Stifel Reports April 2023 Operating Data
ST. LOUIS, May 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stifel Financial Corp. (NYSE: SF) today reported selected operating results for April 30, 2023 in an effort to provide timely information to investors on certain key performance metrics. Due to the limited nature of this data, a consistent correlation to earnings should not be assumed.
Ronald J. Kruszewski, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Total client assets increased modestly over the prior month due primarily to the benefits of higher equity markets. Total client cash fell 3% in April driven by seasonal tax payments. We continued to see the benefits of our client cash initiatives as both Smart Rate & and money market mutual fund balances increased in April. Additionally, cash sorting activity has slowed in May. Our institutional business continues to face headwinds as decreased volatility has pressured the equity business and investment banking activity remains subdued.”
