INVESTOR RELATIONS

The Board of STM Group PLC (AIM:STM), the cross border financial services provider, is pleased to announce, as expected, that trading has been strong in the second half of the year particularly from the Group's two core business units in trust and company management in Gibraltar and Jersey. The Group's Jersey operation was strengthened further during the year with the acquisition of Zenith Trust Company Limited and the enlarged division has now been successfully integrated and is performing in-line with management's expectations.

The Group is also pleased to report that its newly opened Malta office has made a promising start since its establishment. The Maltese operating licenses were obtained in November 2010 and STM Malta is shortly expected to take on its first new insurance management client. Furthermore, STM Malta has generated significant interest from clients in the Group's international pension products. The Board is confident of capitalising on Malta as a key jurisdiction for the Group.

Accordingly, the Board is confident of the Group meeting market expectations for the current financial year ending 31 December 2010, reflecting solid performance in the period. A further trading update is expected to be made in January 2011 ahead of the Group reporting its preliminary results in early March 2011.
