Feb 14 (Reuters) - Australia's largest wealth manager AMP Ltd AMP.AX reported a 35 percent fall in annual underlying net profit on Thursday, matching its guidance and reflecting underperformance at its domestic wealth management arm.

Net cash outflows from its Australian wealth management unit were A$3.97 billion during the year, compared with net cashflows of A$931 million during the previous year.
