iA Financial’s net income rose 9% year-over-year in the first quarter of 2019 despite deterioration in individual wealth management, the company said Thursday in its quarterly earnings report.<\/p>\n
iA’s net income attributable to common stockholders increased to $151.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 compared to $139.2 million for the same period last year.<\/p>\n
The company’s assets under management increased 4% from a year ago to $181 billion as of March 31.<\/p>\n
Outside of individual wealth management – where iA expected to lose profits due to market turmoil in the second half of 2018 – the company reported “strong growth” across all business lines, the results release said.<\/p>\n
In its retail wealth management division, underwritten product sales of $109.2 million in the quarter were similar to a year ago, the company said, while mutual fund gross sales were $546.3 million, down 18%, and net outflows amounted to $88.5 million. Gross sales of separated funds were $610.9 million, down 1%.<\/p>\n
Retail insurance sales fell to $41.2 million from $46.7 million a year ago, partly due to a decline in excess premiums, while the number of life insurance policies written rose 3%.<\/p>\n
U.S. individual insurance sales increased 11% to $19.2 million, and dealer service sales increased 25% to $109.7 million.<\/p>\n
The group savings and pensions sector grew by 26% year-on-year.<\/p>\n
