Annual Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management of the company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). The company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Under the supervision, and with the participation of the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, management assessed the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment, management concluded that the company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2024.
The company's independent registered public accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, has issued a report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, which is included herein.
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Invesco Ltd.
Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Invesco Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of income, of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.
Basis for Opinions
The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Annual Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 8. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets Impairment Assessment for Acquired Management Contracts of U.S. Retail Mutual Funds
As described in Notes 1 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s management contracts indefinite-lived intangible assets, net balance was $5,651.7 million as of December 31, 2024, of which a significant portion relates to indefinite-lived intangible assets related to acquired management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds. Management tests for impairment annually as of October 1 or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. If the qualitative assessment indicates that an impairment may be likely or management elects to not perform the qualitative assessment, management performs a quantitative test to determine the fair value of the intangible assets and compares the fair value with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized. Fair value is generally determined using an income approach where estimated future cash flows are discounted to arrive at a single present value amount. As disclosed by management, the most sensitive assumptions used in the income approach are the long-term growth rate and the discount rate.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment assessment for acquired management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value estimate of the intangible assets; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to the long-term growth rate and the discount rate; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment assessment for acquired management contracts of U.S. retail mutual funds, including controls over the valuation of the acquired management contracts of U.S. retail mutual fund indefinite-lived intangible assets. These procedures also included, among others (i) testing management’s process for developing the fair value estimate of the indefinite lived intangible assets; (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of the income approach used by management; (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the income approach; and (iv) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used by management related to the long-term growth rate and the discount rate. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating (i) the appropriateness of the income approach and (ii) the reasonableness of the long-term growth rate and discount rate assumptions.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Corporate Information
The company provides retail and institutional clients with an array of investment management capabilities. The company operates globally and its sole business is investment management.
Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
Segment Disclosures. On January 1, 2024, the company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, "Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" (ASU 2023-07). The standard requires disclosure of the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) and information about segment expenses on a quarterly and annual basis. The adoption of this amendment resulted in additional disclosures, see Note 16, "Segment and Geographic Information."
Pending Accounting Pronouncements
Income Tax Disclosures. In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, "Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" (ASU 2023-09). The standard requires disaggregated income tax disclosures of the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this amendment will result in incremental disclosures within the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2024-03, "Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses" (ASU 2024-03). The standard requires the disaggregated disclosure of certain income statement items. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and early adoption is permitted. The company is currently evaluating the impact of this amendment on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
Basis of Presentation
The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. and with rules and regulations of the SEC and consolidate the financial statements of the Parent and all of its controlled subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which are necessary for the fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented. All significant intercompany transactions, balances, revenues and expenses are eliminated upon consolidation.
The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared primarily on the historical cost basis; however, certain items are presented using other bases such as fair value, where such treatment is required or voluntarily elected. The financial statements of subsidiaries, with the exception of certain CIP, are prepared for the same reporting period as the Parent and use consistent accounting policies, which, where applicable, have been adjusted to U.S. GAAP from local generally accepted accounting principles or reporting regulations. The financial information of certain CIP is included in the company's Consolidated Financial Statements on a lag (generally three months) based upon the availability of fund financial information. Noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities represents the interests in certain entities consolidated by the company either because the company has control over the entity or has determined that it is the primary beneficiary, but the company does not own all of the entity's equity. To the extent that noncontrolling interests represent equity which is redeemable or convertible for cash or other assets at the option of the equity holder, these are deemed to represent temporary equity, and are classified as equity attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Nonredeemable noncontrolling interests are classified as a component of permanent equity.
Basis of Accounting and Consolidation
In addition to consolidating the financial statements of the Parent and all of its controlled subsidiaries, the Consolidated Financial Statements include the consolidation of certain investment products that meet the definition of either a VOE, if the company is deemed to have a controlling financial interest in the fund, or a VIE, if the company has been deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the fund.
Certain of these investment products including, but not limited to, CLOs, funds that are structured as partnership entities (such as private equity funds, real estate funds and fund-of-funds) and certain non-U.S. mutual funds are considered, for accounting and consolidation analysis purposes, to be VIEs. A VIE, in the context of the company and its managed funds, is a fund that does not have sufficient equity to finance its operations without additional subordinated financial support, or a fund for which the risks and rewards of ownership are not directly linked to voting interests. If the company is deemed to have the power to direct the activities of the fund that most significantly impact the fund's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses/right to receive benefits from the fund that could potentially be significant to the fund, then the company is deemed to be the fund's primary beneficiary and is required to consolidate the fund.
The company's economic risk with respect to each investment in a CIP is limited to its equity ownership and any uncollected management and performance fees. See Note 18, "Consolidated Investment Products," for additional information regarding the impact of CIP.
The company assesses modifications to existing funds on an ongoing basis to determine if a significant reconsideration event has occurred. The consolidation analysis includes a detailed review of the terms of the fund's governing documents and a comparison of the significant terms against the consolidation criteria in ASC Topic 810, including a determination of whether the fund is a VIE or a VOE. Seed capital and co-investments in managed funds in which the company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary or in which the company has a controlling financial interest are consolidated if the impact of doing so is deemed material. If the company subsequently determines that it no longer controls the managed funds in which it has invested, or no longer has an obligation to absorb losses or rights to receive benefits, the company will deconsolidate the funds. If there are any remaining holdings in the managed funds or if the managed funds are not required to be consolidated, the investment is no longer accounted for as CIP and is moved to the investments line item in the balance sheet and is accounted for as described in the "Investments" accounting policy below.
