Financial services platform Hargreaves Lansdown is being relegated from the FTSE 100 and will join the FTSE 250, index provider FTSE Russell has announced.

This is the first time Hargreaves Lansdown has been demoted the UK’s blue-chip index since its promotion in 2011.

Private equity investment firm Intermediate Capital Group is moving in the opposite direction after its year-on-year revenue grew 135.3% in September 2023 and shares have risen 38% year on year.

FTSE Russell also announced changes in the FTSE 250 with the promotion of investment company Asia Dragon Trust. Its total assets have grown to £736.4m after the absorption of its stablemate abrdn New Dawn earlier this year.

Other additions to the FTSE 250 include AO World, Hochschild Mining, PPHE Hotel Group, Trustpilot Group and Tullow Oil.

Conversely, Liontrust Asset Management will leave the mid-cap index, after reporting a statutory loss before tax of £10.1m in its last six-months results.

Its chief executive John Ions explained that Liontrust has been financially impacted by recent acquisitions and net outflows out of its funds as most of its assets are invested in UK equities, an asset class out of favour with investors.
