aberdeen asset managemnt this company has fallen from 1.90 per share in may down to 1.34 now. despite having really good broker recommendations, as being a strong buy. Lets hear views and whether or not if you thing they have a good chance of recovery. I have quite a few shares and am wondering whether to stick with or move the money into something else.

Their owns funds not doing especially well just now I think ?
Perhaps we need to wait and see how Scottish Widows will be absorbed ?
Seems their may still be turmoil in emerging markets ?
Probably a share to watch and buy on a bad day ?
Do you agree Chris ?

I do agree rekirham, that's why i have started buying on the dips.

ABERDEEN RECEIVES REGULATORY APPROVAL FOR ACQUISITION OF SCOTTISH WIDOWS INVESTMENT PARTNERSHIP

Further to the announcement by Aberdeen Asset Management PLC ("Aberdeen" or "Company") on 18 November 2013 relating to the acquisition of Scottish Widows Investment Partnership Group Limited ("SWIP"), Aberdeen is pleased to announce that the Financial Conduct Authority has today confirmed its consent to the proposed change of control. As a result, the acquisition is expected to complete following close of business on 31 March 2014. The Company expects to issue a statement on 1 April 2014 to confirm that completion has taken place and to issue a trading update on the same day.

Martin Gilbert, chief executive of Aberdeen Asset Management, comments:
"I am delighted that we have obtained regulatory approval for the acquisition of SWIP. We will continue to work closely with SWIP and Lloyds Banking Group to ensure a smooth completion process. The way we have already worked together to develop a structured integration plan is very encouraging and means that the migration process will begin very shortly after completion. This co-operation confirms my belief that the combination of the two businesses and our strategic relationship with Lloyds will be of great long-term benefit to our shareholders and clients, whom I would like to thank for their continued support throughout this process. Everyone at Aberdeen is looking forward to working with our new colleagues from SWIP.

"The deal combines and broadens the investment capabilities of both businesses. The combined business will have a far stronger and more diverse range of investment management skills as well as significant scale across asset classes and geographies, which will enable us to deliver an even better service for our enlarged client base. This includes investors who will benefit from yesterday's Budget announcement giving them more freedom to invest their pension pots when they retire."

Credit Suisse sees "tough start" for Aberdeen
27 March 2014 11:31

Credit Suisse expects a "tough start to the year" for asset manager Aberdeen and has reduced its target price for the stock from 470p to 415p, keeping a 'neutral' rating.

The bank admitted that the shares - trading at 11 times earnings for the 2015 calendar year - are "not expensive" but sees a lack of catalysts for the share price in the near term.

Credit Suisse said that at Aberdeen's listed UK and offshore funds, which capture around 21% of its assets under management, there have been net outflows of around £2.9bn during January and February alone, which compares to net outflows of £2.3bn across the fourth quarter of 2013.

Key listed funds including GEM equities, Asia Pacific equities and Global equities all continued to experience net outflows during the first two months of the year, according to Morningstar.

"Whilst we have less visibility on institutional mandates and the funding of the pipeline, we expect a relatively cautious start to 2014 which is unlikely to have been helped by continued subdued sentiment towards emerging markets."

The stock was up 0.3% at 388.3p by 11:42.