All of the investments held by VIEs are presented at fair value in the company's Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2024 and 2023. The company has elected the fair value option under ASC Topic 825-10-25 for measuring the collateral assets held and notes issued by its consolidated CLOs to eliminate inconsistencies that would otherwise arise from using different accounting bases. The notes issued by consolidated CLOs are measured under the measurement alternative that requires the reporting entity to measure both the financial assets and liabilities of the CLOs using the more observable fair value. By electing the fair value option, the notes issued by the CLOs are measured based on the fair value of the net assets of the CLOs. Gains or losses related to assets and liabilities of consolidated CLOs are offset in Other income/(expense) of CIP, net in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Net income (loss) attributable to Invesco Ltd. includes only the changes in fair value of the company’s economic interests in the consolidated CLOs due to the elimination of net income (loss) related to noncontrolling interests.
Reclassifications
During the year ended December 31, 2024, expenses for client-related travel and entertainment and outsourced services were reclassified to General and administrative expenses. The impact of this reclassification on the Consolidated Statements of Income is as follows:
-
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2024: decreased Marketing and Property, office and technology expenses by $28.9 million and $92.7 million, respectively, and increased General and administrative by $121.6 million.
-
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2023: decreased Marketing and Property, office and technology expenses by $21.3 million and $95.9 million, respectively, and increased General and administrative by $117.2 million.
The reclassification had no impact on our reported Operating revenues, Operating income, Net income, or any internal performance measure on which management is compensated.
Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the company and IndusInd International Holdings Limited, a company organized under the laws of the Republic of Mauritius, entered into a definitive agreement to form a joint venture through the sale of 60% of the company's stake in Invesco Asset Management (India) Private Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary. The transaction is expected to close in 2025. As a result, Invesco Asset Management (India) Private Limited's business has been classified as held for sale and the associated assets and liabilities are presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheets within Other assets and Accounts payable and accrued expenses, respectively.
Use of Estimates
In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities. The primary estimates and assumptions relate to goodwill and intangible impairment, certain investments which are carried at fair value, post-employment benefit plan obligations, income taxes and contingent losses. Additionally, estimation is involved when determining investment and debt valuation for certain CIP; however, changes in the fair values of these amounts are largely offset by noncontrolling interests. Use of available information and application of judgment are inherent in the formation of estimates. Actual results in the future could differ from such estimates, and the differences may be material to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Change in Accounting Estimate
In September 2024, the company made changes to the retirement criteria for vesting of currently outstanding long-term awards which resulted in a change in estimate for long-term awards granted to employees who meet the criteria. The change to the criteria became effective during the year ended December 31, 2024 and resulted in the accelerated recognition of $147.6 million in Employee compensation expense.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash held at banks and short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less (primarily held in affiliated money market funds). Cash and cash equivalents of CIP are not available for general use by the company and are included in Investments and other assets of CIP on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Cash balances may not be readily accessible to the Parent due to capital adequacy requirements of certain of our subsidiaries. We meet these requirements in part by holding Cash and cash equivalents. This retained cash can be used for general business purposes in the countries where it is located and is therefore not considered restricted cash.
Investments
The majority of the company’s investment balances relate to balances held in affiliated funds and equity method investees. In the normal course of business, the company invests in various types of affiliated investment products, either as “seed capital” or as longer-term investments alongside third-party investors, typically referred to as “co-investments.” Seed capital investments are investments held in Invesco managed funds with the purpose of providing capital to the funds during their development periods to allow the funds to achieve critical mass, establish their track records and obtain third-party investments. Seed capital may also be held for regulatory purposes in certain jurisdictions. Co-investments are often required of the investment manager by third-party investors in closed-ended funds to demonstrate an alignment of the investment manager’s interests with those of the third-party investors. The company also invests in affiliated funds in connection with its deferred compensation plans.
Investments are categorized as equity investments, equity method investments and other investments. See Note 3, “Investments,” for additional details.
Equity investments include seed capital, investments held to settle the company's deferred compensation plan liabilities and other equity securities. Equity investments are securities bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term. Equity investments are measured at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of equity investments are included in income.
Equity method investments include investments over which the company is deemed to have significant influence. Significant influence typically exists when the company owns between 20% to 50% of an investee, although other factors are considered including representation on the Board, the concentration of other shareholders and the impacts of contractual arrangements. The equity method of accounting requires that the investment is initially recorded at cost, including any excess value paid over the book value of the investment acquired. The carrying amount of the investment is increased or decreased to recognize the company's share of the after-tax profit or loss of the investee after the date of acquisition and is decreased as distributions are received. Distributions received from equity method investees are classified in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as either operating or investing activities based on the nature of the distribution. The proportionate share of income or loss is included in Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Fair Value
Fair value is determined using a valuation hierarchy (discussed in Note 2, “Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities”), generally by reference to an active trading market, using quoted closing or bid prices as of each reporting period end. When a readily ascertainable market value does not exist for an investment, the fair value is calculated based on the expected cash flows of its underlying net asset base, taking into account applicable discount rates and other factors. Judgment is used to ascertain if a formerly active market has become inactive and in determining fair values when markets have become inactive. As a practical expedient, the company may elect to use NAV as the fair value for certain CIP.
