         Platform Transformation Programme – Soft Launch Phase Commences

Quilter plc (the “Company”) today announces an update on the progress of the UK Platform
Transformation Programme.

The Company is pleased to announce that the programme has now begun its soft launch phase
in line with the expected timetable. This important phase allows for the verification of the new
platform technology in a live environment. Soft launch is for selected staff and will allow the
Company to further validate system functionality, processes and controls. Activity has begun on
a limited basis and will expand further over the next few months ahead of a controlled, phased
migration of the existing book.

The Platform Transformation Programme continues to make good progress. A further update
will be provided with the Company’s full year results.

Paul Feeney, CEO, comments:

“I am pleased that we have reached our soft launch phase which is an important
milestone. The high quality delivery of this programme remains of utmost importance to us and
we continue to prepare detailed migration plans to ensure customers and advisers remain well
supported throughout the transition period.”
