estimation involved depends on the individual financial instrument and is reflected in the fair value hierarchy below. Judgements may include determining which valuation approach to apply as well as determining appropriate assumptions. For level 2 and 3 financial instruments, the judgement applied by the Group gives rise to an estimate of fair value. The approach to determining the fair value estimate of level 2 and 3 financial instruments is set out below. The fair value levels are based on the degree to which the fair value is observable and are defined as follows: \u2013 Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and principally comprise investments in pooled investment vehicles, quoted equities, national government debt and exchange-traded derivatives. \u2013 Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs that are directly or indirectly observable from market data, other than quoted prices included in level 1. The Group\u2019s level 2 financial instruments principally comprise holdings in pooled investment vehicles, foreign exchange contracts, corporate and non-national government debt securities and asset and mortgage backed securities. Valuation techniques may include using a broker quote in an inactive market or an evaluated price based on a compilation of primarily observable market information utilising information readily available via external sources. For funds not priced on a daily basis, the net asset value that is issued monthly or quarterly is used. \u2013 Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include significant inputs that are not based on observable market data. The Group\u2019s level 3 financial assets principally comprise holdings in pooled investment vehicles, including private equity funds, holdings in property investment vehicles that operate hotel businesses, and direct investments held via consolidated funds. The pooled investment vehicles and direct investments are measured in accordance with International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation Guidelines 2022 using the valuation technique that is most suitable to the applicable investment. The property investment vehicles are valued based on the expected future cash flows that could be generated from the underlying hotel businesses. Given the application of different valuation techniques, and as the investments are not homogenous in nature, there are no significant assumptions or reasonably possible alternatives that would lead to a material change in fair\u202fvalue. The Group\u2019s financial liabilities categorised as level 3 principally consist of third-party liabilities related to carried interest arrangements, obligations arising from contingent consideration and other liabilities to purchase the remaining interest in acquired subsidiaries. Information about the estimates and judgements made in determining the fair value of carried interest payable is set out in note 2. Liabilities in respect of options to purchase the remaining interest in certain subsidiaries require judgement in determining the appropriate assumptions to be applied in the estimation of the fair value. The amount that will ultimately be paid in relation to an option is dependent on the future earnings of the subsidiary and may be subject to a cap over the enterprise value. In estimating the liability, the assumptions principally relate to the future earnings of the business, the market multiple applied to the earnings and the rate applied to discount the liability back to present value. The future earnings of the applicable subsidiaries are estimated based on cash flow forecasts specific to the individual business and consequently there is no one assumption that is individually material to the valuation. Market multiples are applied to the forecast earnings to estimate the fair value of the business. Market multiples reflect the nature of the business and take into account observable market transactions where appropriate. Market multiples range from 10 to 15 times earnings. An increase/decrease in market multiples of one would increase/decrease the financial liability by \u00a37 million/\u00a37 million (2023: \u00a310 million/\u00a310 million). Discount rates between 11% and 14% have been used to discount these liabilities. An increase/ decrease in the discount rate of 1% would decrease/increase the financial liability by \u00a32 million/\u00a32 million (2023: \u00a35 million/\u00a35 million). The remaining level 3 liabilities are measured using different valuation methodologies and assumptions, and there are no significant assumptions or reasonably possible alternatives that would lead to a material change in fair value.

The Group initially recognises all financial assets at fair value. The Group subsequently measures each financial asset at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) or amortised cost. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability between market participants. Amortised cost is the amount determined based on moving the initial fair value to the maturity value on a systematic basis using the effective interest rate, taking account of repayment dates and initial expected premiums or discounts. Financial assets at amortised cost Financial assets are measured at amortised cost when their contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest and they are held within a business model designed to collect cash flows. This classification typically applies to the Group\u2019s loans and advances, trade receivables and some debt securities held by the Group\u2019s Wealth Management entities. The carrying value of amortised cost financial assets is adjusted for impairment under the expected credit loss (ECL) model. Movements in the ECL provision are recognised in other operating income in the income statement (see note 19). Financial assets at FVOCI Financial assets are measured at FVOCI when their contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest and they are held within a business model designed to collect cash flows and to sell assets. This classification applies to certain debt securities, principally within the Group\u2019s Wealth Management entities. Impairment is recognised for debt securities classified as FVOCI under the ECL model. Movements in the ECL provision are recognised in other operating income in the income statement (see note 19). Unrealised gains and losses on debt securities classified as financial assets at FVOCI are recorded in other comprehensive income. Cumulative gains and losses are transferred to the income statement if the asset is sold or otherwise realised. Interest earned on FVOCI assets is recognised using the effective interest method and recorded as interest in the income statement. Financial assets at FVTPL All other financial assets are measured at FVTPL. Net gains and losses are presented in the income statement based on the substance of the\u202ftransaction. Net gains and losses on co-investments are presented within other operating income; net gains and losses on the Group\u2019s investment and seed capital are presented within net gain/(loss) on financial instruments and other income; and net gains and losses on investments that are held to hedge deferred employee cash awards are presented within operating expenses (see note 3). This separate presentation provides more relevant information about the applicable components of the Group\u2019s income statement. Financial liabilities The Group\u2019s financial liabilities principally comprise deposits by Wealth Management clients and banking counterparties. They also include derivatives (see note 18) to support its Group capital strategies, activities within the Wealth Management banking book and client facilitation. Financial liabilities also arise from obligations in respect of carried interest, contingent consideration and other liabilities arising from acquisitions completed by the Group, and third party interests in consolidated funds. The Group initially recognises all financial liabilities at fair value. These are subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value. Financial liabilities at amortised cost The majority of the Group\u2019s financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost and this typically applies to the Group\u2019s Wealth Management client accounts, banking deposits and trade payables. Financial liabilities at FVTPL Financial liabilities are measured at FVTPL when this reduces an accounting mismatch or when otherwise required by the accounting standards. This classification typically applies to financial obligations in respect of carried interest, third party interests in consolidated funds (see Basis of preparation on page 142) and contingent consideration. Net gains and losses are presented in the income statement based on the substance of the instrument. Net gains and losses on financial obligations in respect of carried interest are presented within cost of sales; and net gains and losses on contingent consideration are presented within acquisition costs and related items. This separate presentation provides more relevant information about the applicable components of the Group\u2019s income statement. Liabilities to purchase subsidiary shares Financial liabilities in relation to equity transactions arise on certain acquisitions where the Group has a liability to purchase the remaining interest in a subsidiary that is not wholly owned by the Group (see Basis of preparation on page 142).

Estimates and judgements The Group holds financial instruments that are measured at fair value. The fair value of financial instruments may be derived from readily available sources or may require some estimation. The degree of estimation involved depends on the individual financial instrument and is reflected in the fair value hierarchy below. Judgements may include determining which valuation approach to apply as well as determining appropriate assumptions. For level 2 and 3 financial instruments, the judgement applied by the Group gives rise to an estimate of fair value. The approach to determining the fair value estimate of level 2 and 3 financial instruments is set out below. The fair value levels are based on the degree to which the fair value is observable and are defined as follows: \u2013 Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and principally comprise investments in pooled investment vehicles, quoted equities, national government debt and exchange-traded derivatives. \u2013 Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs that are directly or indirectly observable from market data, other than quoted prices included in level 1. The Group\u2019s level 2 financial instruments principally comprise holdings in pooled investment vehicles, foreign exchange contracts, corporate and non-national government debt securities and asset and mortgage backed securities. Valuation techniques may include using a broker quote in an inactive market or an evaluated price based on a compilation of primarily observable market information utilising information readily available via external sources. For funds not priced on a daily basis, the net asset value that is issued monthly or quarterly is used. \u2013 Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include significant inputs that are not based on observable market data. The Group\u2019s level 3 financial assets principally comprise holdings in pooled investment vehicles, including private equity funds, holdings in property investment vehicles that operate hotel businesses, and direct investments held via consolidated funds. The pooled investment vehicles and direct investments are measured in accordance with International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation Guidelines 2022 using the valuation technique that is most suitable to the applicable investment. The property investment vehicles are valued based on the expected future cash flows that could be generated from the underlying hotel businesses. Given the application of different valuation techniques, and as the investments are not homogenous in nature, there are no significant assumptions or reasonably possible alternatives that would lead to a material change in fair\u202fvalue. The Group\u2019s financial liabilities categorised as level 3 principally consist of third-party liabilities related to carried interest arrangements, obligations arising from contingent consideration and other liabilities to purchase the remaining interest in acquired subsidiaries. Information about the estimates and judgements made in determining the fair value of carried interest payable is set out in note 2. Liabilities in respect of options to purchase the remaining interest in certain subsidiaries require judgement in determining the appropriate assumptions to be applied in the estimation of the fair value. The amount that will ultimately be paid in relation to an option is dependent on the future earnings of the subsidiary and may be subject to a cap over the enterprise value. In estimating the liability, the assumptions principally relate to the future earnings of the business, the market multiple applied to the earnings and the rate applied to discount the liability back to present value. The future earnings of the applicable subsidiaries are estimated based on cash flow forecasts specific to the individual business and consequently there is no one assumption that is individually material to the valuation. Market multiples are applied to the forecast earnings to estimate the fair value of the business. Market multiples reflect the nature of the business and take into account observable market transactions where appropriate. Market multiples range from 10 to 15 times earnings. An increase/decrease in market multiples of one would increase/decrease the financial liability by \u00a37 million/\u00a37 million (2023: \u00a310 million/\u00a310 million). Discount rates between 11% and 14% have been used to discount these liabilities. An increase/ decrease in the discount rate of 1% would decrease/increase the financial liability by \u00a32 million/\u00a32 million (2023: \u00a35 million/\u00a35 million). The remaining level 3 liabilities are measured using different valuation methodologies and assumptions, and there are no significant assumptions or reasonably possible alternatives that would lead to a material change in fair value.