Property, Equipment, Software and Depreciation
Property, equipment and software includes owned property, leasehold improvements, computer hardware/software and other equipment and is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization and any previously recorded impairment in value. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized; minor replacements, maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Amounts incurred are presented as work-in-progress until the construction or purchase of the property and equipment is substantially complete and ready for its intended use, at which point, the asset will begin to be depreciated or amortized. Depreciation or amortization is provided on property, equipment and software at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, on a straight-line basis over the asset's expected useful life: owned buildings over 50 years, leasehold improvements over the shorter of the lease term or useful life of the improvement; and computers and other equipment between three and seven years.
Purchased and internally developed software is capitalized if the costs can be measured reliably, and it is probable that the asset will generate future economic benefits. For internally developed software, the company capitalizes certain internal and external costs incurred related to software development activities that will generate future economic benefits. These capitalized costs are amortized into operating expenses on a straight-line basis over the software's useful life, generally five to seven years. Depreciation or amortization expense is included in Property, office and technology expense on the Consolidated Income Statement.
The company reevaluates the useful life determination for property, equipment and software each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining useful life. Upon a sale or retirement, the asset cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the Consolidated Financial Statements and any related gain or loss is reflected in income.
The carrying amounts of property, equipment and software are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. At each reporting date, an assessment is made to identify any indicators of impairment. An impairment test is performed if an impairment indicator is identified.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets identified on the acquisition of a business are capitalized separately from goodwill if the fair value can be measured reliably on initial recognition (transaction date). Intangible assets consist primarily of mutual fund and other client management contracts, customer relationships and distribution agreements. Certain management contracts are managed and operated on a single global platform and are therefore reviewed in aggregate as one unit of valuation. These contracts are considered interchangeable because investors may freely transfer between funds.
Intangible assets that are determined to be finite-lived are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives, from two to ten years, which reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits are realized. The company reviews intangible assets each reporting period to determine whether events or circumstances have occurred that indicate the expected period of economic benefit may no longer be appropriate or there is an indication of impairment. If there is an indication of impairment, management will perform an impairment analysis.
Where evidence exists that the underlying agreements have a high likelihood of continued renewal at little or no cost to the company, the intangible asset is assigned an indefinite life and reviewed for impairment on an annual basis. Intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment annually as of October 1st or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. When testing intangible assets for impairment, management has the option to first perform a qualitative assessment. If the qualitative assessment indicates that an impairment may be likely or management elected to not perform the qualitative assessment, management performs a quantitative test to determine the fair value of the intangible assets and compares the fair value with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. Fair value is generally determined using an income approach where estimated future cash flows are discounted to arrive at a single present value amount.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the identifiable net assets of businesses acquired and is recorded in the functional currency of the acquired entity. Goodwill is recognized as an asset and is reviewed for impairment annually as of October 1st and between annual tests when events and circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred.
The company has determined that it has one reporting unit for goodwill impairment testing purposes which is consistent with internal management reporting and management's oversight of operations. The company evaluated the components of its business, which are business units one level below the operating segment level in making this determination. The company's operating segment represents one reporting unit because all of the components are similar due to the common nature of products and services offered, type of clients, methods of distribution, manner in which each component is operated, extent to which they share assets and resources and the extent to which they support and benefit from common product development efforts.
The company has the option to first qualitatively assess whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If the qualitative assessment indicates that an impairment may be likely or management elected to not perform the qualitative assessment, a quantitative impairment test is performed at the reporting unit level. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized for the reporting unit in an amount equal to that excess. However, the impairment cannot exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.
The principal method of determining fair value of the reporting unit is an income approach where estimated future cash flows are discounted to arrive at a single present value amount. The discount rate used is derived based on the weighted average cost of capital and the risk profile of the stream of future cash flows. The calculated present value amount is the fair value of the reporting unit.
Debt Issuance Costs
Debt issuance costs related to the issuance of senior notes are presented as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability. Debt issuance costs related to the company's revolving credit agreement are presented as a deferred asset within Other assets on the company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. Debt issuance costs are amortized over the term of the debt using the effective interest method and are reflected in Interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. After initial recognition, debt issuance costs are measured at amortized cost.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is measured and recognized based on the five step process outlined in ASC Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." Revenue is determined based on the transaction price negotiated with the customer, net of discounts, value added tax and other sales-related taxes.
Investment management fees are derived from providing professional services to manage client accounts and sponsored investment vehicles. Investment management services are satisfied over time as the services are provided and are typically based upon a percentage of the value of the client’s AUM. Investment management fees for certain arrangements include fees for distribution and administrative-related services. Any fees collected in advance are deferred and recognized as income over the period in which services are rendered.
Service fees are earned for services rendered relating to fund accounting, transfer agent, administrative and/or other maintenance activities performed for sponsored investment vehicles. Service fees are generally based upon a percentage of the value of the AUM. Service fees are also earned from the delivery of digital solutions to our customers. All of these services are satisfied over time.
