Read MoreHide Full Article

Cohen & Steers (CNS - Free Report) reported preliminary assets under management (AUM) of $71.2 billion as of Nov 30, 2019, down 1.1% from the prior-month level. Net inflows of $630 million were offset by market depreciation of $656 million and distributions of $758 million.

The company recorded total institutional accounts of $31.4 billion at the end of the month, down 1.3% on a sequential basis. Of the total institutional accounts, advisory accounts were $15.3 billion as of Nov 30 and the remaining were subadvisory accounts.
