Stifel Reports July 2024 Operating Data

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stifel Financial Corp. (NYSE: SF) today reported selected operating results for July 31, 2024 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, “Client assets under administration and fee-based client assets increased 2% from the prior month and reached record levels of $481 billion and $183 billion, respectively. The increases were driven by continued market appreciation and solid recruiting. Client money market and insured product grew roughly $100 million in July. Higher Smart Rate balances more than offset the decline in Sweep balances, as cash sorting continues to slow. Bank loans grew 2% in July, driven by increased Fund Banking, C&I, and Residential Mortgage activity.”