The company provides distribution services to certain sponsored investment vehicles. Fees are generally earned based upon a percentage of the value of the AUM, as the fee amounts do not crystallize completely upon the sale of a share or unit. Accordingly, the distribution fee revenues are recognized over time as the amount of the fees becomes known. For example, U.S. distribution fees can include 12b-1 fees earned from certain mutual funds to cover allowable sales and marketing expenses for those funds and also include asset-based sales charges paid by certain mutual funds for a period of time after the sale of those funds. Generally, retail products offered outside of the U.S. do not generate a separate distribution fee; the quoted management fee rate is inclusive of these services. The company also has certain arrangements whereby the distribution fees are paid upon the subscription or redemption of a share or unit.
Performance fee revenues, including carried interests and performance fees related to partnership investments and separate accounts, are generated on certain management contracts when performance hurdles are achieved. Such fee revenues are recorded in Operating revenues when the contractual performance criteria have been met and when it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue recognized will not occur in future reporting periods. Cash receipt of performance fees generally occurs after the performance fee revenue is earned; however, the company may receive, from time-to-time, cash distributions of carried interest before any revenue is earned. Such distributions are reflected as deferred carried interest liabilities within Accounts payable and accrued expenses on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Given the uniqueness of each fee arrangement, performance fee contracts are evaluated on an individual basis to determine the timing of revenue recognition.
Other revenues include fees derived primarily from transaction commissions earned upon the sale of new investments into certain of our funds and fees earned upon the completion of transactions in our real estate and private equity asset groups. These transaction fees are recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income on the date when Invesco’s services are complete, which typically coincides with when the transactions are legally complete.
Principal versus Agent
The company utilizes third-party service providers to fulfill certain performance obligations in its revenue agreements. Generally, the company is deemed to be the principal in these arrangements because the company controls the investment management and other related services before they are transferred to customers. Such control is evidenced by the company’s primary responsibility to customers and the ability to negotiate the third-party contract price as well as select and direct third-party service providers, or a combination of these factors. Therefore, investment management and service and distribution fee revenues and the related third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses are reported on a gross basis.
As discussed above, the revenues from the company’s U.S. retail operations include 12b-1 distribution fees, which are largely passed through to brokers who sell the funds. The fees passed through to the broker dealers are included in third-party distribution expenses along with additional marketing support distribution costs. Both the revenues and the costs are dependent on the underlying AUM of the brokers' clients. Third-party distribution expenses also include the amortization of upfront commissions paid to broker-dealers for sales of fund shares with a CDSC (a charge levied to the investor for client redemption of AUM within a certain contracted period of time). The upfront distribution commissions are amortized over the redemption period. Also included in third-party distribution, service and advisory expenses are sub-transfer agency fees that are paid to third parties for processing client common share purchases and redemptions, call center support and client reporting. These costs are reimbursed by the related funds and are included in service and distribution fees.
Common Share-Based Compensation
The company issues equity-settled common share-based awards to certain employees, which are measured at fair value at the date of grant. Fair value for the common share awards representing equity interests identical to those associated with common shares traded in the open market is determined using the market price at the date of grant. The fair value determined at the grant date is expensed, based on the company's estimate of common shares that will eventually vest, on a straight-line or accelerated basis over the vesting period.
Deferred Compensation
The company grants deferred cash awards to certain employees which are linked in value to investment products. During the vesting period, employees earn a return linked to the appreciation or depreciation of specified investments. The company recognizes as compensation expense the value of the liability to employees, including the appreciation or depreciation of the liability, over the award's vesting period in proportion to the vested amount of the award.
The company currently economically hedges the exposure to market movements on certain of these awards by either holding the underlying investment products on its balance sheet or through a TRS financial instrument. The company immediately recognizes the full value of the investment in Investments on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and any subsequent appreciation or depreciation of the investments, in Other gains/(losses), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Pensions
For defined contribution plans, contributions payable related to the accounting period are expensed and included in Employee compensation expense. For defined benefit plans, the cost of providing benefits is separately determined for each plan using the projected unit credit method, based on actuarial valuations performed at each balance sheet date. The company's annual measurement date is December 31st. A portion of actuarial gains and losses is expensed and included in Other gains/(losses), net if the net cumulative unrecognized actuarial gain or loss at the end of the prior period exceeds the greater of 10.0% of the present value of the defined benefit obligation (before deducting plan assets) at that date and 10.0% of the fair value of any plan assets.
Leases
The company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. Lease liabilities and right-of-use assets are recognized on the lease commencement date based on the net present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. The company includes options to extend or terminate a lease within the lease term when it is reasonably certain the option will be exercised. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Lease liabilities represent an obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, and right-of-use assets represent a right to use an underlying asset during the lease term. Right-of-use assets exclude capital improvement funding and other lease concessions provided by the landlord.
As the company's leases generally do not have a readily determinable implicit rate, the company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of fixed lease payments based on information available at the lease commencement date. Fixed lease expenses for operating leases are generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The company combines lease components and non-lease components such as fixed maintenance and other costs into a single lease component, which results in the capitalization of all fixed payments within lease liabilities and right-of-use assets. Variable lease payments, such as variable maintenance costs or payments based on an index rate or usage, are expensed as incurred and are excluded from lease liabilities and right-of-use assets.
Taxation
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for temporary differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and their respective tax bases, using the enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in the income tax provision in the period in which the change is enacted. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. The company recognizes all excess tax benefits and deficiencies related to common share-based awards as a discrete item in the income tax provision in the period in which the awards vest. The company records a liability for UTBs resulting from uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The company recognizes interest and penalties related to income tax matters in the income tax provision.
