JHG

Janus Henderson has entered into an agreement to acquire Rantum Capital, a Frankfurt-based private markets investment manager focused on private debt and private equity for SMEs in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland). The deal is intended to expand Janus Henderson's European private markets capabilities and strengthen its presence in Germany. Rantum Capital was founded in 2013 and targets family- and entrepreneur-owned small and mid-sized companies.

BlackRock and Janus Henderson have launched tokenized funds with instant redemption capability, backed by a new $1 billion facility. The facility enables on-chain fund investors to redeem holdings immediately rather than waiting for traditional settlement cycles. This marks a notable step in the adoption of blockchain-based fund infrastructure by major asset managers.

Janus Henderson Group (JHG) reported Q1 2026 operating income of $113.9 million, down sharply from $487.4 million in Q4 2025 and below $153.6 million in Q1 2025. Adjusted operating income came in at $170.8 million for the quarter. The results reflect a significant year-over-year and sequential decline in reported operating income.
