Headquartered in Atlanta, GA, Invesco is a trusted name in the investment industry. Founded in 1978, the company helped investors diversify by giving access to a wide selection from various asset classes, sectors and markets. Invesco’s average total assets under management for the quarter through Dec 31, 2023, were $1,515.6 billion.

The company offers financial services worldwide through offices located in 25 countries and has more than 8,400 employees. This top global investment management company caters to a wide range of mutual funds, including equity and fixed-income funds, and domestic and international funds.

Uncertainties over the Federal Reserve’s interest decision could impact corporate performance, which will impact stock prices, making it risky for investors who lack professional expertise in managing funds. We have thus selected three Invesco mutual funds for investors who wish to diversify in various asset classes. The fund house has a reputation as a trusted partner and long-term financial success. Since the majority of the fund’s investment is in sectors like technology, industrial cyclical, finance, energy and utilities, they are expected to perform well in the future.

These funds boast a Zacks Mutual Fund Rank #1 (Strong Buy), have positive three-year and five-year annualized returns, minimum initial investments within $5000, and carry a low expense ratio compared to the category average.