Earnings Per Common Share
Basic and diluted EPS are computed using the two-class method, which treats unvested restricted common shares as if they were a separate class of common shares. Under the two-class method, Net income attributable to Invesco is adjusted for the allocation of earnings to the unvested restricted common shares. In addition, the weighted-average common shares outstanding is adjusted for unvested restricted common shares.
Comprehensive Income
The company's Other comprehensive income/(loss) consists of foreign currency translation adjustments and employee benefit plan liability adjustments. Such amounts are recorded net of applicable taxes.
Translation of Foreign Currencies
Transactions in foreign currencies (currencies other than the functional currencies of the company's subsidiaries) are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At each balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are remeasured into the functional currencies of the company's subsidiaries at the rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. The revaluation of these transactions is included in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
The company's reporting currency and the functional currency of the Parent is U.S. Dollars. On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of the company's subsidiaries, whose functional currencies are currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising on the translation of the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are recorded directly to accumulated other comprehensive income in equity until the disposal of the net investment of the foreign entity, at which time, the exchange differences are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Income and expense items included in the Consolidated Statements of Income are translated at the weighted average rates for the year, which approximate actual exchange rates with the foreign exchange impact recorded to the Consolidated Statements of Income. Goodwill and other fair value adjustments arising on acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and are translated at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date.
2. FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
The fair value of financial instruments are presented in the below summary table. The fair value of financial instruments held by CIP are presented in Note 18, "Consolidated Investment Products."
| December 31, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (in millions) | Fair Value | Fair Value | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 986.5 | $ | 1,469.2 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Equity investments | 371.2 | 272.4 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Assets held for policyholders | — | 393.9 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Policyholder payables (1) | — | (393.9) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Total return swap related to deferred compensation plans | (9.4) | 4.9 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1)These financial instruments are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Policyholder payables are indexed to the value of the assets held for policyholders and changes in fair value are recorded and offset to zero in other operating revenues. In January 2024, all funds were distributed to customers.
A three-level valuation hierarchy exists for disclosure of fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
-
Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
-
Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
-
Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
An asset or liability's categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following table presents, for each of the hierarchy levels described above, the carrying value of the company's assets and liabilities, including by major security type for equity investments, which are measured at fair value on the company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively:

Total Return Swap
In addition to holding equity investments, the company has a TRS to hedge economically certain deferred compensation liabilities. The notional value of the TRS at December 31, 2024 was $421.2 million, and the fair value of the TRS was a liability of $9.4 million (December 31, 2023 notional value was $393.0 million and the fair value was an asset of $4.9 million). During the year ended December 31, 2024, market valuation gains related to the TRS were $23.8 million (December 31, 2023: $30.1 million net gains).
The fair value of the TRS was determined under the market approach using quoted prices of the underlying investments and, as such, is classified as level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. The TRS is not designated as a hedging instrument for accounting purposes.

(1)The base interest rate is the secured overnight financing rate (SOFR) plus a 0.10% adjustment (Adjusted SOFR).
(2)The company's senior note indentures contain certain restrictions on mergers or consolidations. Beyond these items, there are no other restrictive covenants in the indentures.
(3)On January 30, 2024, the outstanding balance of the $600.0 million senior notes was paid in full.
(4)The difference between the principal amounts and the carrying values of the senior notes in the table above reflect the unamortized debt issuance costs and discounts.
The fair market value of the company's senior notes was determined by market quotes provided by a third-party pricing service, which utilizes Level 2 valuation inputs. In the absence of an active market, the company relies upon the average price quoted by brokers for determining the fair market value of the debt.
At December 31, 2024, the outstanding balance on the revolving credit agreement was zero. Borrowings under the revolving credit agreement will bear interest at (i) Adjusted SOFR for specified interest periods or (ii) a floating base rate (based upon the highest of (a) the Bank of America prime rate, (b) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50% and (c) Adjusted SOFR for an interest period of one month plus 1.00%), plus, in either case, an applicable margin determined with reference to the higher of the available credit ratings of the Parent or its indirect subsidiary, Invesco Finance PLC. Based on credit ratings of the Parent as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the applicable margin for SOFR-based loans was 1.13% and for base rate loans was 0.13%. In addition, the company is required to pay the lenders a facility fee on the aggregate commitments of the lenders (whether or not used) at a rate per annum which is based on the higher of the available credit ratings of the Parent or its indirect subsidiary, Invesco Finance PLC. Based on credit ratings as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the annual facility fee was equal to 0.13% for both periods.
The revolving credit agreement contains customary restrictive covenants on the company and its subsidiaries. Restrictive covenants in the revolving credit agreement include, but are not limited to: prohibitions on creating, incurring or assuming any liens; entering into merger arrangements; selling, leasing, transferring or otherwise disposing of assets; making a material change in the nature of the business; making a significant accounting policy change in certain situations; entering into transactions with affiliates; and incurring indebtedness through the subsidiaries (other than the borrower, Invesco Finance PLC). Many of these restrictions are subject to certain minimum thresholds and exceptions. Financial covenants under the revolving credit agreement include: (i) the quarterly maintenance of a debt/Covenant Adjusted EBITDA leverage ratio, as defined in the revolving credit agreement, of not greater than 3.25:1.00, (ii) an interest coverage ratio (Covenant Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the revolving credit agreement/interest expense for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ended before the date of determination) of not less than 4.00:1.00. The company is in compliance with all restrictive debt covenants as of December 31, 2024.
