  • The Private Banking business recorded $150 million in total sales events in 2025, with $50 million from non-recurring professional services, and its pipeline is currently the strongest it has ever been, focusing on regional and community banks.
  • The Asset Management business, under new leadership, achieved $1.4 billion in total ETF flows in 2025 and secured two of its largest-ever engagements, indicating early success in its turnaround efforts.
  • The recent Stratos acquisition completes SEI's three core financial services drivers (administration, asset management, and advice), with early synergy indications from advisors exploring SEI's broader offerings.
  • SEI improved margins by approximately 140 basis points in 2025 and aims for 25-50 basis points annual improvement, driven by automation and AI, while committing to return 90%-100% of free cash flow to shareholders and potentially using debt for future investments, especially to support Stratos.