The Group initially recognises all financial assets at fair value. The Group subsequently measures each financial asset at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) or amortised cost. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability between market participants. Amortised cost is the amount determined based on moving the initial fair value to the maturity value on a systematic basis using the effective interest rate, taking account of repayment dates and initial expected premiums or discounts. Financial assets at amortised cost Financial assets are measured at amortised cost when their contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest and they are held within a business model designed to collect cash flows. This classification typically applies to the Group\u2019s loans and advances, trade receivables and some debt securities held by the Group\u2019s Wealth Management entities. The carrying value of amortised cost financial assets is adjusted for impairment under the expected credit loss (ECL) model. Movements in the ECL provision are recognised in other operating income in the income statement (see note 19). Financial assets at FVOCI Financial assets are measured at FVOCI when their contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest and they are held within a business model designed to collect cash flows and to sell assets. This classification applies to certain debt securities, principally within the Group\u2019s Wealth Management entities. Impairment is recognised for debt securities classified as FVOCI under the ECL model. Movements in the ECL provision are recognised in other operating income in the income statement (see note 19). Unrealised gains and losses on debt securities classified as financial assets at FVOCI are recorded in other comprehensive income. Cumulative gains and losses are transferred to the income statement if the asset is sold or otherwise realised. Interest earned on FVOCI assets is recognised using the effective interest method and recorded as interest in the income statement. Financial assets at FVTPL All other financial assets are measured at FVTPL. Net gains and losses are presented in the income statement based on the substance of the\u202ftransaction. Net gains and losses on co-investments are presented within other operating income; net gains and losses on the Group\u2019s investment and seed capital are presented within net gain/(loss) on financial instruments and other income; and net gains and losses on investments that are held to hedge deferred employee cash awards are presented within operating expenses (see note 3). This separate presentation provides more relevant information about the applicable components of the Group\u2019s income statement. Financial liabilities The Group\u2019s financial liabilities principally comprise deposits by Wealth Management clients and banking counterparties. They also include derivatives (see note 18) to support its Group capital strategies, activities within the Wealth Management banking book and client facilitation. Financial liabilities also arise from obligations in respect of carried interest, contingent consideration and other liabilities arising from acquisitions completed by the Group, and third party interests in consolidated funds. The Group initially recognises all financial liabilities at fair value. These are subsequently measured at amortised cost or fair value. Financial liabilities at amortised cost The majority of the Group\u2019s financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost and this typically applies to the Group\u2019s Wealth Management client accounts, banking deposits and trade payables. Financial liabilities at FVTPL Financial liabilities are measured at FVTPL when this reduces an accounting mismatch or when otherwise required by the accounting standards. This classification typically applies to financial obligations in respect of carried interest, third party interests in consolidated funds (see Basis of preparation on page 142) and contingent consideration. Net gains and losses are presented in the income statement based on the substance of the instrument. Net gains and losses on financial obligations in respect of carried interest are presented within cost of sales; and net gains and losses on contingent consideration are presented within acquisition costs and related items. This separate presentation provides more relevant information about the applicable components of the Group\u2019s income statement. Liabilities to purchase subsidiary shares Financial liabilities in relation to equity transactions arise on certain acquisitions where the Group has a liability to purchase the remaining interest in a subsidiary that is not wholly owned by the Group (see Basis of preparation on page 142). The Group records any non-controlling interest at the proportionate share of the acquiree\u2019s identifiable assets. Where an option exists to acquire a further interest in the shares of a subsidiary a financial liability is recognised. These liabilities are measured at the present value of the expected amount payable on exercise. As the option relates to a change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, the non-controlling interest is adjusted and changes in value are recognised directly in equity. If these options expire unexercised, the financial liability is derecognised with the corresponding credit recognised directly in equity.

The Group initially recognises all financial assets at fair value. The Group subsequently measures each financial asset at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) or amortised cost. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability between market participants. Amortised cost is the amount determined based on moving the initial fair value to the maturity value on a systematic basis using the effective interest rate, taking account of repayment dates and initial expected premiums or discounts. Financial assets at amortised cost Financial assets are measured at amortised cost when their contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest and they are held within a business model designed to collect cash flows. This classification typically applies to the Group\u2019s loans and advances, trade receivables and some debt securities held by the Group\u2019s Wealth Management entities. The carrying value of amortised cost financial assets is adjusted for impairment under the expected credit loss (ECL) model. Movements in the ECL provision are recognised in other operating income in the income statement (see note 19). Financial assets at FVOCI Financial assets are measured at FVOCI when their contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest and they are held within a business model designed to collect cash flows and to sell assets. This classification applies to certain debt securities, principally within the Group\u2019s Wealth Management entities. Impairment is recognised for debt securities classified as FVOCI under the ECL model. Movements in the ECL provision are recognised in other operating income in the income statement (see note 19). Unrealised gains and losses on debt securities classified as financial assets at FVOCI are recorded in other comprehensive income. Cumulative gains and losses are transferred to the income statement if the asset is sold or otherwise realised. Interest earned on FVOCI assets is recognised using the effective interest method and recorded as interest in the income statement.

On 18 April 2024, the Group issued \u00a3250.0 million of subordinated notes, which are eligible as Tier 2 regulatory capital, with a maturity
date of 18 July 2034. These notes are financial instruments measured at amortised cost and bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.346% per
annum to 18 July 2029, and at a reset rate thereafter. The reset rate would be determined with reference to the then current 5-year gilt
yield and the original reoffer spread of 225 basis points. The Group has the option to redeem all of the notes between 18 April 2029 and
18 July 2029. The fair value of the notes at 31 December 2024 was \u00a3259.4 million and they would be categorised as level 2 within the fair
value hierarchy (see note 8).

In both cases, the Group initially records the investment at the fair value of the purchase consideration, including purchase-related costs. The Group\u2019s income statement reflects its share of the entity\u2019s profit or loss after tax and amortisation of intangible assets.

12 Leases The Group\u2019s lease arrangements primarily consist of operating leases relating to office space. The Group initially records a lease liability in the statement of financial position reflecting the present value of the future contractual cash flows to be made over the lease term, discounted using the Group\u2019s incremental borrowing rate. This is the rate that the Group would have to pay for a loan of a similar term and with similar security to obtain an asset of similar value. A right-of-use (ROU) asset is recorded at the value of the lease liability plus any directly related costs and estimated future dilapidation expense and is presented within property, plant and equipment (see note 11) on the balance sheet. Interest is accrued on the lease liability using the effective interest method to give a constant rate of return over the life of the lease while the balance is reduced as lease payments are made. The ROU asset is depreciated from commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the ROU asset or the end of the lease term as the benefit of the asset is consumed. Increases or decreases that occur at contractually agreed market rent review dates are included in the lease liability once\u202frevised market rents have been agreed. The Group considers whether the lease term should reflect options to extend or reduce the life of the lease. Relevant factors that could create an economic incentive to exercise the option are considered and the extension/termination is included if it is reasonably certain to be exercised. After the commencement date, the Group reassesses the lease term if there is a significant event or change in circumstances that is within its control and affects the likelihood that it will exercise (or not exercise) the option. Should this occur, the Group modifies the lease liability and associated ROU asset to reflect the revised remaining expected cash flows.

13 Goodwill and intangible assets Intangible assets (other than software) arise when the Group acquires a business and the fair value paid exceeds the fair value of the net tangible assets acquired. This premium reflects additional value that the Group determines to be attached to the business. Identifiable acquired intangible assets relating to business combinations include technology and contractual agreements to manage client assets and gain additional access to new or existing clients and geographies. Where such assets can be identified, they are classified as acquired intangible assets and amortised to the income statement within acquisition costs and related items on a straight-line basis, primarily over seven years. Consideration paid to acquire a business in excess of the acquisition date fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible assets is known as goodwill. Goodwill is not charged to the income statement unless its value has diminished. The assessment of whether goodwill has become impaired is based on the expected future returns of the relevant cash-generating unit (CGU) as a whole. Software purchased and developed for use in the business is also classified as an intangible asset. The cost of purchasing and developing software is taken to the income statement over time as an amortisation charge within operating expenses. The treatment is similar to that for property, plant and equipment, and the asset is normally amortised on a straight-line basis over three to five years, but can have an estimated useful life of up to ten years.

The Group completed two business combinations during the year ended 31 December 2024, resulting in \u00a322.0 million of identifiable intangible assets and \u00a330.7 million of Wealth Management goodwill. The Group acquired \u00a34.5 million of customer contracts through Benchmark Capital that were not considered to be business combinations. Estimates and judgements The Group estimates the fair value of identifiable intangible assets acquired at the acquisition date based on forecast profits, taking account of synergies, derived from existing contractual arrangements. This assessment involves judgement in determining assumptions relating to\u202fpotential future revenues, profit margins, appropriate discount rates and the expected duration of client relationships. The difference between the fair value of the consideration and the value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, including intangible assets, is\u202faccounted for as goodwill. At each reporting date, the Group applies judgement to determine whether there is any indication that an acquired intangible asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, a full assessment is undertaken. Goodwill is assessed for impairment on an annual basis. If the assessment of goodwill or an acquired intangible asset determines that the carrying value exceeds the estimated recoverable amount\u202fat that time, the assets are written down to their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of goodwill is determined using a discounted cash flow model. Any impairment is recognised in the income statement and cannot be reversed. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to the CGUs that are expected to benefit from that business combination. For all relevant acquisitions, the Group has determined that the lowest level CGU for Asset Management acquisitions is the segment. The Benchmark Capital business within Wealth Management is assessed separately from the rest of Wealth Management. Of the total goodwill, \u00a3995.2 million (2023: \u00a31,012.3 million) is allocated to Asset Management and \u00a3274.4 million (2023: \u00a3242.7 million) is\u202fallocated to Wealth Management, of which \u00a393.8 million (2023: \u00a381.4 million) relates to Benchmark Capital. The recoverable amounts of the CGUs are determined from value-in-use calculations applying a discounted cash flow model using the Group\u2019s five-year strategic business plan cash flows. The key assumptions on which the Group\u2019s cash flow projections are based include long-term market growth rates of 2% per annum (2023: 2%), a pre-tax discount rate of 13% (2023: 13%), expected flows and expected changes to revenue margins. The results of the calculations indicate that goodwill is not impaired. Reasonable movements (1%) in the growth rate and/or the discount rate would not lead to any impairment. This is due to the amount of goodwill allocated to the relevant CGU relative to the size of the relevant future profitability estimate. A comparison of actual results to the projected results used to assess goodwill impairment in prior years shows that the Group would have recognised no changes (2023: nil) to its goodwill asset in the year as a result of inaccurate projections. The recoverable amount of acquired intangible assets is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and the updated discounted valuation of the remaining net residual income stream. Any impairment is recognised in the income statement but may be reversed if relevant conditions improve.

