"Period").

Commenting, John Ions, Chief Executive, said:
"Liontrust has enjoyed a strong start to the new financial year
with net inflows of GBP320 million over the quarter.
"We have also begun the year with seven shortlisted funds for
the Investment Week Fund Manager of the Year Awards on 5 July and a
nomination for Global Group of the Year. These nominations,
combined with the Monthly Income Bond Fund winning the GBP
Corporate Bond Fund Award and Special Situations Fund being named
best UK Growth Fund, shows the strength of our fund management
capability.
"Further demonstration of our sales and marketing strength has
come from the successful launches of the Global Fixed Income funds
managed by David Roberts, Phil Milburn and Donald Phillips.
"The quality of our fund management teams is a key
differentiator for Liontrust and means the Company is well
positioned to continue to grow."
