DKN Financial Group Limited has downgraded its profit guidance for the current financial year.

The company has told the Australian Securities Exchange that recent market volatility has impacted funds under advice and that the overall group had experienced a net reduction in net profit after tax of 10 per cent, with the result that guidance for the six months to June, this year, had been revised down from $5.9 million to $5.3 million.
