IFG Group plc (ISE:IJG) (IFG) expects a slowdown in client recruitment at its Saunderson House Ltd due to recent indecisiveness surrounding the sale of that unit, it said in a trading update. IFG flagged that the mooted sale of Saunderson House caused some existing clients to defer making investments, although hasn’t had a material effect on new client wins to date. We may see some knock-on impact in the coming months as the creation of new client pipeline is likely to have been affected to some extent,” it added. Earlier this year IFG proposed to sell Saunderson House to “accelerate value creation for shareholders”.
