DWS Achieves Record Profit in H1 2025 Amid Challenging Market

DWS Group announced record profits for the first half of 2025, positioning itself on track to meet its EPS target for 2025. The company achieved significant net inflows and an improved Cost-Income Ratio. DWS reported a profit before tax increase of 32% year-on-year, with net income rising by 34% compared to H1 2024.

In Q2 2025, long-term net flows amounted to EUR 3.7 billion, while total net flows including Cash products and Advisory Services reached EUR 8.5 billion, marking a new record for DWS. Although revenues dipped 1% quarter-on-quarter, they increased 11% year-on-year due to higher management and transaction fees.

In a volatile market environment, DWS saw stable total assets under management at EUR 1,010 billion. The company maintained robust inflows, especially in Passive products including Xtrackers, with infrastructure and liquid real assets also contributing.