The revolving credit agreement also contains customary provisions regarding events of default which could result in an acceleration or increase in amounts due, including (subject to certain materiality thresholds and grace periods) payment default, failure to comply with covenants, material inaccuracy of representation or warranty, bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, change of control, certain judgments, ERISA matters, cross-default to other debt agreements, governmental action prohibiting or restricting the company or its subsidiaries in a manner that has a material adverse effect, and failure of certain guaranty obligations.

11. COMMON SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
The company recognized total compensation expense of $104.6 million, $114.6 million and $106.2 million related to equity-settled common share-based compensation for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The income tax benefit recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income for common share-based compensation arrangements was $22.1 million for 2024 (2023: $17.4 million; 2022: $21.7 million).
Employee common share awards are broadly classified into two categories: time-vested and performance-vested. Time-vested awards vest ratably over a defined period of continued employee service. Performance-vested awards vest upon (i) the company's attainment of certain pre-established performance criteria, and (ii) a defined period of continued employee service.
Time-vested and performance-vested equity awards are granted in the form of restricted stock awards (RSAs) or restricted stock units (RSUs). With respect to the performance-vested awards granted in February 2022, 2023 and 2024, vesting is tied to the achievement of specific levels of adjusted operating margin and relative total shareholder return with vesting ranging from 0% to 150%.
Employee common share awards are measured at fair value based on Invesco's common stock price at the date of grant and are expensed on a straight-line or accelerated basis over the vesting period.
With respect to time-vested awards, dividends accrue directly to the employee holder of RSAs, and cash payments in lieu of dividends are made to employee holders of RSUs. With respect to performance-vested awards, cash payments in lieu of dividends are deferred and are paid at the same rate as on the underlying shares if and to the extent the award vests.
The 2016 Global Equity Incentive Plan, which was originally approved by the company's common shareholders in May 2016 and most recently amended and restated in July 2024, authorizes the issuance of up to 21.2 million shares. In May 2010, the board approved the 2010 Global Equity Incentive Plan ST (GEIP ST). The GEIP ST authorizes the issuance of up to 8.5 million shares. With respect to the GEIP ST, awards are only granted as employment inducement awards in connection with a strategic transaction and, as a result, do not require shareholder approval under the rules of the NYSE or otherwise.
Movements on employee common share awards during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 were detailed below:
| 2024 | 2023 | 2022 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The total fair value of common shares that vested during 2024 was $95.7 million (2023: $101.4 million; 2022: $141.8 million). The weighted average grant date fair value of the U.S. dollar share awards that were granted during 2024 was $15.20 (2023: $17.53; 2022: $21.23).
At December 31, 2024, there was $94.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested common share awards; that cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.30 years.
12. RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
Defined Contribution Plans
The company operates defined contribution retirement benefit plans for all qualifying employees. The assets of the plans are held separately from those of the company in funds under the control of trustees. When employees leave the plans prior to vesting fully in the contributions, the contributions payable by the company may be reduced by the amount of forfeited contributions.
The total amounts charged to the Consolidated Statements of Income for the year ended December 31, 2024 of $75.4 million (December 31, 2023: $73.9 million, December 31, 2022: $76.4 million) represent contributions paid or payable to these plans by the company at rates specified in the rules of the plans. As of December 31, 2024, accrued contributions of $13.0 million (December 31, 2023: $12.9 million) for the current year will be paid to the plans.
Defined Benefit Plans
The company maintains legacy defined benefit pension plans for qualifying employees of its subsidiaries in the U.K., Ireland, Germany and Taiwan. All defined benefit plans are closed to new participants.
The most recent actuarial valuations of plan assets and the present value of the defined benefit obligation were valued as of December 31, 2024. The benefit obligation, related current service cost and prior service cost were measured using the projected unit credit method.

Plan assets are not held in company stock. The investment policies and strategies for plan assets held by defined benefit plans include:
-
Funding - to have sufficient assets available to pay members benefits;
-
Security - to maintain the minimum Funding Requirement;
-
Stability - to have due regard to the employer's ability in meeting contribution payments given their size and incidence.
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for each major category of plan assets measured at fair value. Information about the valuation hierarchy levels used to measure fair value is detailed in Note 2, “Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities.”
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash equivalents include cash in the bank and cash investments in money market funds. Cash investments in money market funds are valued under the market approach through the use of quoted market prices in an active market, which is the NAV of the underlying funds, and are classified within level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.
Fund investments
These plan assets are primarily invested in affiliated funds and are classified within level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. They are valued at the NAV of common shares held by the plan at year end.
Equity securities, government debt securities and other investments
These plan assets are classified within level 1 of the valuation hierarchy and are valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded.
Guaranteed investment contracts
These plan assets are classified within level 3 of the valuation hierarchy and are valued through use of unobservable inputs by discounting the related cash flows based on current yields of similar instruments with comparable durations considering the credit-worthiness of the issuer.
Cash Flows
The estimated amounts of contributions expected to be paid to the plans during 2025 are $0.2 million. There are no future annual benefits of plan participants covered by insurance contracts issued by the employer or related parties.
