Today (8 July 2022), GQG reported that it has funds under management (FUM) of US$86.7 billion as of 30 June 2022. The FUM decreased a little over 8% as compared to US$94.6 billion recorded on 31 May 2022.

GQG’s major net income comes from management fees rather than performance fees. As a result, adjustments to the FUM may significantly affect revenue, net profit after tax (NPAT), and cash flow. Due to the company's commitment to paying dividends of 90% of its distributable earnings, the FUM also has an impact on the dividend.
