Performance fees improved to €30m in Q3 2020 versus €25m in the same quarter of 2019. The cost/income ratio remained flat at 51.2%.

Amundi CEO Yves Perrier said: “Thanks to its diversified business model and its operating efficiency, Amundi is therefore confirming its ability to combine growth and profitability, in spite of a market environment, which remains fragile due to the Covid-19 crisis.

“Asia is a major focus of Amundi’s expansion strategy. In the space of five years, Amundi’s Asian AuM tripled, reaching more than €300bn. The launch of the new subsidiary in China with BoC give Amundi a unique position in this fast-developing market. Thanks to this new growth driver and the favourable momentum of its other activities in Asia, Amundi is targeting AuM of €500bn in the region by 2025.”

Notably, Amundi recently announced a new joint-venture with Chinese firm BOC Wealth Management.
