The SS&C GlobeOp Forward Redemption Indicator for April 2020 measured 3.02 per cent, up from 3.11 per cent in March.“SS&C GlobeOp’s Forward Redemption Indicator for April 2020 was 3.02 per cent, up somewhat from the 2.51 per cent reported for the same period a year ago,” says Bill Stone, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, SS&C Technologies. “This increase follows three consecutive months of comparatively lower redemption notices, and it should also be noted that for the year-to-date, cumulative redemptions are running below the 2019 level. With this latest single month’s increase in redemptions, it is too early to say whether the recent favourable trend has ended, or what impact the COVID-19 outbreak is having on investor allocations.”
