Stars
Private Assets and Alternatives
Schroders Capital now manages about 65 billion GBP in private assets (2025), led by private equity, real estate and infrastructure, showing mid-teens AUM CAGR since 2019 and outsized fee margins vs public strategies.
With institutional demand for non-correlated returns rising, Schroders must inject several billion GBP annually into this segment to sustain deal flow and platform scale.
This unit is the primary engine for future high-margin revenue growth, expected to contribute over 40% of group fee income growth by 2027 based on current pipelines and fee rates.
Wealth Management Expansion
Schroders' Wealth Management (Schroders Personal Wealth plus recent benchmark acquisitions) holds a high share in the UK advice market, serving ~350k clients and £30bn AUM as of Dec 2025, benefiting from a 6–8% CAGR in advice demand to 2028.
Sustainability and Impact Investing
Schroders leads early in sophisticated ESG integration and impact-driven products, claiming roughly 4% of global sustainable AUM—about $100bn of its £800bn AuM as of Dec 2025—and positioning it as a Stars segment in the BCG matrix.
Rising regulation (EU SFDR/CSRD enforcement since 2023) and a 2024-25 retail shift—sustainable fund flows up ~18% YoY—keep this high-growth market share strong.
Maintaining edge requires continued spend on proprietary tools like SustainEx; Schroders invested ~£40m in data and analytics R&D in 2024 to fend off rivals and scale impact offerings.
Institutional Solutions and LDI
Institutional Solutions and LDI sits in Schroders BCG Matrix as a star: demand for Liability-Driven Investment (LDI) de-risking rose after 2023 pension reforms, with UK LDI assets ~£300bn by 2024 and Schroders holding a top-five market share (~8% estimated) via bespoke outsourced CIOs.
Schroders wins large mandates by pairing customized LDI portfolios with real-time risk analytics and hedging; their multi-asset risk platform manages >£50bn of LDI exposures, needing continuous tech and quant upgrades to stay competitive.
Momentum continues: 2025 pipeline includes several pension buy-ins/buyouts >£1bn, so sustained investment in analytics, pieces of infrastructure, and lower-latency pricing are must-haves to retain mandates.
- UK LDI market ~£300bn (2024)
- Schroders est. market share ~8%
- LDI exposures managed >£50bn on risk platform
- Pipeline: multiple >£1bn mandates in 2025
Digital Distribution Platforms
Collaborations with fintechs and Schroders’ proprietary digital ecosystems are a high-growth frontier to reach retail investors; digital AUM in wealth platforms grew ~18% yr/yr in 2024, and Schroders aims to capture a slice of the $12.5tn global retail investable market.
Securing a digital-first distribution foothold lets Schroders take share from slower incumbents; digital channels accounted for ~30% of new retail flows across peers in 2024.
These platforms need sustained spend on cybersecurity and UX — estimated capex and opex of 1–1.5% of AUM annually — to convert growth into future cash generators.
- High-growth: digital AUM +18% (2024)
- Market size: $12.5tn global retail investable market
- Flows: digital ~30% of new retail inflows (2024)
- Investment need: 1–1.5% AUM p.a. for security/UX

Cash Cows
Global Equities Management