The Group completed two business combinations during the year ended 31 December 2024, resulting in \u00a322.0 million of identifiable intangible assets and \u00a330.7 million of Wealth Management goodwill. The Group acquired \u00a34.5 million of customer contracts through Benchmark Capital that were not considered to be business combinations. Estimates and judgements The Group estimates the fair value of identifiable intangible assets acquired at the acquisition date based on forecast profits, taking account of synergies, derived from existing contractual arrangements. This assessment involves judgement in determining assumptions relating to\u202fpotential future revenues, profit margins, appropriate discount rates and the expected duration of client relationships. The difference between the fair value of the consideration and the value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, including intangible assets, is\u202faccounted for as goodwill. At each reporting date, the Group applies judgement to determine whether there is any indication that an acquired intangible asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, a full assessment is undertaken. Goodwill is assessed for impairment on an annual basis. If the assessment of goodwill or an acquired intangible asset determines that the carrying value exceeds the estimated recoverable amount\u202fat that time, the assets are written down to their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of goodwill is determined using a discounted cash flow model. Any impairment is recognised in the income statement and cannot be reversed. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to the CGUs that are expected to benefit from that business combination. For all relevant acquisitions, the Group has determined that the lowest level CGU for Asset Management acquisitions is the segment. The Benchmark Capital business within Wealth Management is assessed separately from the rest of Wealth Management. Of the total goodwill, \u00a3995.2 million (2023: \u00a31,012.3 million) is allocated to Asset Management and \u00a3274.4 million (2023: \u00a3242.7 million) is\u202fallocated to Wealth Management, of which \u00a393.8 million (2023: \u00a381.4 million) relates to Benchmark Capital. The recoverable amounts of the CGUs are determined from value-in-use calculations applying a discounted cash flow model using the Group\u2019s five-year strategic business plan cash flows. The key assumptions on which the Group\u2019s cash flow projections are based include long-term market growth rates of 2% per annum (2023: 2%), a pre-tax discount rate of 13% (2023: 13%), expected flows and expected changes to revenue margins. The results of the calculations indicate that goodwill is not impaired. Reasonable movements (1%) in the growth rate and/or the discount rate would not lead to any impairment. This is due to the amount of goodwill allocated to the relevant CGU relative to the size of the relevant future profitability estimate. A comparison of actual results to the projected results used to assess goodwill impairment in prior years shows that the Group would have recognised no changes (2023: nil) to its goodwill asset in the year as a result of inaccurate projections. The recoverable amount of acquired intangible assets is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and the updated discounted valuation of the remaining net residual income stream. Any impairment is recognised in the income statement but may be reversed if relevant conditions improve. 28 Business combinations The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and any equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from contingent or deferred consideration arrangements. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognises any non-controlling interest at the fair value of the proportionate share of the acquiree\u2019s identifiable net assets. The Group completed two business combinations during the year ended 31 December 2024. On 7 October 2024, the Group acquired 100% of the issued share capital of Whitley Asset Management (Whitley), a UK wealth management business, for a total consideration of \u00a337.2 million. The acquisition contributed \u00a31.5 billion of Wealth Management AUM and increases the Group\u2019s scale and capability for its UK private clients. On 31 May 2024, the Group acquired a controlling interest of 51% of the issued share capital of Finura Partners Limited (Finura), a professional financial planning business, for a total consideration of nil. The acquisition contributed \u00a30.9 billion of Wealth Management AUM and strengthens the Group\u2019s financial planning capabilities.

The goodwill arising on acquisition is attributable to the value from: \u2013 A broader platform for business growth; \u2013 Talented management and employees; and \u2013 Opportunities for synergies from combining certain activities. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. If the acquisitions had been completed on 1 January 2024, the Group\u2019s net operating income for the year would have been \u00a32,439.0 million and the operating profit for the year on the same basis would have been \u00a3642.7 million. Estimates and judgements The fair value of certain items of consideration, assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires some estimation. For intangible assets this estimation required assumptions regarding the level of future management fees that will be earned over the relevant period. The net impact of changes to these assumptions would be to change the carrying value of individual assets and liabilities with a corresponding change to goodwill.

They\u202farise as a result of temporary differences, where the time at which profits and losses are recognised for tax purposes differs from the time at which the relevant transaction is recorded. A deferred tax asset represents a tax reduction that is expected to arise in a future period based on past transactions. A deferred tax liability represents taxes that will become payable in a future period as a result of current or prior\u202fyear transactions. Deferred tax liabilities also arise on certain acquisitions where the amortisation of the acquired intangible asset does not result in a tax deduction. The deferred tax liability is established on acquisition and is released to the income statement to match the intangible asset amortisation. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the year-end date.

Following the 2021 Budget, the UK tax rate increased to 25% from April 2023. This results in a tax rate of 25% applicable to the UK Group for 2024 (2023: blended tax rate of 23.5%). Included in the deferred tax asset is an asset relating to UK tax deductions for share-based remuneration which is dependent on the prices of\u202fthe Company\u2019s ordinary shares at the time the awards are exercised. A deferred tax asset of \u00a310.5 million (2023: \u00a39.9 million) relating to \u00a342.4 million of realised capital losses has not been recognised as there is insufficient evidence that there will be sufficient taxable gains in the future against which the deferred tax asset could be\u202futilised. A deferred tax asset of \u00a324.4 million (2023: \u00a328.0 million) relating to \u00a3103.2 million of losses, including unrealised capital losses, and other temporary differences has not\u202fbeen recognised as there is insufficient evidence that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which these losses and temporary differences can be utilised. The Group has applied the mandatory IAS 12 temporary exemption from the recognition and disclosure of deferred taxes arising from implementation of the OECD\u2019s Pillar Two model rules. After offsetting deferred tax assets and liabilities where appropriate within territories, the net deferred tax asset comprises:

The Life Company provides unit-linked investment products through a life assurance wrapper. The investment products do not provide cover for insurance risk and are therefore recognised and accounted for as financial instruments and presented as financial liabilities due to Life Company investors (policyholders) within unit-linked liabilities. The financial risks of these products are largely borne by the third-party investors, consistent with other investment products managed by the Group. However, since the Life Company, which is a subsidiary, issues the investment instrument and holds the relevant financial assets, both the investments and the third-party obligations are recorded in the statement of financial position. The investment product is almost identical to a unit trust. As it is a life assurance product, the contractual rights and obligations of the investments remain with the Group and the AUM is therefore included on the statement of financial position, together with the liability to investors. The Group earns fee income from managing the investment, which is included in revenue. Financial assets held by the Life Company are measured at FVTPL. Other balances include cash and receivables, which are measured at amortised cost (see note 8). The unit-linked liabilities are measured at FVTPL to avoid an accounting mismatch. The Life Company\u2019s assets are regarded as current assets as they represent the amount available to Life Company investors (or third party investors in consolidated funds) who are able to withdraw their funds on call, subject to certain restrictions in the case of illiquidity. Gains and losses from assets held to cover investor obligations are attributable to investors in the Life Company or to third party investors in the funds. As a result, any gain or loss is offset by a change in the obligation to investors.

1. In accordance with the accounting standards, the Group is deemed to hold a controlling interest in certain funds as a result of the investments held by the Life Company. This\u202fresults in all of the assets and liabilities of those funds being consolidated within the statement of financial position and the third party interest in the fund being recorded as a financial liability due to third party investors. The Group has no primary exposure to market risk, credit risk or liquidity risk in relation to the investments due to Life Company investors. The risks and rewards associated with its investments are borne by the investors in the Life Company\u2019s investment products or third party investors in the funds and not by the Life Company itself. Consequently, no further financial instrument risk disclosures are included.
Fair value measurements of Life Company financial assets and liabilities
Each of the Life Company\u2019s financial assets and liabilities has been categorised using a fair value hierarchy as shown below. These levels

The fair value of financial instruments not held at fair value approximates their carrying value. No financial assets were transferred
between levels during the year (2023: none).
Estimates and judgements \u2013 fair value measurements Each instrument has been categorised within one of three levels using a fair value hierarchy (see note 8). Level 1 investments principally comprise quoted equities, investments in pooled investment vehicles, government debt and exchange-traded derivatives. Level 2 investments principally comprise debt securities such as commercial paper and certificates of deposit. Level 3 investments principally comprise investments in private equity funds. There are no assumptions that are individually significant or reasonably possible alternatives that would lead to a material change in the fair value of these assets. Movements in financial assets categorised as level 3 during the year were:

The Life Company provides unit-linked investment products through a life assurance wrapper. The investment products do not provide cover for insurance risk and are therefore recognised and accounted for as financial instruments and presented as financial liabilities due to Life Company investors (policyholders) within unit-linked liabilities. The financial risks of these products are largely borne by the third-party investors, consistent with other investment products managed by the Group. However, since the Life Company, which is a subsidiary, issues the investment instrument and holds the relevant financial assets, both the investments and the third-party obligations are recorded in the statement of financial position. The investment product is almost identical to a unit trust. As it is a life assurance product, the contractual rights and obligations of the investments remain with the Group and the AUM is therefore included on the statement of financial position, together with the liability to investors. The Group earns fee income from managing the investment, which is included in revenue. Financial assets held by the Life Company are measured at FVTPL. Other balances include cash and receivables, which are measured at amortised cost (see note 8). The unit-linked liabilities are measured at FVTPL to avoid an accounting mismatch. The Life Company\u2019s assets are regarded as current assets as they represent the amount available to Life Company investors (or third party investors in consolidated funds) who are able to withdraw their funds on call, subject to certain restrictions in the case of illiquidity. Gains and losses from assets held to cover investor obligations are attributable to investors in the Life Company or to third party investors in the funds. As a result, any gain or loss is offset by a change in the obligation to investors.

In 2024, the Group recognised a provision of \u00a337.5 million for building repair works. An associated insurance receivable of \u00a335.0 million has been recognised within other receivables as it is virtually certain that such costs incurred in the works will be covered by an insurance policy. The expense and associated reimbursement have been presented net in the Group\u2019s income statement.

Dilapidation provisions associated with the Group\u2019s office leases have a weighted average maturity of 12 years (2023: 12 years). Legal and regulatory obligations associated with the Group\u2019s business arise from past events that are estimated to crystallise mainly within two\u202fyears (2023: two years). These matters are ongoing. Estimates and judgements The timing and amount of settlement of each legal claim or potential claim, regulatory matter and constructive obligation are uncertain. The Group applies judgement to determine whether a provision is required. The Group performs an assessment of the timing and amount of each event and reviews this assessment periodically. For some provisions there is greater certainty as the cash flows have largely been determined. Potential legal claims, regulatory related costs and other obligations to third parties arise as a consequence of normal business activity. They can arise from actual or alleged breaches of obligations and may be covered by the Group\u2019s insurance arrangements, but subject to insurance excess. In certain circumstances, legal and regulatory claims can arise despite there being no error or breach. The Group\u2019s risk management and compliance procedures are designed to mitigate, but are not able to eliminate, the risk of losses occurring. Where such claims and costs arise there is often uncertainty over whether a payment will be required and estimation is required in determining the quantum and timing of that payment. As a result, there is also uncertainty over the timing and amount of any insurance recovery, although this does not change the likelihood of insurance cover being available, where applicable. The Group makes periodic assessments of all cash flows, including taking external advice where appropriate, to determine an appropriate provision. Some matters may be settled through commercial negotiation as well as being covered in whole or in part by the Group\u2019s insurance arrangements. The Group has made provisions based on the reasonable expectation of likely outflows. The inherent uncertainty in such matters and the results of negotiations and insurance cover may result in different outcomes. There are no key judgements or estimates that would result in any additional material provisions being recognised or any material contingent liabilities being disclosed in the financial statements (2023: none). The provisions included in the financial statements at 31 December 2024 are based on estimates of reasonable ranges of likely outcomes, applying assumptions regarding the probability of payments being due and the settlement value.

