Read MoreHide Full Article

Invesco Ltd. (IVZ - Free Report) announced an increase in its preliminary month-end assets under management (AUM) for November 2017. The company’s AUM came in at $937.6 billion, a rise of 1% from the prior month.

The rise reflected favorable market returns and inflows in PowerShares QQQs. Also, FX increased November AUM by $3.4 billion. However, these were partially offset by a decline in Money Market AUM and net long-term outflows.

Invesco’s preliminary average total AUM for the quarter through Nov 30 was $927.4 billion, while preliminary average active AUM was $731.9 billion.

At the end of the reported month, Invesco’s Equity AUM grew 1.5% from the prior month to $429.8 billion. Further, Fixed Income AUM of $225.6 billion increased marginally from the October 2017 level.

Additionally, Balanced AUM came in at $56.8 billion, rising 2.9% from the prior month. Also, Alternatives AUM increased 1.6% from the preceding month to $142.8 billion. However, Money Market AUM was $82.6 billion, decreasing 1.7% from last month.
    
While the company is witnessing a rise in AUM that will support revenue growth, an overall challenging operating environment seems to be weighing on investors’ mind. So far this year, shares of Invesco have gained 23.2%, underperforming the industry’s rally of 31.7%.



Apart from Invesco, another investment manager, Franklin Resources, Inc. (BEN - Free Report) declared preliminary AUM of $753.2 billion by its subsidiaries for November 2017, reflecting a slight rise from the prior month. Legg Mason, Inc. and T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. (TROW - Free Report) are likely to come up with their monthly AUM figures in the coming days.

Currently, Invesco carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
