ATLANTA - Invesco Ltd. (NYSE:IVZ), a global investment management firm, announced a 2.3% decrease in its assets under management (AUM) for the month ending March 31, 2025, compared to the previous month. The company's AUM stood at $1,844.8 billion, down from $1,888.6 billion at the end of February. This news comes as the stock has experienced significant pressure, down over 22% in the past week, according to InvestingPro data.
Despite the overall decline, Invesco experienced net long-term inflows totaling $6.5 billion. However, these inflows were offset by non-management fee earning net outflows of $1.7 billion and unfavorable market returns, which reduced the AUM by $60 billion. Money market net inflows added $5.8 billion. Positive foreign exchange movements and reinvested distributions contributed an increase of $5.2 billion to the AUM. The company maintains a strong dividend profile, with a current yield of 6.75% and a 19-year track record of consistent dividend payments.
The preliminary average total AUM for the quarter ending March 31 was reported at $1,880.8 billion, with active AUM for the same period averaging $1,043.1 billion.
A breakdown of the AUM across different investment strategies shows that ETFs and Index Strategies had an AUM of $490.0 billion, Fundamental Fixed Income held $294.1 billion, and Fundamental Equities accounted for $253.8 billion. Private Markets, APAC Managed, Multi-Asset/Other, and Global Liquidity categories also saw variations in their AUM.