The Group\u2019s commitments primarily relate to investment call commitments, commitments for property, plant and equipment and future leases not yet commenced. The Group sublets a small number of its owned and leased properties where such properties, or parts of such properties, are not required for use by the Group. The table below discloses the commitments sub-lessees have made in respect of such arrangements. These commitments are not recorded on the statement of financial position in advance of the period to which they relate.

They are recorded at the Group\u2019s best estimate of the cost of settling the obligation. Any differences between those estimates and the amounts for which the Group actually becomes liable are taken to the income statement as additional charges where the Group has underestimated and credits where the Group has overestimated. Where the estimated timing and settlement are longer term, the amount is discounted using a rate reflecting specific risks associated with the provision.

The Group most commonly uses forward foreign exchange contracts, where it agrees to buy or sell specified amounts of a named currency at a future date, allowing the Group to effectively fix exchange rates so that it can avoid unpredictable gains and losses on financial instruments in foreign currency assets and liabilities. The Group uses futures, total return swaps and credit default swaps to hedge market-related gains and losses on its seed capital investments where the purpose of investing is to help establish a new product rather than gain additional market exposure. The Group designates certain derivatives as hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation. In these scenarios, and where relevant conditions are met, hedge accounting is applied and the Group formally documents the relationship between the derivative and any hedged item, its risk management objectives and its strategy for undertaking the various hedging transactions. It also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are effective in offsetting changes in the fair value of hedged items. In respect of hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation, the portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge is recognised directly in other comprehensive income. The Group\u2019s net investment hedges are generally fully effective, but any ineffective portion that may arise is recognised in the income statement. On disposal of the foreign operation, together with the hedged gain or loss, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument is transferred to the income statement.
Risk management: The Group actively seeks to limit and manage its exposures to risk where those exposures are not desired by the
Group. This may take the form of unwanted exposures to a particular currency, type of interest rate or other price risk. By entering into
derivative contracts, the Group is able to mitigate or eliminate such exposures. The principal risks that the Group faces through such use
of derivative contracts are credit risk and liquidity risk.
Client facilitation: The Group\u2019s Wealth Management entities are involved in providing portfolio management, banking and investment
advisory services, primarily to private clients. In carrying out this business, they transact as agent or as principal in financial assets and
liabilities (including derivatives) in order to facilitate client portfolio requirements. Wealth Management\u2019s policy is to hedge, as
appropriate, market risk on its client facilitation positions. This does not eliminate credit risk.
For details of how the Group manages its exposure to credit risk, see below and note 19.
(b) Derivatives used by the Group
Forwards are contractual obligations to buy or sell foreign currency on a future date at a specified exchange rate. The maximum
exposure to credit risk is represented by the fair value of the contracts.
Currency, interest rate, total return and credit default swaps are commitments to exchange one set of cash flows for another. Swaps
result in an\u202feconomic exchange of currencies, interest rates or total returns (for example, fixed rate for floating rate) or a combination of
these (i.e. cross-currency interest rate swaps). No exchange of principal takes place, except in the case of certain currency swaps. The
Group\u2019s credit risk represents the potential cost of replacing the swap contracts if counterparties fail to perform their obligations. This
risk is monitored on an ongoing basis with reference to the current fair value, the proportion of the notional amount of the contracts,
and the liquidity of the market. To control the level of credit risk taken, the Group assesses counterparties in accordance with its internal
policies and procedures.
Futures contracts are standardised contracts to buy or sell specified assets for an agreed price at a specified future date. Contracts are
negotiated at a futures exchange, which acts as an intermediary between the two parties. For futures contracts, the maximum exposure
to credit risk is represented by the fair value of the contracts.
The fair value of derivative instruments becomes favourable (assets) or unfavourable (liabilities) as a result of fluctuations in market
interest rates, indices, foreign exchange rates and other relevant variables relative to their terms. The aggregate contractual amount of
derivative financial instruments held, the extent to which instruments are favourable or unfavourable, and thus the aggregate fair values
of derivative financial assets and liabilities can fluctuate significantly from time to time. The fair values and contractual maturities are set

This note explains how the Group manages its capital, setting out the nature of the risks the Group faces as a result of its operations, and how these risks are quantified and managed. The Group is exposed to different forms of financial instrument risk including: (i) the risk that money owed to the Group will not be received (credit risk); (ii) the risk that the Group may not have sufficient cash available to pay its creditors as they fall due (liquidity risk); and (iii) the risk that the value of assets will fluctuate as a result of movements in factors such as market prices, interest rates and foreign exchange rates (market risk). The management of such risks is embedded in managerial responsibilities fundamental to the wellbeing of the Group. The Group\u2019s primary exposure to financial instrument risk is derived from the financial instruments that it holds as principal. In addition, due to the nature of the business, the Group\u2019s exposure extends to the impact on investment management and other fees that are determined on the basis of a percentage of AUM and are therefore impacted by the financial instrument risk exposure of our clients \u2013 the secondary exposure. This note deals only with the direct or primary exposure of the risks from the Group\u2019s holding of financial instruments. Disclosures relating to unit-linked liabilities and assets backing unit-linked liabilities are included in note 15. (a) Capital The Group is supervised in the United Kingdom (UK) on a consolidated basis by the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA). The PRA sets capital requirements for the Group and monitors the Group\u2019s capital adequacy on an ongoing basis. Regulated subsidiaries within the Group are supervised by their local regulators who set and monitor local capital adequacy requirements. The Group\u2019s approach to capital management is to maintain a strong capital position to enable it to invest in the future of the Group, in line with its strategy, and to support the risks inherent in conducting its business. Capital management is an important part of the Group\u2019s risk management framework and is underpinned by the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP). The ICAAP considers the relevant current and future risks to the business and the capital considered necessary to support these risks. The Group actively monitors its capital base to ensure it maintains sufficient and appropriate capital resources to cover the relevant risks to the business and to meet consolidated and local regulatory and working capital requirements. At 31 December 2024, the Group had total regulatory own funds of \u00a32,396 million (2023: \u00a32,073 million), consisting of Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) and Tier 2 capital (2023: consisting entirely of CET1). The Group\u2019s overall regulatory capital requirement was \u00a31,477 million (2023: \u00a31,443 million). Therefore, at 31 December 2024 the Group had surplus capital of \u00a3919 million (2023: \u00a3630 million). The Group\u2019s capital ratio was 20.9% (2023: 18.6%).
The Group\u2019s overall capital requirement comprises a Total Capital Requirement (TCR), which was \u00a31,085 million as at 31 December 2024
(2023: \u00a31,059 million), and a capital requirement in respect of regulatory buffers and our insurance companies, which was \u00a3392 million as
at 31 December 2024 (2023: \u00a3384 million). The TCR is the minimum amount of capital that the Group is required to maintain at all times.

(b) Credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk The Group is exposed to credit, liquidity and market risk as a result of the financial instruments it holds. Settlement of financial instruments (on both a principal and agency basis) also gives rise to operational risk. The Group\u2019s risk management framework is critical to effective management of these risks and considerable resources are dedicated to this area. Risk management is the direct responsibility of the Board, with responsibility for oversight delegated to the Audit and Risk Committee. The Group applies the three lines of defence model to risk management, which includes financial instrument risk. More details on the risk management framework and approach are set out in the Risk Management report and the Audit and Risk Committee report on pages 26 and 54 respectively. (i) Credit risk Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty to a financial instrument, loan or commitment will cause the Group financial loss by failing to discharge its obligations. For this purpose, the impact on fair value of a credit loss arising from credit spread price changes in a portfolio of investments is excluded. This risk is addressed within pricing risk. The Group has exposure to credit risk from its normal activities where it is exposed to the risk that a counterparty will be unable to pay amounts when due. The Group carefully manages its exposure to credit risk by monitoring exposures to individual counterparties and sectors, monitoring counterparties\u2019 creditworthiness, taking collateral and reducing settlement risk where possible and approving lending policies that specify the type of acceptable collateral and lending margins. The Group\u2019s maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the gross carrying value of its financial assets. Externally published credit ratings are indicators of the level of credit risk associated with a counterparty. A breakdown of the Group\u2019s relevant financial assets held with rated and unrated counterparties is set out below:

