SPECIAL CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Report, other public filings and oral and written statements by us and our management, may include statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States (U.S.) securities laws. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of our management and on information available to us at the time such statements are made. Forward-looking statements include information concerning future results of our operations, expenses, earnings, liquidity, cash flows, capital expenditures, and assets under management (AUM) that could differ materially from actual results due to known and unknown risks and other important factors, including, but not limited to, industry or market conditions, geopolitical events including wars, global trade tensions, tariffs, natural disasters, and pandemics or health crises and their respective potential impact on the company, acquisitions and divestitures, debt and our ability to obtain additional financing or make payments, regulatory developments, demand for and pricing of our products, the prospects for certain legal contingencies, and other aspects of our business or general economic conditions. In addition, when used in this Report or such other documents or statements, words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “projects,” “forecasts,” and future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “may,” “could,” “should,” and “would,” and any other statement that necessarily depends on future events, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. None of this information should be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, historical financial statements.
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from our expectations. In most cases, such assumptions will not be expressly stated. We caution investors not to rely unduly on any forward-looking statements.
The following important factors, and other factors described elsewhere in this Report or contained in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), among others, could cause our results to differ materially from any results described in any forward-looking statements:
-
significant fluctuations in the performance of capital and credit markets worldwide;
-
adverse changes in the global economy;
-
the performance of our investment products;
-
significant changes in net asset flows into or out of the accounts we manage or declines in market value of the assets in, or redemptions or other withdrawals from, those accounts;
-
competitive pressures in the investment management business, including consolidation, which may force us to reduce fees we charge;
-
failure to properly address the increased transformative pressures affecting the asset management industry;
-
any inability to adjust our expenses quickly enough to match significant deterioration in markets;
-
the effect of fluctuations in interest rates, liquidity and credit markets in the U.S. or globally;
-
failure to maintain adequate corporate and contingent liquidity;
-
exposure through certain investment products to credit losses in excess of our expectations and risks related to early stage real estate-related companies;
-
our ability to acquire and integrate other companies into our operations successfully and the extent to which we can realize anticipated product sales, cost savings or synergies from such acquisitions;
-
the occurrence of breaches and errors in the conduct of our business, including errors in our quantitative models and index tracking investment solutions, any failure to properly safeguard confidential and sensitive information, cyber-attacks or acts of fraud;
-
our ability to attract and retain key personnel, including investment management professionals;
-
limitations or restrictions on access to distribution channels for our products;
-
our ability to develop, introduce and support new investment products and services;
-
our ability to comply with client contractual requirements and/or investment guidelines despite preventative compliance procedures and controls;
-
variations in demand for our investment products or services, including termination or non-renewal of our investment management agreements;
-
harm to our reputation;
-
our ability to maintain our credit ratings and access the capital markets in a timely manner;
-
our debt and the limitations imposed by our Revolving Credit Agreement;
-
exchange rate fluctuations, especially against the U.S. Dollar;
-
man-made or natural disasters, pandemics or other widespread health crises or other business continuity problems and governmental responses to the same;
-
the effect of political, economic or social instability in or involving countries in which we invest or do business (including the effect of terrorist attacks, war and other hostilities);
-
the effect of failures or delays in support systems or customer service functions, and other interruptions of our operations;
-
the effect of systems and other technological limitations on our ability to manage and grow our business;
-
the effect of non-performance by our counterparties, third-party service providers and other key vendors to fulfill their obligations;
-
impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets;
-
adverse results in litigation and any other regulatory or other proceedings, governmental investigations and enforcement actions;
-
the selling of our common stock by our significant shareholders;
-
failure to meet disclosure requirements and expectations related to sustainability or ESG, and
-
enactment of adverse federal, state or foreign legislation or changes in government policy or regulation (including accounting standards) affecting our operations, our capital requirements or the way in which our profits are taxed.
