ST. LOUIS, Dec. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stifel Financial Corp. (NYSE: SF) today reported selected operating results for November 30, 2025, 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, “Total client assets and fee-based client assets reached record highs in November, up 8% and 14% year-over-year, driven by strong recruiting and market gains. Client money market and insured product balances increased 1% from October as growth in Sweep balances more than offset a decline in Smart Rate. Additionally, the impressive growth in Treasury deposits accelerated in November as balances increased 9% from the prior month and nearly doubled from a year ago. In our Institutional Group, client activity levels remain elevated, and despite the impact of the government shutdown, we anticipate a strong fourth quarter.”