Expected credit losses are calculated on all of the Group\u2019s financial assets that are measured at amortised cost and all debt instruments that are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. Factors considered in determining whether a default has taken place include how many days past the due date a payment is, deterioration in the credit quality of a counterparty, and knowledge of specific events that could influence a counterparty\u2019s ability to pay. A three stage model is used for calculating expected credit losses, which requires financial assets to be assessed as: \u2022 Performing (stage 1) \u2013 financial assets where there has been no significant increase in credit risk since original recognition; \u2022 Under-performing (stage 2) \u2013 financial assets where there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, but no default; or, \u2022 Non-performing (stage 3) \u2013 financial assets that are in default. For financial assets in stage 1, expected credit losses are calculated based on the credit losses that are expected to be incurred over the following 12-month period. For financial assets in stages 2 and 3, expected credit losses are calculated based on credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the instrument. The Group applies the simplified approach to calculate expected credit losses for trade and other receivables. Under this approach, instruments are not categorised into three stages and expected credit losses are calculated based on the life of the instrument. Wealth Management activities All client credit requests are presented to the relevant Wealth Management approval authorities and counterparty exposures are monitored daily against limits. Loans, overdrafts and advances to clients, as well as certain derivative positions, are secured on a range of assets including real estate (both residential and commercial), cash, client portfolios and investment bonds. The Group does not usually provide loans, overdrafts or advances to clients on an unsecured basis. Where disposal of non-cash collateral is required, in the event of default, the terms and conditions relevant to the specific contract and country will apply. Portfolios held as collateral are marked to market daily and positions compared to clients\u2019 exposures. Credit limits are set following an assessment of the market value and lending value of each type of collateral, depending on the perceived risk associated with the collateral. Clients are contacted if these limits are expected to be or are breached, or if collateral is not sufficient to cover the outstanding exposure. The Group also holds collateral on some short-term advances to banks through reverse repurchase agreements. The collateral accepted includes certain investment-grade securities that can be sold or repledged without default of the provider. At 31 December 2024, the fair value of collateral that could be sold or repledged but had not been, relating solely to these arrangements, was \u00a31,526.6 million (2023: \u00a31,107.6 million). Policies covering various counterparty and market risk limits are set and monitored by the relevant Wealth Management asset and liability management committees. All instruments held within the Wealth Management treasury book have an investment-grade credit rating. Wealth Management takes a conservative approach to its treasury investments, placing them with, or purchasing debt securities issued by, UK and overseas banks and corporates, central banks, supranational banks and sovereigns. Expected credit losses on financial assets at amortised cost within the Wealth Management entities at 31 December 2024 were \u00a32.2 million (2023: \u00a31.0 million). There was one (2023: one) non-performing (stage 3) loan of \u00a36.9 million (2023: \u00a36.2 million) giving rise to \u00a31.8 million expected credit losses (2023: \u00a30.5 million). All other financial assets at amortised cost (excluding trade and other receivables to which the three stage model is not applied) were performing (stage 1) (2023: same). Expected credit losses on financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income within the Wealth Management entities at 31 December 2024 were \u00a30.4 million (2023: \u00a30.2 million). All financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income were performing (stage 1) (2023: same). Other activities Fee debtors and other receivables arise as a result of the Group\u2019s asset management activities and amounts are monitored regularly. Historically, default levels have been insignificant and, unless a client has withdrawn its funds, there is an ongoing relationship between the Group and the client. Fee debtors past due but not in default as at 31 December 2024 were \u00a354.6 million (2023: \u00a350.8 million), the majority of which were less than 90 days past due (2023: less than 90 days). The Group seeks to manage its exposure to credit risk arising from debt securities and derivatives within the investment portfolio by adopting a conservative approach and through ongoing credit analysis, and it may hedge some of the credit risk with credit default swaps. Corporate bond portfolios, when in place, have an investment-grade mandate, and exposure to sub-investment-grade debt is low. Most derivative positions, other than forward foreign exchange contracts and total return swaps, are taken in exchange-traded securities where there is minimal credit risk. Forward foreign exchange positions generally have a maturity between one and three months. The Group\u2019s cash and cash equivalents in the non-Wealth Management entities are held primarily in current accounts, on deposit with well-rated banks, or invested in money market or similar funds. Expected credit losses on financial assets at amortised cost within non-Wealth Management entities at 31 December 2024 were \u00a31.6 million (2023: \u00a30.6 million). Debt securities included \u00a324.0 million of under-performing (stage 2) securities (2023: none) giving rise to \u00a31.4 million of expected credit losses. All other financial assets at amortised cost (excluding trade and other receivables to which the three stage model is not applied) were performing (stage 1) (2023: same). (ii) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group cannot meet its obligations as they fall due or can only do so at a cost. The Group has a clearly defined liquidity risk management framework in place in the form of a Consolidated Group Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Process (ILAAP). The Group policy is that its subsidiaries should trade solvently, comply with regulatory liquidity requirements and have access to adequate liquidity for all activities undertaken in the normal course of business. As part of its ILAAP, the Group performs stress testing to confirm that sufficient liquidity is available to cover severe but plausible stress events. Wealth Management activities The principal liquidity risk in the Group\u2019s Wealth Management business arises as a result of its banking activities, where the timing of cash flows from liabilities relating to client accounts can be impacted by client action. The objective of the Group\u2019s liquidity policy is to maintain sufficient liquidity within the relevant entities to meet regulatory and prudential requirements, and to cover cash flow imbalances and fluctuations in funding and the timely repayment of funds to depositors. Liquidity positions are actively monitored against both regulatory and internal limits and cash flows are managed so that sufficient liquidity is available to cover potential liquidity risks. The contractual maturity of Wealth Management financial assets and liabilities is set out below:

Other activities The Group\u2019s exposure to liquidity risk outside its Wealth Management activities is low. Excluding the Life Company and consolidated funds, the Asset Management segment along with the Group\u2019s capital and treasury management activities together hold cash and cash\u202fequivalents of \u00a3820.0 million (2023: \u00a3832.9 million). Financial liabilities relating to other operating entities are \u00a3354.9 million (2023: \u00a3373.2 million). The Group has a committed revolving credit facility of \u00a3850.0 million (2023: \u00a3850.0 million), which expires on 7 November 2029. No money was drawn down under the facility during 2024 (2023: maximum amount drawn down was \u00a3180.0 million). (iii) Market risk Market risk is the risk that the value of assets will fluctuate as a result of movements in factors such as market prices, interest rates and foreign exchange rates. Pricing risk Pricing risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market prices other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk. In respect of financial instrument risk, the Group\u2019s exposure to pricing risk is principally through investments held in seed and co- investment capital and deferred employee compensation in the form of fund awards. The Group does not hedge exposures to pricing risk except in relation to seed capital, where it is practical to do so, and in respect of deferred employee compensation awards, where these can be matched by interests in funds managed by the Group. Where financial instruments are held to hedge deferred compensation awards, movements in the fair value of the asset are normally offset by changes in the amounts payable to employees (see note 3). Interest rate risk Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest\u202frates. Wealth Management activities In Wealth Management, interest rate risk is monitored on a daily basis against policies and limits set by the relevant risk committee. Interest rate risk is managed within set limits by matching asset and liability positions and through the use of interest rate swaps. Sensitivity-based and stress-based models are used for monitoring interest rate risk. These models assess the impact of a prescribed shift in interest rates and the potential impact of severe but plausible stress scenarios. Other activities Cash held by the other operating companies is not normally expected to be placed on deposit for longer than three months and is not exposed to significant interest rate risk. The Group\u2019s capital can include investments in corporate investment-grade bonds managed by the Group\u2019s fixed income fund managers. The market risk (including interest rate risk) exposure of these investments is actively monitored against limits set by the Board. Foreign exchange risk Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. Wealth Management activities In Wealth Management, foreign exchange risk is monitored each day against policies and limits set by the relevant risk committees. Foreign exchange risk is managed within set limits by the treasury departments using spot, forward and foreign exchange swap contracts. Other activities The Group\u2019s policy in relation to foreign exchange risks arising from revenue, expenditure and capital currency exposure from its Asset Management activities is generally not to hedge. The Group\u2019s revenue is earned and expenditure incurred in many currencies and the resulting exposure is considered to be a normal part of the Group\u2019s business activities. The Group also has exposure to foreign currency on financial instruments not held in the functional currency of entities which resulted in a \u00a321.4 million gain in the income statement (2023: \u00a319.0 million gain) and exposure arising from net investments in foreign operations which resulted in a \u00a354.4 million loss in other comprehensive income (2023: \u00a358.3 million loss). The Group uses forward foreign exchange contracts with third parties to mitigate some of these exposures. The gain or loss on these contracts is included in the income statement or statement of other comprehensive income, as\u202fappropriate. The use of such instruments is subject to approval by the Group Capital Committee. The sensitivities to market risk at 31 December are estimated as follows:

1. The underlying assumption is that there is one variable increase/decrease with all other variables held constant. 2. Assumes that the fair value of assets and liabilities will not be affected by a change in interest rates. 3. Assumes that changes in the FTSE All-Share Index correlate to changes in the fair value of the Group\u2019s equity investments. The reasonable changes in variables will have no impact on any other components of equity. These sensitivities concern only the direct impact on financial instruments and exclude indirect impacts on fee income and certain costs that may be affected by changes in the variable.

This note explains how the Group manages its capital, setting out the nature of the risks the Group faces as a result of its operations, and how these risks are quantified and managed. The Group is exposed to different forms of financial instrument risk including: (i) the risk that money owed to the Group will not be received (credit risk); (ii) the risk that the Group may not have sufficient cash available to pay its creditors as they fall due (liquidity risk); and (iii) the risk that the value of assets will fluctuate as a result of movements in factors such as market prices, interest rates and foreign exchange rates (market risk). The management of such risks is embedded in managerial responsibilities fundamental to the wellbeing of the Group. The Group\u2019s primary exposure to financial instrument risk is derived from the financial instruments that it holds as principal. In addition, due to the nature of the business, the Group\u2019s exposure extends to the impact on investment management and other fees that are determined on the basis of a percentage of AUM and are therefore impacted by the financial instrument risk exposure of our clients \u2013 the secondary exposure.

The PRA sets capital requirements for the Group and monitors the Group\u2019s capital adequacy on an ongoing basis. Regulated subsidiaries within the Group are supervised by their local regulators who set and monitor local capital adequacy requirements. The Group\u2019s approach to capital management is to maintain a strong capital position to enable it to invest in the future of the Group, in line with its strategy, and to support the risks inherent in conducting its business. Capital management is an important part of the Group\u2019s risk management framework and is underpinned by the Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP). The ICAAP considers the relevant current and future risks to the business and the capital considered necessary to support these risks. The Group actively monitors its capital base to ensure it maintains sufficient and appropriate capital resources to cover the relevant risks to the business and to meet consolidated and local regulatory and working capital requirements. At 31 December 2024, the Group had total regulatory own funds of \u00a32,396 million (2023: \u00a32,073 million), consisting of Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) and Tier 2 capital (2023: consisting entirely of CET1). The Group\u2019s overall regulatory capital requirement was \u00a31,477 million (2023: \u00a31,443 million). Therefore, at 31 December 2024 the Group had surplus capital of \u00a3919 million (2023: \u00a3630 million). The Group\u2019s capital ratio was 20.9% (2023: 18.6%).
The Group\u2019s overall capital requirement comprises a Total Capital Requirement (TCR), which was \u00a31,085 million as at 31 December 2024
(2023: \u00a31,059 million), and a capital requirement in respect of regulatory buffers and our insurance companies, which was \u00a3392 million as
at 31 December 2024 (2023: \u00a3384 million). The TCR is the minimum amount of capital that the Group is required to maintain at all times. The tables below provide a detailed breakdown of the Group\u2019s capital in accordance with IFRS 9:

