Read MoreHide Full Article
Victory Capital Holdings (VCTR - Free Report) reported assets under management (AUM) of $161.86 billion for August 2023. This reflects a 2.4% decline from the $165.87 billion reported as of Jul 31, 2023.
By asset classes, at the end of August, VCTR’s U.S. Mid Cap Equity AUM fell 4% from the July level to $29.7 billion. The U.S. Small Cap Equity AUM of $15.7 billion declined around 4%. Further, the U.S. Large Cap Equity AUM increased 1.9% to $12.19 billion. The Global/Non-U.S. Equity AUM was up 3.4% to $15.4 billion.
Also, Victory Capital recorded $56.4 billion in Solutions, down 1.7% from July 2023. Fixed Income AUM was $25.8 billion, which declined 1.2% from the prior month. The Alternative Investment asset balance was down marginally on a sequential basis to $3.21 billion.
Nonetheless, Money Market/Short Term assets rose marginally from July 2023 to $3.19 billion.
The sound positioning of Victory Capital’s integrated multi-boutique business model in a rapidly evolving industry and the effectiveness of the distribution platform are likely to support its performance in the coming days. Favorable market performance is another tailwind.
Shares of VCTR have gained 11.6% over the past six months compared with the industry's upside of 16.3%.

Virtus Investment Partners, Inc. (VRTS - Free Report) recorded a sequential decrease in its preliminary AUM balance for August 2023 on the back of unfavorable market returns. The company reported a month-end AUM of $169.4 billion, which reflected a fall of 1.5% from the Jul 31 level.