Other factors and assumptions not identified above were also involved in the derivation of these forward-looking statements, and the failure of such other assumptions to be realized may also cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. For more discussion of the risks affecting us, please refer to Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”
You should consider the areas of risk described above in connection with any forward-looking statements that may be made by us and our businesses generally. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update any of the information in this or any other public report if any forward-looking statement later turns out to be inaccurate, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. For all forward-looking statements, we claim the “safe harbor” provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Summary of Risk Factors
The following is a summary of material risks we are exposed to in the course of our business activities that could have an adverse effect on our business. It does not contain all of the information that may be important to you and should be read together with the more detailed discussion of risks in Item 1A, Risk Factors.
Risks Related to Market Dynamics and Volatility
-
Volatility and disruption in global or regional capital and credit markets, equity, debt, private and commodity markets, as well as adverse changes in the global economy, could negatively affect our AUM, revenues, net income and liquidity.
-
Our revenues and net income would likely be adversely affected by any reduction in AUM as a result of either a decline in market value of such assets or net outflows, each of which would reduce the investment management fees we earn.
-
Our revenues and net income from money market and other fixed income assets may be harmed by interest rate volatility, prolonged high or low rates, liquidity, and credit volatility.
-
Our financial condition and liquidity would be adversely affected by losses on our seed capital and co-investments.
-
As many of our subsidiary operations are located outside of the U.S. and have functional currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, changes in the exchange rates to the U.S. Dollar impact our reported financial results.
Risks Related to Investment Performance and Competition
-
Poor investment performance of our products could reduce the level of our AUM or affect our sales, and negatively impact our revenues and net income.
-
Failure to properly address the increased transformative pressures affecting the asset management industry could negatively impact our business.
-
Competitive pressures may force us to reduce the fees we charge to clients, which could reduce our profitability.
-
Our private market products include investments in private credit, real estate, private market funds of funds and direct equity investments in operating companies that may expose our investment products, our clients and, to the extent of our investment in such investment products, us to risks and liabilities and reputational harm.
-
Our investment products, clients and, to the extent of our investment in such investment products, we could incur losses if the allowance for credit losses, including loan and lending-related commitment reserves, of portfolio-level investments is inadequate or if our expectations of future economic conditions deteriorate.
-
We may be unable to develop new products and services, and the development of new products and services may expose us to additional costs or operational risk.
-
The failure or negative performance of products offered by competitors may have a negative impact on similar Invesco products irrespective of our performance.
Risks Related to Human Capital, Operations and Technology
-
Our investment management professionals and other key employees are a vital part of our ability to attract and retain clients, and the loss of key individuals or a significant portion of those professionals could result in a reduction of our AUM, revenues and net income.
-
Changes in the distribution channels on which we depend could reduce our net income and hinder our growth.
-
Failure to comply with client contractual requirements and/or investment guidelines could result in costs of correction, damage awards and/or regulatory fines and penalties against us and loss of revenues due to client terminations.
-
Our investment advisory agreements are subject to termination or non-renewal, and our fund and other investors may withdraw their assets at any time.
-
The quantitative models we use and our index tracking investment solutions may contain errors, which could result in financial losses or adversely impact product performance and client relationships.
-
Disclosure requirements and expectations related to sustainability or ESG are evolving. Our inability to meet these requirements and expectations could cause regulatory or reputational harm and affect our ability to attract and retain clients.
-
If our reputation is harmed, we could suffer losses in our AUM, revenues and net income.
-
The lack of soundness of other financial institutions could adversely affect us or the client portfolios we manage.
-
We depend on information technology, and any failures of or damage to, attack on or unauthorized access to our information technology systems or facilities, or those of third parties with which we do business or that facilitate our business activities, including as a result of cyber-attacks, could result in significant limits on our ability to conduct our operations and activities, costs and reputational damage.
-
Our ability to manage and grow our business successfully can be impeded by systems and other technological limitations.