Expected credit losses are calculated on all of the Group\u2019s financial assets that are measured at amortised cost and all debt instruments that are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. Factors considered in determining whether a default has taken place include how many days past the due date a payment is, deterioration in the credit quality of a counterparty, and knowledge of specific events that could influence a counterparty\u2019s ability to pay. A three stage model is used for calculating expected credit losses, which requires financial assets to be assessed as: \u2022 Performing (stage 1) \u2013 financial assets where there has been no significant increase in credit risk since original recognition; \u2022 Under-performing (stage 2) \u2013 financial assets where there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, but no default; or, \u2022 Non-performing (stage 3) \u2013 financial assets that are in default. For financial assets in stage 1, expected credit losses are calculated based on the credit losses that are expected to be incurred over the following 12-month period. For financial assets in stages 2 and 3, expected credit losses are calculated based on credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the instrument. The Group applies the simplified approach to calculate expected credit losses for trade and other receivables. Under this approach, instruments are not categorised into three stages and expected credit losses are calculated based on the life of the instrument. Wealth Management activities All client credit requests are presented to the relevant Wealth Management approval authorities and counterparty exposures are monitored daily against limits. Loans, overdrafts and advances to clients, as well as certain derivative positions, are secured on a range of assets including real estate (both residential and commercial), cash, client portfolios and investment bonds. The Group does not usually provide loans, overdrafts or advances to clients on an unsecured basis. Where disposal of non-cash collateral is required, in the event of default, the terms and conditions relevant to the specific contract and country will apply. Portfolios held as collateral are marked to market daily and positions compared to clients\u2019 exposures. Credit limits are set following an assessment of the market value and lending value of each type of collateral, depending on the perceived risk associated with the collateral. Clients are contacted if these limits are expected to be or are breached, or if collateral is not sufficient to cover the outstanding exposure. The Group also holds collateral on some short-term advances to banks through reverse repurchase agreements. The collateral accepted includes certain investment-grade securities that can be sold or repledged without default of the provider. At 31 December 2024, the fair value of collateral that could be sold or repledged but had not been, relating solely to these arrangements, was \u00a31,526.6 million (2023: \u00a31,107.6 million). Policies covering various counterparty and market risk limits are set and monitored by the relevant Wealth Management asset and liability management committees. All instruments held within the Wealth Management treasury book have an investment-grade credit rating. Wealth Management takes a conservative approach to its treasury investments, placing them with, or purchasing debt securities issued by, UK and overseas banks and corporates, central banks, supranational banks and sovereigns. Expected credit losses on financial assets at amortised cost within the Wealth Management entities at 31 December 2024 were \u00a32.2 million (2023: \u00a31.0 million). There was one (2023: one) non-performing (stage 3) loan of \u00a36.9 million (2023: \u00a36.2 million) giving rise to \u00a31.8 million expected credit losses (2023: \u00a30.5 million). All other financial assets at amortised cost (excluding trade and other receivables to which the three stage model is not applied) were performing (stage 1) (2023: same). Expected credit losses on financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income within the Wealth Management entities at 31 December 2024 were \u00a30.4 million (2023: \u00a30.2 million). All financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income were performing (stage 1) (2023: same). Other activities Fee debtors and other receivables arise as a result of the Group\u2019s asset management activities and amounts are monitored regularly. Historically, default levels have been insignificant and, unless a client has withdrawn its funds, there is an ongoing relationship between the Group and the client. Fee debtors past due but not in default as at 31 December 2024 were \u00a354.6 million (2023: \u00a350.8 million), the majority of which were less than 90 days past due (2023: less than 90 days). The Group seeks to manage its exposure to credit risk arising from debt securities and derivatives within the investment portfolio by adopting a conservative approach and through ongoing credit analysis, and it may hedge some of the credit risk with credit default swaps. Corporate bond portfolios, when in place, have an investment-grade mandate, and exposure to sub-investment-grade debt is low. Most derivative positions, other than forward foreign exchange contracts and total return swaps, are taken in exchange-traded securities where there is minimal credit risk. Forward foreign exchange positions generally have a maturity between one and three months. The Group\u2019s cash and cash equivalents in the non-Wealth Management entities are held primarily in current accounts, on deposit with well-rated banks, or invested in money market or similar funds. Expected credit losses on financial assets at amortised cost within non-Wealth Management entities at 31 December 2024 were \u00a31.6 million (2023: \u00a30.6 million). Debt securities included \u00a324.0 million of under-performing (stage 2) securities (2023: none) giving rise to \u00a31.4 million of expected credit losses. All other financial assets at amortised cost (excluding trade and other receivables to which the three stage model is not applied) were performing (stage 1) (2023: same).

The Group has a clearly defined liquidity risk management framework in place in the form of a Consolidated Group Internal Liquidity Adequacy Assessment Process (ILAAP). The Group policy is that its subsidiaries should trade solvently, comply with regulatory liquidity requirements and have access to adequate liquidity for all activities undertaken in the normal course of business. As part of its ILAAP, the Group performs stress testing to confirm that sufficient liquidity is available to cover severe but plausible stress events. Wealth Management activities The principal liquidity risk in the Group\u2019s Wealth Management business arises as a result of its banking activities, where the timing of cash flows from liabilities relating to client accounts can be impacted by client action. The objective of the Group\u2019s liquidity policy is to maintain sufficient liquidity within the relevant entities to meet regulatory and prudential requirements, and to cover cash flow imbalances and fluctuations in funding and the timely repayment of funds to depositors. Liquidity positions are actively monitored against both regulatory and internal limits and cash flows are managed so that sufficient liquidity is available to cover potential liquidity risks.

Other activities The Group\u2019s exposure to liquidity risk outside its Wealth Management activities is low. Excluding the Life Company and consolidated funds, the Asset Management segment along with the Group\u2019s capital and treasury management activities together hold cash and cash\u202fequivalents of \u00a3820.0 million (2023: \u00a3832.9 million). Financial liabilities relating to other operating entities are \u00a3354.9 million (2023: \u00a3373.2 million). The Group has a committed revolving credit facility of \u00a3850.0 million (2023: \u00a3850.0 million), which expires on 7 November 2029. No money was drawn down under the facility during 2024 (2023: maximum amount drawn down was \u00a3180.0 million). ", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DisclosureOfLiquidityRiskExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:2138001YYBULX5SZ2H24", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "fact-470": { "value": "(iii) Market risk Market risk is the risk that the value of assets will fluctuate as a result of movements in factors such as market prices, interest rates and foreign exchange rates. Pricing risk Pricing risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market prices other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk. In respect of financial instrument risk, the Group\u2019s exposure to pricing risk is principally through investments held in seed and co- investment capital and deferred employee compensation in the form of fund awards. The Group does not hedge exposures to pricing risk except in relation to seed capital, where it is practical to do so, and in respect of deferred employee compensation awards, where these can be matched by interests in funds managed by the Group. Where financial instruments are held to hedge deferred compensation awards, movements in the fair value of the asset are normally offset by changes in the amounts payable to employees (see note 3). Interest rate risk Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest\u202frates. Wealth Management activities In Wealth Management, interest rate risk is monitored on a daily basis against policies and limits set by the relevant risk committee. Interest rate risk is managed within set limits by matching asset and liability positions and through the use of interest rate swaps. Sensitivity-based and stress-based models are used for monitoring interest rate risk. These models assess the impact of a prescribed shift in interest rates and the potential impact of severe but plausible stress scenarios. Other activities Cash held by the other operating companies is not normally expected to be placed on deposit for longer than three months and is not exposed to significant interest rate risk. The Group\u2019s capital can include investments in corporate investment-grade bonds managed by the Group\u2019s fixed income fund managers. The market risk (including interest rate risk) exposure of these investments is actively monitored against limits set by the Board. Foreign exchange risk Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. Wealth Management activities In Wealth Management, foreign exchange risk is monitored each day against policies and limits set by the relevant risk committees. Foreign exchange risk is managed within set limits by the treasury departments using spot, forward and foreign exchange swap contracts. Other activities The Group\u2019s policy in relation to foreign exchange risks arising from revenue, expenditure and capital currency exposure from its Asset Management activities is generally not to hedge. The Group\u2019s revenue is earned and expenditure incurred in many currencies and the resulting exposure is considered to be a normal part of the Group\u2019s business activities. The Group also has exposure to foreign currency on financial instruments not held in the functional currency of entities which resulted in a \u00a321.4 million gain in the income statement (2023: \u00a319.0 million gain) and exposure arising from net investments in foreign operations which resulted in a \u00a354.4 million loss in other comprehensive income (2023: \u00a358.3 million loss). The Group uses forward foreign exchange contracts with third parties to mitigate some of these exposures. The gain or loss on these contracts is included in the income statement or statement of other comprehensive income, as\u202fappropriate. The use of such instruments is subject to approval by the Group Capital Committee. The sensitivities to market risk at 31 December are estimated as follows:

This enables the Group to hold some of its shares to settle option exercises or for other permitted purposes. Own shares are held at cost and their purchase reduces the Group\u2019s net assets by the amount spent. When shares vest unconditionally or are cancelled, they are transferred from own shares to the profit and loss reserve at their weighted average cost.

Accounting for DB schemes requires an assessment of the likely quantum of future pension payments to be made. If ring-fenced assets are held specifically to meet this cost, the scheme is funded, and if not, it is unfunded. The Group periodically reviews its funded DB schemes using actuarial specialists to assess whether it is on course to meet the expected pension payments that current and former employees are, or will be, entitled to. In the case of a projected shortfall, a plan must be formulated to reverse the deficit. The income statement charge or credit represents the sum of pension entitlements earned by employees in the period, plus a notional net interest charge (if the scheme is in deficit) or income (if it is in surplus) based on the market yields on high quality corporate bonds. Experience differences, principally the difference between actual investment returns and the notional interest amount, as well as actuarial changes in estimating the present value of future liabilities, are recorded in other comprehensive income. Assets or liabilities recognised in the statement of financial position represent the differences between the fair value of plan assets (if any) and the actuarially determined estimates of the present value of future liabilities. The Group closed its largest DB scheme to future accrual on 30 April 2011, although it still operates some small unfunded schemes overseas. This means that no future service will contribute to the closed scheme member benefits but those members continue to have the benefits determined by the Scheme rules as at 30 April 2011. The Group\u2019s exposure to funding DC pension schemes is limited to the contributions it has agreed to make. These contributions generally stop when employment ceases. The income statement charge represents the contributions the Group has agreed to make into employees\u2019 pension schemes in that year. The disclosures within this note are provided mainly in respect of the principal DB scheme, which is the DB section of the funded Schroders Retirement Benefits Scheme (the Scheme).

an independent chairman, three directors appointed by the employer and two directors elected by the Scheme members. The Trustee is
required by law to act in the interest of all relevant beneficiaries and is responsible for setting the investment strategy and for the day-to-
day administration of the benefits. The Trustee\u2019s investment committee comprises five of the Trustee directors and two representatives
of the Group. This committee, which reports to the Trustee board, is responsible for making investment strategy recommendations to
the board of the Trustee and for monitoring the performance of the investment manager.
Under the Scheme, employees are entitled to annual pensions on retirement based on a specified percentage of their final pensionable
salary or, in the case of active members at 30 April 2011 (the date the DB section of the Scheme closed for future accrual), actual
pensionable salaries at that date, for each year of service. These benefits are adjusted for the effects of inflation, subject to a cap of 2.5%
for pensions accrued after 12 August 2007 and 5.0% for pensions accrued before that date.
As at 31 December 2024, there were no active members in the DB section (2023: nil) and 2,528 active members in the DC section (2023:
2,605). The weighted average duration of the Scheme\u2019s DB obligation is 11 years (2023: 13 years). The Group expects that the plan
liabilities will settle gradually over time until all members have left the plan. On termination of the Scheme, any assets that remain after
the Trustee has settled the Scheme\u2019s liabilities will be returned to the Group.

