Since the start of the last interest rate cycle in Q4'16
.
Client cash as a % of assets has averaged ~5%†
Our client cash balances are largely operational
- Typically small balances used for rebalancing, paying
advisory fees, and customer withdrawals
-
This is reflected in the low client cash balances, which
average -5% or $7K per account
The primary factor that moves that % of client cash up or down
is market sentiment rather than rate seeking behavior
When clients are fully deployed in the market, the ratio
has gone as low as ~4%, like we saw in 2019
In Q1 2023, cash was 4.6% of client assets, slightly below the
long-term average
Cash balances declined in the quarter, driven by record
net buying of $37B