-
If we are unable to successfully recover from a man-made or natural disaster, severe weather event, health crisis or pandemic or other business continuity problem, we could suffer material financial loss, loss of human capital, regulatory actions, reputational harm or legal liability.
-
Our business is vulnerable to deficiencies and failures in support systems, including data management, and customer service functions that could lead to breaches and errors or reputational harm, resulting in loss of customers or claims against us or our subsidiaries.
-
Disruptions in the markets, to market participants and to the operations of third parties whose functions are integral to our ETF platforms may adversely affect the prices at which ETFs trade, particularly during periods of market volatility.
-
The recent advancements in and increased use of artificial intelligence (AI) present risks and challenges that may adversely impact our business.
Risks Related to Accounting, Capital Management and Liquidity
-
The carrying value of goodwill and other intangible assets on our balance sheet has become impaired in the past and could become impaired in the future, which would adversely affect our results of operations.
-
Our Credit Agreements impose operating covenants that impact our ability to conduct certain activities and, if amounts borrowed under our Credit Agreements were subject to accelerated repayment, we might not have sufficient assets or liquidity to repay such amounts in full.
-
We issued perpetual preferred stock having a value of approximately $4 billion, of which approximately $2.5 billion remains outstanding, which could adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital and may limit our ability to fund other priorities.
-
Failure to maintain adequate corporate and contingent liquidity may cause our AUM, revenues and net income to decline, as well as harm our prospects for growth.
-
Distribution of earnings of our subsidiaries may be subject to limitations, including regulatory net capital requirements.
Risks Related to Strategic Transactions
- We may engage in strategic transactions that could create risks.
Risks Related to our Significant Shareholders
-
Future sales of shares of our common stock could adversely impact the trading price of our common stock.
-
Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company (MassMutual) has the ability to significantly influence our business, and MassMutual’s interest in our business may be different from that of other shareholders.
Risks Related to Regulatory and Legal Matters
-
We operate in an industry that is highly regulated in most countries, and any enforcement action or proceeding against us or significant changes in the laws or regulations governing our business or industry could damage our reputation or decrease our AUM, revenues, net income or liquidity.
-
Civil litigation and governmental investigations and enforcement actions or proceedings against us could adversely affect our AUM and future net income and increase our costs of doing business.
-
Legislative and other measures that may be taken by governmental authorities could materially increase our tax burden or otherwise adversely affect our net income or liquidity.
-
Examinations and audits by tax authorities could result in additional tax payments for prior periods.
-
Bermuda law differs from the laws in effect in the U.S. and may afford less protection to shareholders.
-
Because we are incorporated in Bermuda, it may be difficult for shareholders to enforce non-monetary judgments against us or any judgment against us or our directors and officers. Shareholders may have to seek independent advice regarding the commencement of proceedings or service of foreign process in Bermuda.
-
We have anti-takeover provisions in our Bye-Laws that may discourage a change of control.
General Risk Factors
-
Our ability to maintain our credit ratings and to access the capital markets in a timely manner should we seek to do so depends on a number of factors.
-
Insurance may not be available at a reasonable cost to protect us from loss or liability.
PART I
Item 1. Business
Introduction
Invesco Ltd. (the Parent), along with its consolidated entities (collectively, Invesco or the company), is an independent investment management firm dedicated to delivering a superior investment experience. Our comprehensive range of active, passive and alternative investment capabilities has been constructed over many years to help clients achieve their investment objectives. We draw on this comprehensive range of capabilities to provide solutions designed to deliver key outcomes aligned to client needs.
With approximately 7,500 employees and an on-the-ground presence in more than 20 countries, Invesco is well positioned to meet the needs of investors across the globe. We have specialized investment teams managing investments across a broad range of asset classes, investment styles and geographies. For decades, individuals and institutions have viewed Invesco as a trusted partner for a comprehensive set of investment needs. We have a significant presence in the retail and institutional markets within the investment management industry in the Americas, Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and Asia-Pacific (APAC), serving clients in more than 120 countries. As of December 31, 2025, the firm managed approximately $2.2 trillion in assets for investors around the world.
