Man Group CEO Interviewed on Half Year Results

LONDON - Investment management company Man Group today released its half year results for the period ended 30 September 2009 saying a slight rise in assets reflected strong sales, reduced redemptions and improved performance in the second quarter.

In video interviews released on www.cantos.com, CEO Peter Clarke and CFO Kevin Hayes discuss the results including fund performance, market environment and trends, dividend and the outlook.

Regarding the outlook for the hedge fund industry, Mr Clarke said that despite the credit crunch, “significant inflows” will come back into the industry.

“The question is where will those flows go. And they will go to firms that have the resources and product set solution provision that firms like Man have. There will be fewer of those and they will get the lion’s share.”

The interviews and transcripts are available now on www.cantos.com.

Also, an on-demand replay of the group’s analyst presentation webcast will be available later today.
