Stifel Reports November 2022 Operating Data
ST. LOUIS, Dec. 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Stifel Financial Corp. (NYSE: SF) today reported selected operating results for November 30, 2022 in an effort to provide timely information to investors on certain key performance metrics. Due to the limited nature of this data, a consistent correlation to earnings should not be assumed.
Ronald J. Kruszewski, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our Wealth Management business continued its strong performance in November. Client cash balances increased 2.1% and continued to increase month-to-date in December, driven by net inflows. Additionally, improved equity market performance and solid recruiting of financial advisors resulted in growth in total client assets and fee-based client assets of 4.5% and 4.7%, respectively. Our Institutional Group is on track for a strong year despite continued headwinds from the market environment. Our M&A pipelines remain strong, but delays in transaction closings will result in lower than anticipated Advisory revenue in the quarter and lower activity levels in our rates business will negatively impact our fixed income transactional business.”