The key drivers of success for Invesco are strong long-term investment performance, positive market performance, high-quality client service, effective distribution relationships delivered across a diverse spectrum of investment management capabilities, distribution channels, geographic areas and market exposures, and competitive pricing. Through our focus on these areas, we seek to deliver better outcomes for clients, generate competitive investment results and positive net flows, and increase AUM and revenues.
We measure relative investment performance by comparing our investment capabilities to competitors' products, industry benchmarks and client investment objectives. Generally, distributors, investment advisors and consultants take into consideration longer-term investment performance (e.g., three-year and five-year performance) in their selection of investment products and recommendations to their clients. Third-party ratings may also influence client investment decisions. We monitor the quality of client service in a variety of ways, including periodic client satisfaction surveys, analysis of response times and redemption rates, competitive benchmarking of services and feedback from investment consultants.
The company is organized under the laws of Bermuda. Our common shares are listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the symbol “IVZ.” We maintain a website at www.invesco.com/corporate. (Information contained on our website shall not be deemed to be part of, or be incorporated into, this document.)
Industry Trends
Trends around the world continue to transform the investment management industry and underscore the need to be well diversified with broad capabilities globally:
Individuals and Institutions expect personalized outcomes and experience
-
Distribution partners are becoming more selective and continuing to maintain fewer relationships and partners, reducing the number of trusted investment managers with whom they work.
-
Clients and distribution partners are demanding more from investment managers. While performance remains paramount and competitive pricing is essential, best-in class experience and value-added services (including portfolio analytics, consultative solutions, and digital tools) increasingly differentiate managers.
Structural shifts in client portfolio allocations
-
Private market allocations continue to increase and become a more meaningful part of retail portfolios, driving industry fee growth as well as innovation and democratization.
-
Beta, factor, and index offerings will continue to be core to portfolios in transparent, efficient markets. In this space, clients will demand ease of access and competitive pricing.
-
Investors have been shifting their investment strategies toward passively managed strategies, and we believe this trend will continue.
-
Investors who are selecting active strategies place a high bar on proven and consistent performance across various wrappers.
Leading asset managers must quickly curate options that solve clients’ problems
-
Investment capabilities will be delivered efficiently and seamlessly using vehicles and technologies including models, SMAs, and tokenized platforms.
-
Investment managers are finding new ways of leveraging data and analytics to create insights that will provide strategic advantage and drive investment, distribution, and operational excellence.
-
Winners will invest in talent and skills across new ecosystems, requiring new ways of working and strategic partnerships to drive synergies and scale.
These dynamics are driving fundamental changes within the industry and, we believe, will drive increasing consolidation. Additionally, the U.S. and China will continue to be the dominant global wealth markets, and global asset management leaders will need a considerable footprint in these markets, along with additional high opportunity markets in EMEA and across the globe. We believe the depth and breadth of Invesco's platform position us to understand, anticipate, and meet our clients' needs and to compete successfully with others within our industry.
Strategy
At Invesco, we seek to drive sustainable profitable growth by delivering capabilities that build enduring relationships and create better outcomes for our clients. We believe we have an advantageous position globally as a diversified, client-centric asset manager and a strategy to deliver for our shareholders. The firm's strategic priorities are aligned with four key long-term themes that are designed to sharpen our focus on clients' needs, further strengthen our business over time and help ensure our long-term success:

-
Prioritize the intersection of market size, secular change, and Invesco’s unique position to drive growth in the highest opportunity regions.
-

-

Investment Management Capabilities
We believe that the proven strength of our distinct and globally located investment teams and their well-defined investment disciplines and risk management approaches provide us with a competitive advantage. There are few independent investment managers with teams as globally diverse as Invesco's and with the same breadth and depth of investment capabilities and vehicles. We offer multiple investment objectives within the various asset classes and products that we manage. Our asset classes, broadly defined, include equity, fixed income, balanced, alternatives and money market.
