T. Rowe Price (TROW) Marks a 2.4% Sequential Rise in July AUM

TROW VRTS CNS

T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. (TROW - Free Report) announced its preliminary assets under management (AUM) for July 2023. The company’s month-end AUM of $1.43 trillion represented a 2.4% increase from the previous month on the back of favorable market conditions.

TROW experienced net outflows of $5.4 billion in July 2023.

At the end of the reported month, equity products and multi-asset products aggregated $752 billion and $467 billion, up 2.7% and 3.1%, respectively, on a sequential basis.

Alternative products of $45 billion remained flat sequentially. Fixed-income products, including the money market, constituted $169 billion. This also stayed unchanged from the previous month.

Nevertheless, T. Rowe Price registered $392 billion in target date retirement portfolios in July, which rose 3.2% from the prior month.

A diversified business model, focus on enhancing investment capabilities, broadening distribution reach and improving client partnerships are expected to aid TROW’s long-term growth.

However, increased dependence on investment advisory fees is concerning, as market fluctuations and a sudden slowdown in overall business activities might hurt its revenues. Additionally, rising expenses might hinder bottom-line growth.

Over the past three months, shares of T. Rowe Price have gained 8% compared with the industry’s growth of 13.5%.

 

 

T. Rowe Price currently sports a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank stocks here.
