- EFG accelerated its growth momentum with its strongest net new asset inflows in a decade of CHF 8.4 billion for the full year, corresponding to a growth rate of 5.5%.
- Assets under Management increased to CHF 158.8 billion from CHF 153.8 billion at end-2019, as strong asset inflows and positive market effects offset adverse foreign exchange impacts.
- IFRS net profit increased by 22.4% to CHF 115.3 million.
- Strong acceleration of profitability in 2H20, as effects from revenue and cost management measures materialised. Net profit more than doubled compared to the first half of 2020 and underlying cost/income ratio improved to 78.2%.
- EFG continues to rationalise its footprint and optimise the operational set-up of its eight core offshore booking centres.
- EFG maintained strong capital and liquidity positions, with a Swiss GAAP CET1 ratio of 16.2%, Total Capital Ratio of 19.9% and an Liquidity Coverage Ratio of 188%. In January 2021, EFG further strengthened its capital position as it successfully placed USD 400 million of Additional Tier 1 Notes and bought back approximately 50% of outstanding Tier 2 Notes.
- Proposed dividend of CHF 0.30 per share, unchanged from last year.
