AMP Limited challenges on the corporate superannuation front have shown up on its third quarter balance sheet with net cashflows down $380 million.
The company provided Q3 net cashflows data to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) today revealing that total corporate superannuation net inflows for the period were $1,089 million, while cash outflows were $1,469 million.
The cashflows do not, as yet, reflect AMP Limited’s loss of the Anglican National Super mandate to Mercer or the impending loss of its Australia Post superannuation mandate.
Commenting on the cashflow data, AMP acting chief executive, Mike Wilkins described the quarter as “testing”, particularly for Australian wealth management and Australian wealth protection although he noted that AMP Capital and AMP Bank had demonstrated ongoing resilience.

The deputy governor has warned that, as super funds’ overseas assets grow and liquidity risks rise, they will need to expand their FX hedge books to manage currency exposure effectively.
Super funds have built on early financial year momentum, as growth funds deliver strong results driven by equities and resilient bonds.
The super fund has announced that Mark Rider will step down from his position of chief investment officer (CIO) after deciding to “semi-retire” from full-time work.
