ACSA Chief Executive, Robert J Brown said the record result occurred on the back of valuation impacts and ongoing confidence in the key services provided by the securities services industry.

 

“Our members reported a bounce of 19 percent for assets held offshore for Australian investors, compared to an increase of only 7 percent for assets held onshore. While part of this differential is the result of currency valuation changes, it also reflects the long-term trend of institutional investors seeking returns beyond Australia,” Mr Brown said.
