How to read these numbers
Challenge rate is the share of questions that pushed back, pressed for specifics or questioned management’s assumptions. It describes how questions were asked on the calls tracked here; it does not measure whether any view turned out to be right.
Rounding. Rates are rounded to whole percentages, so a small share can show as 0% even when some questions were challenging. The count beside each rate is exact; “none of N questions” means no question was challenging.
No questions recorded. “—” means there is nothing to calculate: no questions were recorded for that period on the calls tracked here. It does not mean there was no activity.
Fewer than 3 questions. A company-level rate is withheld when fewer than 3 questions were recorded for that company; the questions are still counted everywhere else.
Small samples. Profiles with fewer than 10 questions are marked Limited sample.
Reporting periods. Questions are grouped by the calendar quarter each company’s fiscal reporting period maps to, not by the date of the call. Periods without a calendar mapping are listed separately under their fiscal label.

Calendar 2026 Q1
fair to say that the $28 billion in AUM is going to materialize in either client inflows or wrap inflows after the fourth quarter
Show response
Walter confirmed targeting most of the $28 billion Huntington onboarding in Q4 2026.
Any updated outlook around overall G&A expenses there
Show response
Walter indicated AM G&A should be neutral to slightly negative, with back-office transformation momentum still building. Continued efficiency gains expected.
Calendar 2025 Q3
Sounds like the distribution expense ratio outlook most likely would remain within that previous range you had articulated, that 66%, 67% range
Show response
Walter confirmed distribution expense ratio remains within the previously articulated 66-67% range.
It looks like there's some benefit from operating leverage that you saw in the quarter
Show response
Walter confirmed AM expenses will be volume-driven in normal course. Transformation management continues to deliver. Comfortable with expense trajectory.
Calendar 2024 Q4
the bank fees were probably a little bit lower than I would have expected
Show response
Walter confirmed same quality/duration mix, noted the shift from 75% to 87% fixed during the quarter, and quantified the Fed impact at ~30bps for the bank.
Fair to say that over time higher/elevated yields could translate into higher earnings over time
Show response
Walter initially confused the question with the bank before pivoting to RPS. Noted strong sales year and solid liability base, called it a solid number.