(b) Funding requirements
The last completed triennial valuation of the Scheme was carried out as at 31 December 2023. The funding level at that date was 115%
on the technical provisions basis and no contribution to the Scheme was required. The next triennial valuation is due as at 31 December
2026 and will be performed in 2027.
(c) Risks of the Scheme
The Company and the Trustee have agreed a long-term strategy for reducing investment risk as and when appropriate. This includes
an asset-liability matching policy that aims to reduce the volatility of the funding level of the Scheme by investing in assets that perform
in line with the liabilities of the Scheme.
The most significant risks to which the Scheme exposes the Group are:
Asset volatility
The liabilities are calculated using a discount rate set with reference to corporate bond yields. If assets underperform this yield, this will
reduce the surplus or may create a deficit. The Group manages this risk through a diversified investment strategy, with 64% (2023: 67%)
of Scheme assets held in a liability matching portfolio and the remainder split across semi-liquid credit, liquid growth and credit, and
illiquid growth portfolios. This asset mix is designed to provide returns that match or exceed the unwinding of the discount rate in the
long term, but that can create volatility and risk in the short term. The allocation to growth assets is monitored to ensure it remains
appropriate given the Scheme\u2019s long-term objectives.
Credit risk
The assets of the Scheme include liability driven investments (LDI) and other fixed income instruments that expose the Group to credit
risk. A significant amount of this exposure is to the UK Government as a result of holding gilts and bonds guaranteed by the UK
Government. Other instruments held include derivatives, which are collateralised daily to cover unrealised gains or losses. The minimum
rating for any derivatives counterparty is BBB.
Interest rate risk A decrease in corporate bond yields will increase the value placed on the Scheme\u2019s liabilities for accounting purposes, although this should be partially offset by an increase in the value of the Scheme\u2019s liability matching portfolio, which comprises gilts, corporate bonds and other LDI instruments. The liability matching investments have been designed to mitigate interest rate exposures measured on a funding rather than an accounting basis. One of the principal differences between these bases is that the liability under the funding basis is calculated using a discount rate set with reference to gilt yields; the latter uses corporate bond yields. As a result, the liability matching portfolio hedges against interest rate risk by purchasing instruments that seek to replicate movements in gilt yields rather than corporate bond yields. Movements in the different types of instrument are not exactly correlated, and it is therefore likely that a tracking error can arise when assessing whether the liability matching portfolio has provided an effective hedge against interest rate risk on an accounting basis. At 31 December 2024, the liability matching portfolio was designed to mitigate 95% (2023: 95%) of the Scheme\u2019s exposure to changes in gilt yields. Inflation risk A significant proportion of the Scheme\u2019s benefit obligations are linked to inflation and higher inflation will lead to higher liabilities. However, in most cases, caps on the level of inflationary increases are in place. The majority of the growth assets are either unaffected by or not closely correlated with inflation, which means that an increase in inflation will also decrease any Scheme surplus. The liability matching portfolio includes instruments such as index-linked gilts to provide protection against inflation risk. At 31 December 2024, the liability matching portfolio was designed to mitigate 95% (2023: 95%) of the Scheme\u2019s exposure to inflation risk. Life expectancy The majority of the Scheme\u2019s obligations are to provide benefits for the life of the member, so increases in life expectancy will result in an increase in the liability.

Net interest income is determined by applying the discount rate to the opening net surplus in the Scheme. The Group determines the appropriate discount rate at the end of each year. This is the interest rate that is used to determine the present value of estimated future cash outflows expected to be required to settle the pension obligations. In determining the appropriate discount rate, the Group considers the interest rates of high quality, long-dated corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid. Estimates and judgements The Group estimates the carrying value of the Scheme by applying judgement to determine the assumptions used to calculate the valuation of the pension obligation using member data and applying the Scheme rules. The Scheme assets are mainly quoted in an active market. The sensitivity to those assumptions is set out below. The most significant judgemental assumption relates to mortality rates, which are inherently uncertain. The Group\u2019s mortality assumptions are based on standard mortality tables with Continuous Mortality Investigation core projection factors and a long-term rate of mortality improvement of 1.0% (2023: 1.0%) per annum. An additional adjustment, an \u201cA parameter\u201d set to 0.25% (2023: 0.25%) per annum, allows for the typically higher rate of mortality improvement among members of the Scheme compared with general population statistics. The latest base mortality tables have been adopted with no scaling (2023: nil) following a Scheme specific review of the membership data. The Group reviews its assumptions annually in conjunction with its independent actuaries and considers this adjustment appropriate given the geographic and demographic profile of Scheme members. Other assumptions for pension obligations are based in part on current market conditions. The financial impact of the Scheme on the Group has been determined by independent qualified actuaries, Aon Solutions UK Limited, and is based on an assessment of the Scheme as at 31 December 2024.

1. In July 2024, the trustees of the Scheme agreed that certain employer contributions due to the Defined Contribution section could be met by assets allocated to the
Defined Benefit section. The arrangement is subject to a monthly cap, conditional on certain funding levels being maintained and will be monitored by the trustees.
On 16 June 2023, the High Court issued a ruling in respect of Virgin Media v NTL Pension Trustees II Limited (and others), which has the
potential to affect the Scheme\u2019s liabilities. As the assessment of any potential impact is ongoing, with the expectation of further legal
cases in early 2025 and the possibility of government intervention, no adjustment has been made to the Scheme\u2019s liabilities as at
31 December 2024.
The Group has not materially changed the basis of any of the principal financial assumptions underlying the calculation of the Scheme\u2019s
net financial position during 2024, although such assumptions have been amended where applicable to reflect current market
conditions and expectations.

Accounting for DB schemes requires an assessment of the likely quantum of future pension payments to be made. If ring-fenced assets are held specifically to meet this cost, the scheme is funded, and if not, it is unfunded. The Group periodically reviews its funded DB schemes using actuarial specialists to assess whether it is on course to meet the expected pension payments that current and former employees are, or will be, entitled to. In the case of a projected shortfall, a plan must be formulated to reverse the deficit. The income statement charge or credit represents the sum of pension entitlements earned by employees in the period, plus a notional net interest charge (if the scheme is in deficit) or income (if it is in surplus) based on the market yields on high quality corporate bonds. Experience differences, principally the difference between actual investment returns and the notional interest amount, as well as actuarial changes in estimating the present value of future liabilities, are recorded in other comprehensive income. Assets or liabilities recognised in the statement of financial position represent the differences between the fair value of plan assets (if any) and the actuarially determined estimates of the present value of future liabilities. The Group closed its largest DB scheme to future accrual on 30 April 2011, although it still operates some small unfunded schemes overseas. This means that no future service will contribute to the closed scheme member benefits but those members continue to have the benefits determined by the Scheme rules as at 30 April 2011. The Group\u2019s exposure to funding DC pension schemes is limited to the contributions it has agreed to make. These contributions generally stop when employment ceases. The income statement charge represents the contributions the Group has agreed to make into employees\u2019 pension schemes in that year.

Employees are generally not able to exercise such awards in full until three years after the award has been made, although conditions vary between different types of award. The accounting for share-based awards settled by transferring shares to the employees (equity-settled) differs from the accounting for similar awards settled in cash (cash-settled). The charge for equity-settled share-based payments is determined based on the fair value of the award on the grant date. Such awards can include share awards that may or may not have performance criteria. The initial fair value of the award takes into account the current value of shares expected to be issued (i.e. estimates of\u202fthe likely levels of forfeiture and achievement of performance criteria), and the contribution, if required, by the employee. This initial fair value is charged to the income statement reflecting benefits received from employment, where relevant, in the performance period and over the vesting period. The income statement charge is offset by a credit to the statement of changes in equity, where the award is expected to be settled through the issue of shares. Such awards constituted 3.0% (2023: 5.9%) of salaries, wages and other remuneration (see note 3). The Group may make share-based payments to employees through awards over or linked to the value of ordinary shares and by the grant of market value share options over ordinary shares. These arrangements involve a maximum term of ten years. It is the Group\u2019s practice to hedge all awards to eliminate the impact of changes in the market value of shares between the grant date and the exercise date. Awards that lapse or are forfeited during the vesting period result in a credit to the income statement (reversing the previous charge) in the year in which they lapse or are forfeited. The Group recognised total expenses of \u00a330.1 million (2023: \u00a364.0 million) arising from share-based payment transactions during the year, of which \u00a330.4 million (2023: \u00a362.8 million) were equity-settled share-based payment transactions. In 2024, there was \u00a30.6 million of equity-settled share-based payments included within acquisition costs and related items (2023: \u00a30.7 million) and nil included within restructuring costs (2023: \u00a35.0 million). The Group has the following share-based payment arrangements (further details of the current schemes may be found in the Remuneration report): (a) Deferred Award Plan Awards over ordinary shares made under the Group\u2019s Deferred Award Plan are charged at fair value as operating expenses in the income statement. Fair value is determined at the date of grant and is equal to the market value of the shares at that time. The fair value charges, adjusted to reflect actual levels of vesting, are spread over the performance period and the vesting periods of the awards. Awards are structured as nil-cost options.

The fair value of these awards is determined using the same methods and models used to value the equivalent equity-settled awards. The fair value of the liability is remeasured at each balance sheet date and at settlement date. At 31 December 2024, the carrying value of liabilities arising from cash-settled share-based awards was \u00a35.0 million (2023: \u00a35.8 million). The total intrinsic value at 31 December 2024 of liabilities for which the employee\u2019s right to cash or other assets had vested by that date was \u00a33.5 million (2023: \u00a33.1 million). A credit of \u00a30.3 million (2023: charge of \u00a31.2 million) was recognised during the year.

