Model Portfolio Sales Slowed in First Half of 2024, ISS Market Intelligence Research Finds 

LONDON (1 October 2024) – Model portfolio sales in the UK financial adviser channel slowed during the first half of 2024 as the boom of the past 12 months ran out of steam, new data from ISS Market Intelligence (ISS MI) reveals.

Model portfolio sales grew just 6 percent over the course of 1H 2024, both in aggregate and amongst individual firms using model portfolios, down from 13 percent in the same period a year earlier. Channel gross sales meanwhile grew by 14 percent.

Due to relatively modest sales growth, model portfolios’ share of channel sales reverted to 51 percent, which is where it was at the beginning of 2023.

The data comes from ISS MI’s Model Portfolio Sales Report, which draws on adviser platform data to unpick the market structures, trends and opportunities at a firm, model provider and fund level.
