Netwealth deal delivers

IAM continues to serve 1740 clients across Australia, with its fixed-income offerings proving popular among advisors partnering with ASX-listed Netwealth (ASX:NWL).

“Seven experienced sales executives from a competitor will be starting with us soon,” IAM wrote, framing this as evidence of a strategy to “pivot costs towards revenue”.

NWL demand is so strong, that “these hires are needed”, IAM wrote.

Client growth at record

Client acquisition soared to record levels in the December quarter, reflecting a remarkable 71 per cent year-over-year increase.

IAM’s debt capital markets (DCM) division remains strong, the company reported, as trading remains high through the holiday period.
