CEO Rod Flavell says: ‘Clearly, the economic and political backdrops remain uncertain and market conditions remain subdued, but there are signs that an appreciable number of our clients have appetite for investment, with some of them already initiating activity.’ ---------- Copyright 2026 Alliance News Ltd.
