Senior executives at Henderson Global Investors have said that 2016's plummeting markets have prompted a rethink on certain spending and hiring plans, despite "strong" results for 2015 that saw assets under management hit a new high of £92 billion.

Henderson generated record annual net inflows of £8.5 billion during 2015, according to its full-year results on February 11. Pre-tax profits rose 17% to £220 million, while fee income also rose 17%, to £567 million.