The benefits expected to be paid in each of the next five fiscal years and in the five fiscal years thereafter are as follows:

13. OPERATING LEASES
The company leases office space in almost all its business locations and data centers and has certain equipment under non-cancelable operating leases. The operating leases have a weighted-average remaining lease term of 9.93 years for the year ended December 31, 2024 (2023: 9.95 years) and generally include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from 1 to 10 years. Certain lease arrangements include an option to terminate the lease if a notification is provided to the landlord within 1 to 4.2 years prior to the end of the lease term. The company has sole discretion in exercising lease renewal and termination options. The lease terms used in the company’s lease measurements do not include renewal options as they are not reasonably certain to be exercised as of the date of this report.
The company elected to combine lease and non-lease components in calculating the lease liability and right-of-use asset for operating leases.
Variable lease payments are determined based on the terms and conditions outlined in the lease contracts and are primarily determined in relation to the extent of the company’s usage of the right-of-use asset or the nature and extent of services received from the lessor. Variable lease costs consists primarily of common area maintenance and other operating expenses as negotiated with the lessor.
As of December 31, 2024, the right-of-use asset of $335.3 million was included in Other assets, and the lease liability of $454.9 million was included in Accounts payable and accrued expenses, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The components of lease expense for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

In determining the discount rate, the company considered the interest rate yield for specific interest rate environments and the company’s credit spread at the inception of the lease.
The weighted-average discount rate for the operating lease liability for the year ended December 31, 2024 was 4.42% (2023: 4.14%).

(1) Certain signs within the table in the year ended December 31, 2023 are the opposite compared to the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2022 as a result of applying each line’s total income tax benefit or expense to the loss before income taxes.
The company’s effective tax rate is affected by the tax rates in foreign jurisdictions, which are different than the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21%, and the relative amount of income earned in those jurisdictions. As a result, the effective tax rate will vary from year to year depending on the mix of the profits and losses from each jurisdiction.
The components of income/(loss) before taxes for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded net when related to the same tax jurisdiction. At December 31, 2024, the company recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets net deferred tax assets of $9.7 million in Other assets and net Deferred tax liabilities of $1,281.9 million. At December 31, 2023, the company recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets net deferred tax assets of $1.6 million in Other assets and net Deferred tax liabilities of $1,325.7 million.
At December 31, 2024, the company had state net operating loss carryforwards of $33.5 million, which will expire, if not utilized, between 2025 and 2038 except for approximately $4.1 million which have an indefinite life. At December 31, 2024, the company also had federal and foreign net operating loss carryforwards of $131.5 million, of which approximately $8.6 million will expire over several years starting in 2025, with the remaining $122.9 million having an indefinite life. A valuation allowance has been recorded against certain carryforwards and certain deferred tax assets related to tax jurisdictions in which it is unlikely that the deferred tax asset will be realized.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxes that would be payable on the unremitted earnings of the company's foreign subsidiaries and corporate joint ventures, except where it is our intention to indefinitely reinvest the undistributed earnings. A deferred tax liability has not been recognized for our Canadian unremitted earnings, which are indefinitely reinvested, of approximately $989.1 million and $1,068.8 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. If these earnings were distributed as a dividend, Canadian withholding tax of 5.0% would be due on the dividend. There are no other significant jurisdictions for which a deferred tax liability has not been recognized on unremitted earnings.
A reconciliation of the gross UTBs for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 is as follows:

| Balance at December 31 | $ | 99.3 | $ | 91.3 | $ | 100.2 |
The amount of UTBs that, if recognized, would favorably affect the company's effective tax rate was $78.9 million at December 31, 2024. The company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to UTBs as a component of the income tax provision. The Consolidated Balance Sheets include accrued interest and penalties related to UTBs of $21.6 million, $17.0 million and $15.1 million at December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The company recognized expense for interest and penalties related to UTBs of $4.5 million, $1.9 million and $1.4 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
The company files U.S. federal, U.S. state and local, and numerous foreign income tax returns. The company is periodically examined by various taxing authorities. With few exceptions, the company is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2014. As a result of the completion of taxing authorities' examinations and the expiration of statutes of limitations, it is reasonably possible that the company's gross UTBs may decrease by as much as $11.0 million within the next twelve months.

16. SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
The company has one operating segment, investment management.
The company’s CODM is the President and CEO as he assesses the company’s performance and makes decisions about resource allocation. Net income/(loss) is one of the performance measures used by the CODM to evaluate the segment's performance and allocate capital. When assessing performance, the CODM uses regularly provided GAAP and non-GAAP financial information and metrics to monitor actual results against forecasts, prior period results and peers’ results. The information regularly provided to the CODM on the segment's revenues and significant expenses aligns with the categories presented in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The segment's assets are reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as Total assets.
Geographical information is presented below. There are no revenues or long-lived assets attributed to the company's country of domicile, Bermuda.

17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments and contingencies may arise in the ordinary course of business.
The company has committed to co-invest in certain investment products which may be called in future periods. At December 31, 2024, the company’s undrawn co-invest capital commitments were $693.7 million (December 31, 2023: $623.3 million).