The Group\u2019s interests in consolidated and unconsolidated structured entities are described below. The Group has interests in structured entities as a result of contractual arrangements arising from its principal activity, the management of assets on behalf of its clients. AUM, excluding deposits by Wealth Management clients and some segregated client portfolios held within the Group\u2019s Asset Management business, is managed within structured entities. These structured entities typically consist of investment vehicles such as Open Ended Investment Companies, Authorised Unit Trusts, Limited Partnerships and Soci\u00e9t\u00e9s d\u2019Investissement \u00e0 Capital Variable, which entitle investors to a percentage of the vehicle\u2019s net asset value. The vehicles are financed by the purchase of units or shares by investors. The Group also has interests in structured entities through proprietary investments. These are mainly into vehicles that help facilitate the Group\u2019s stated aim of generating a return on capital and when it deploys seed and co-investment capital in developing new investment strategies or as it invests alongside its clients. Additionally, the Group holds interests in structured entities for liquidity management purposes, for example via investments in money market funds. The Group does not guarantee returns on the investments it manages or commit to financially support its structured entities. A small proportion of the Group\u2019s AUM, principally real estate funds, is permitted to raise finance through loans from banks and other financial institutions. Where external finance is raised, the Group does not provide a guarantee for the repayment of any borrowings. The business activity of all structured entities in which the Group has an interest, is the management of assets in order to generate investment returns for investors from capital appreciation and/or investment income. The Group earns a management fee from its structured entities, normally based on a percentage of the entity\u2019s net asset value, committed capital value or gross asset value and, where contractually agreed, a performance fee or carried interest, based on outperformance against predetermined benchmarks. In addition, where the Group owns a proportion of the structured entity it is entitled to receive investment returns. (a) Interests arising from managing assets The Group\u2019s interests in structured entities arising as a result of contractual relationships from its principal activity, the management of assets on behalf of its clients, are reflected in the Group\u2019s AUM excluding associates and joint ventures.

Certain AUM are managed outside of structured entities. Within Asset Management, this occurs either because it is formed of segregated investment portfolios for institutional clients comprising directly held investments in individual financial instruments, or because the voting structures of the vehicles themselves allow the investment manager to be removed without cause. Within Wealth Management, AUM is not generally considered to be within structured entities as the contractual relationships exist directly with the client rather than with structured entities, for example discretionary and advisory asset management and banking services. In addition, Wealth Management AUM in the form of\u202floans and advances to customers is conducted outside of structured entities. Certain structured entities are deemed to be controlled by the Group and are accounted for as subsidiaries and consolidated in accordance with the accounting standards. AUM within consolidated structured entities represents the net assets of the beneficial interest in the consolidated structured entity owned by third parties. AUM within unconsolidated structured entities constitutes the remaining balance, represented principally by the net asset value of pooled vehicles managed for Intermediary clients, as well as some assets invested in pooled vehicles on behalf of Institutional and Wealth Management clients. The Group\u2019s beneficial interest in structured entities is not included within AUM and is described separately overleaf. The Group has no direct exposure to losses in relation to the AUM reported above, as the investment risk is borne by clients. The main risk the Group faces from its interest in AUM managed on behalf of clients is the loss of fee income as a result of the withdrawal of funds by clients. Outflows from funds are dependent on market sentiment, asset performance and investor considerations. Revenue includes \u00a31,398.5 million (2023: \u00a31,366.5 million) of fees from structured entities managed by the Group. The table below shows the carrying value of the Group\u2019s interests in structured entities as a result of its management of assets, where income is accrued over the period for which assets are managed before being invoiced. The carrying value represents the Group\u2019s maximum exposure to loss from these\u202finterests.

The Group\u2019s proprietary investments include interests in unconsolidated structured entities in the form of cash and cash equivalents and financial assets. Cash and cash equivalents comprise investments in money market funds, none of which are managed by the Group (2023: nil). Financial assets include seed and co\u2011investment capital, legacy private equity investments and hedges of deferred cash awards. Of the financial assets, \u00a3620.6 million (2023: \u00a3561.7 million) is invested in funds managed by the Group. The Group has no interest apart from its role as investor in those funds for which it does not act as manager. The main risk the Group faces from its interests in unconsolidated structured entities arising from proprietary investments is that the investments will decrease in value. Note 19 includes further information on the Group\u2019s exposure to market risk arising from proprietary investments. The Group has contractual commitments to co-invest alongside its clients and provide a minimum level of capital for certain private assets and alternative vehicles. The Group\u2019s investment call commitments are set out in note 23. The statement of financial position also includes the Life Company assets of \u00a39,458.7 million (2023: \u00a310,008.1 million), which are included in AUM.

The statement of financial position also includes the Life Company assets of \u00a39,458.7 million (2023: \u00a310,008.1 million), which are included in AUM. The exposure to the risks and rewards associated with these assets is borne by unit-linked policyholders, or, where Life Company funds are consolidated, third-party investors in those funds. Financial support for consolidated structured entities where there is no contractual obligation to do so The Group supports some of its funds through the injection of seed capital in order to enable the funds to establish a track record before they are more widely marketed. During the year, the Group purchased units at a cost of \u00a354.2 million (2023: \u00a372.3 million) to provide seed capital to investment funds managed by the Group, of which nil (2023: \u00a328.4 million) resulted in the consolidation of those funds and \u00a354.2 million (2023: \u00a343.9 million) did not.", "dimensions": { "concept": "ifrs-full:DisclosureOfInterestsInUnconsolidatedStructuredEntitiesExplanatory", "language": "en", "entity": "scheme:2138001YYBULX5SZ2H24", "period": "2024-01-01T00:00:00/2025-01-01T00:00:00" } }, "fact-441": { "value": "28 Business combinations The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree and any equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from contingent or deferred consideration arrangements. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognises any non-controlling interest at the fair value of the proportionate share of the acquiree\u2019s identifiable net assets. The Group completed two business combinations during the year ended 31 December 2024. On 7 October 2024, the Group acquired 100% of the issued share capital of Whitley Asset Management (Whitley), a UK wealth management business, for a total consideration of \u00a337.2 million. The acquisition contributed \u00a31.5 billion of Wealth Management AUM and increases the Group\u2019s scale and capability for its UK private clients. On 31 May 2024, the Group acquired a controlling interest of 51% of the issued share capital of Finura Partners Limited (Finura), a professional financial planning business, for a total consideration of nil. The acquisition contributed \u00a30.9 billion of Wealth Management AUM and strengthens the Group\u2019s financial planning capabilities.

The goodwill arising on acquisition is attributable to the value from: \u2013 A broader platform for business growth; \u2013 Talented management and employees; and \u2013 Opportunities for synergies from combining certain activities. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. If the acquisitions had been completed on 1 January 2024, the Group\u2019s net operating income for the year would have been \u00a32,439.0 million and the operating profit for the year on the same basis would have been \u00a3642.7 million. Estimates and judgements The fair value of certain items of consideration, assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires some estimation. For intangible assets this estimation required assumptions regarding the level of future management fees that will be earned over the relevant period. The net impact of changes to these assumptions would be to change the carrying value of individual assets and liabilities with a corresponding change to goodwill.

(a) Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance
with UK-adopted international accounting standards and in
conformity with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
The consolidated financial information presented within these
financial statements has been prepared on the going concern
basis. In making an assessment on going concern, the Directors
have considered a wide range of information relating to present
and future conditions, including future capital requirements,
prediction of profitability and cash flows. These assessments
showed the Group has sufficient capital and liquidity to support
future business requirements and adequate resources to continue
as a going concern for at least 12 months following approval of
the financial statements.
The consolidated statement of financial position is shown in order
of\u202fliquidity. The classification between current and non-current is
set\u202fout in the notes. The Group\u2019s Life Company business is
reported separately. If the assets and liabilities of the Group\u2019s Life
Company business were to be included within existing captions on
the consolidated statement of financial position, the effect would
be to gross up a number of individual line items to a material
extent. By not doing this, the Group can provide a more
transparent presentation that shows the assets of the Life
Company and the related unit-linked liabilities as separate and
distinct from the remainder of the consolidated statement of
financial position.
The Group\u2019s principal accounting policies have been consistently
applied. Further information is provided below and highlighted in
the notes to the accounts.

(b) Future accounting developments
The Group did not implement the requirements of any standards

(c) Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial information includes the total
comprehensive gains or losses, the financial position and the cash
flows of the Company and its subsidiaries, associates and joint
ventures. This includes share ownership trusts established for
certain share-based awards.
In the case of associates and joint ventures, those entities are
presented as single line items in the consolidated income
statement and consolidated statement of financial position (see
note 10).
Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated on
consolidation. Consistent accounting policies have been applied
across the Group in the preparation of the consolidated financial
statements. Details of the Company\u2019s related undertakings are
presented in note 37.
The entities included in the consolidation may vary year on year
due both to the restructuring of the Group (including acquisitions
and disposals) and changes to the number of pooled investment
vehicles controlled by the Group.
Where the Group controls a pooled investment vehicle, it is
consolidated and the third party interest is recorded as a financial
The consolidated cash flow statement separately presents acquisitions and disposals of interests in consolidated pooled vehicles. Cash movements within the pooled vehicles are shown net\u202fwithin cash flows from operating activities as the cash held within the underlying pooled investment vehicles is restricted and is not available to the Group for corporate purposes. This presentation provides more relevant information about the impact of the Group\u2019s investment in pooled vehicles on corporate cash resources than an analysis of the underlying cash flows of the vehicles. The Group records any non-controlling interest at the proportionate share of the acquiree\u2019s identifiable assets. Where an option exists to acquire a further interest in the shares of a subsidiary a financial liability is recognised. These liabilities are measured at the present value of the expected amount payable on exercise. As the option relates to a change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, the non-controlling interest is adjusted and changes in value are recognised directly in equity. If these options expire unexercised, the financial liability is derecognised with the corresponding credit recognised directly in equity. The most significant non-controlling interest relates to third party interests of 19.1% in Schroders Wealth Holdings Limited (SWHL). The consolidated profit after tax of SWHL was \u00a383.8 million for the year (2023: \u00a357.9 million). The net assets of SWHL were \u00a3377.4 million at 31 December 2024 (2023: \u00a3312.1 million). Dividends of \u00a33.6 million were paid to SWHL\u2019s non-controlling interest during the year (2023: \u00a312.4 million).

(d) Net gains and losses on foreign exchange
Many subsidiaries are denominated in currencies other than
sterling. The results of these subsidiaries are translated at the
average rate of exchange. At the year end, the assets and liabilities
are translated at the closing rate of exchange. Gains or losses on
translation are recorded in the consolidated statement of
comprehensive income and as a separate component of equity
together with gains or losses on any hedges of overseas
operations. Such gains or losses are transferred to the
consolidated income statement on disposal or liquidation of the
relevant subsidiary. Transactions undertaken in foreign currencies
are translated into the functional currency of the subsidiary at the
exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction.
Foreign currency assets and liabilities, other than those measured
at historical cost, are translated into the functional currency at the
rates of exchange ruling at the year-end date. Any exchange
differences arising are included within the consolidated income
statement.
