Invesco Ltd. (IVZ - Free Report) announced an increase in its preliminary month-end assets under management (AUM) for Jul 2017. The company’s AUM came in at $876.9 billion, up 2.2% from $858.3 billion in the prior month.

The rise reflected favorable market returns, higher Money Market AUM and net long-term inflows, partly offset by outflows in PowerShares QQQs. Further, FX increased July AUM by $3.7 billion.

Invesco’s preliminary average total AUM for the quarter through Jul 31 was $869.4 billion while preliminary average active AUM was $709.5 billion.

While the company is witnessing a rise in AUM, an overall challenging operating environment seems to be weighing on the investors’ mind. So far this year, shares of Invesco have gained 13.9%, underperforming the industry’s rally of 19.7%.