Certain of our managed investment products have entered into revolving credit facilities with financial institutions. The company provided equity commitments and guarantees to the financial institutions for certain of these revolving credit facilities that are temporary in nature. The revolving credit facilities look first to the respective investment products for repayment and servicing. The company’s equity commitment or guarantee would only be called in the event a particular investment product is unable to meet its obligation. The company believes the likelihood of being required to fund its equity commitments or guarantees under these arrangements to be remote. To date, the company has not been required to fund any equity commitments or guarantees under these arrangements. The maximum amount of future payments under the commitments is $219.5 million and under the guarantees is $65.0 million. The fair value of the guarantee liability is not significant to the consolidated financial statements.
The company and some of its subsidiaries have entered into agreements with financial institutions to guarantee certain obligations of other company subsidiaries. The company would be required to perform under these guarantees in the event of certain defaults. The company has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.
Legal Contingencies
The company is from time to time involved in pending or threatened litigation relating to claims arising in the ordinary course of its business. The nature and progression of litigation can make it difficult to predict the impact a particular lawsuit or claim will have on the company. There are many reasons that the company cannot make these assessments, including, among others, one or more of the following: the proceeding is in its early stages (or merely threatened); the damages sought are unspecified, unsupportable, unexplained or uncertain; the claimant is seeking relief other than compensatory damages; the matter presents novel legal claims or other meaningful legal uncertainties; discovery has not started or is not complete; there are significant facts in dispute; and there are other parties who may share in any ultimate liability.
The company and certain related entities have in recent years been subject to various regulatory inquiries, reviews and investigations and legal proceedings, including civil litigation, regulatory investigations and enforcement actions. These actions can arise from normal business operations and/or matters that have been the subject of previous regulatory reviews. As a global company with investment products registered in numerous countries and subject to the jurisdiction of one or more regulators in each country, at any given time, our business operations may be subject to review, investigation, or disciplinary action.
In assessing the impact that a legal or regulatory matter will have on the company, management evaluates the need for an accrual on a case-by-case basis. If the likelihood of a loss is deemed probable and is reasonably estimable, the estimated loss is accrued. If the likelihood of a loss is assessed as less than probable, a loss is not accrued. If a loss is deemed probable but an amount or range of loss cannot be reasonably estimated, a loss is not accrued but the matter is disclosed.
In management’s opinion, adequate accrual has been made as of December 31, 2024 to provide for any losses that may arise from matters for which the company could reasonably estimate an amount and are deemed probable. Management believes that the ultimate resolution of any litigation or regulatory investigations will not materially affect the company’s business, revenue, net income or liquidity.
Further, the investment management industry also is generally subject to extensive levels of ongoing regulatory oversight and examination. In the jurisdictions in which the company operates, governmental authorities regularly make inquiries, hold investigations and administer market conduct examinations with respect to the company’s compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Additional lawsuits or regulatory enforcement actions arising out of these inquiries may in the future be filed against the company, related entities and individuals in the jurisdictions in which the company and its affiliates operate. Any material loss of investor and/or client confidence as a result of such inquiries and/or litigation could result in a significant decline in AUM, which would have an adverse effect on the company’s future financial results and its ability to grow its business.
18. CONSOLIDATED INVESTMENT PRODUCTS
The company's risk with respect to each investment in CIP is limited to its equity ownership and any uncollected management and performance fees. The company has no right to the benefits from, nor does it bear the risks associated with, these investments, beyond the company's direct investments in, and management and performance fees generated from, the investment products. If the company were to liquidate, these investments would not be available to the general creditors of the company, and as a result, the company does not consider investments held by CIP to be company assets. Additionally, the collateral assets of consolidated CLOs are held solely to satisfy the obligations of the CLOs, and the investors in the consolidated CLOs have no recourse to the general credit of the company for the notes issued by the CLOs. CIP are taxed at the investor level and not at the product level; therefore, there is no tax provision reflected in the net impact of CIP. Substantially all of CIP are VIEs. The following table presents the balances related to CIP that are included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as well as Invesco's net investment in and net receivables from CIP for each period presented.

(1) Bank loan investments, which comprise the majority of the consolidated CLOs' portfolio collateral, are senior secured corporate loans from a variety of industries. Bank loan investments mature at various dates between 2025 and 2032, pay interest at the applicable reference rate plus a spread of up to 10.95%, and typically range in S&P credit rating categories from BBB down to unrated. Notes issued by the consolidated CLOs mature at various dates between 2028 and 2038 and have a weighted average maturity of eight years. The notes are issued in various tranches with different risk profiles. The interest rates are generally variable rates based on the applicable reference rate plus a pre-defined spread, which varies from 0.40% for the more senior tranches to 8.68% for the more subordinated tranches. The investors of the notes are not affiliated with the company and have no recourse to the general credit of the company. The company elected the fair value option for collateral assets held and notes issued by its consolidated CLOs, see Note 1 "Accounting Policies," for details. At December 31, 2024, the unpaid principal balance exceeds the fair value of the senior secured bank loans and bonds by approximately $303.9 million (December 31, 2023: the unpaid principal balance exceeded the fair value of the senior secured bank loans and bonds by approximately $340.9 million). Approximately 0.37% of the collateral assets are in default as of December 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023: approximately 0.07% of the collateral assets were in default).
(2) The table below summarizes as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the nature of investments that are valued using the NAV as a practical expedient. Private equity funds are not subject to redemption; however, for certain funds, investors may sell or transfer their interest. Real estate funds are generally subject to a redemption notice period that requires at least 45 days, and the frequency of redemptions is either quarterly or best efforts.
