Read MoreHide Full Article
Virtus Investment Partners, Inc. (VRTS - Free Report) recorded a sequential rise of 6.2% in its preliminary assets under management (AUM) balance for November 2023 on the back of favorable market returns. The company reported a month-end AUM of $165.5 billion, which reflected a rise from the Oct 31, 2023, level of $155.8 million.
The company offered services to $2.6 billion of other fee-earning assets. This was excluded from the above-mentioned AUM balance.
In November, Virtus Investment’s open-end funds’ balance increased 5% from the end of the previous month to $54.3 billion. Also, closed-end funds’ balance rose 5.8% to $9.8 billion.
Institutional accounts’ balance sequentially rose 6% to $61.4 billion. Retail separate accounts’ balance of $39.9 billion increased 8.4% from the prior month.
The company’s integrated multi-boutique business model in a rapidly growing industry is likely to support its performance. Yet, elevated operating expenses are expected to hurt Virtus Investment’s bottom line to an extent in the near term.