Distribution Channels
Retail AUM typically originate from clients investing into funds available to the public in the form of shares or units. Institutional AUM originate from entities such as individual corporate clients, insurance companies, endowments, foundations, government authorities, universities or charities. AUM disclosed as retail AUM include AUM distributed by the company's retail sales teams. AUM disclosed as institutional AUM include AUM distributed by the company's institutional sales teams.
The company operates as an integrated global investment manager. Dedicated sales forces deliver our investment strategies through a variety of vehicles that meet the needs of retail and institutional clients.
Retail
Retail AUM were $1,515.7 billion at December 31, 2025. We offer retail products within all of the major asset classes. Our retail products are primarily distributed through third-party financial intermediaries, including major wirehouses, direct wealth platforms, regional broker-dealers, insurance companies, banks and financial planners in the Americas, and independent brokers and financial advisors, banks and direct wealth platforms in EMEA and APAC. In addition to our established retail intermediary networks, digital distribution channels are playing an increasingly important role in shaping client engagement and product delivery. Digitally native financial institutions and online wealth platforms are becoming a growing source of retail asset flows, expanding investor access to our strategies through mobile‑first and data‑driven advisory ecosystems. Further, we also continue to explore opportunities in the emerging trend of tokenization, which has the potential to transform the delivery and operational efficiency of investment products through enhanced accessibility, fractionalization, and streamlined settlement.
The Americas and EMEA retail operations rank among the largest by AUM in their respective markets. As of December 31, 2025, Invesco's U.S. retail business, including our ETFs franchise, is among the leading asset managers in the U.S., and Invesco's retail business in EMEA is among the largest non-proprietary investment managers in the retail channel. In addition, Invesco Great Wall Fund Management Company Limited (IGW or Invesco Great Wall), our joint venture in China, is one of the largest asset managers in China, with total AUM of approximately $132.5 billion at December 31, 2025. We provide our retail clients with one of the industry's most robust and comprehensive product lines.
Institutional
Institutional AUM were $654.2 billion at December 31, 2025. We offer a broad suite of domestic and global capabilities, ranging from traditional active, passive and quantitative equities, and fixed income (including money market funds for institutional clients) to multi-asset solutions to alternative investments such as real estate, private credit, and absolute return strategies. Regional sales forces distribute our products and provide services to clients and intermediaries around the world. We have a diversified client base that includes major public and private entities, unions, non-profit organizations, endowments, foundations, pension funds, financial institutions, insurers and sovereign wealth funds. Invesco's institutional money market funds serve some of the largest financial institutions, government entities and companies in the world.
AUM Diversification
We believe one of Invesco's competitive strengths is the diversification of AUM by client domicile, distribution channel and investment capability. We serve clients in more than 120 countries. The following tables present a breakdown of AUM by client domicile, distribution channel and investment capability as of December 31, 2025. See the company's disclosures regarding the changes in AUM for the year ended December 31, 2025 in Part II, Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Assets Under Management” for additional information regarding changes in AUM.

Corporate Responsibility and Human Capital
Invesco’s long-term success depends on our ability to retain, develop, engage and attract top talent. Invesco invests significantly in talent development, employee benefit programs, technology and other resources that support our employees in developing their full potential. We believe that an employee community that is diverse and inclusive, engaged in their communities and invested in employee well-being will drive positive outcomes for our clients and shareholders.
As of December 31, 2025, the company had 7,499 (December 31, 2024: 8,508) employees with an on-the-ground presence in over 20 countries. Our employees are not covered under collective bargaining agreements.
The company operates in an environmentally responsible manner. Across Invesco offices, we carefully manage our operational activities with a focus on using natural resources wisely, increasing efficiencies wherever possible and providing a safe and healthy workplace for employees and visitors. This is the foundation of our environmental, health and safety management approach.
Competition
The investment management business is highly competitive, with points of differentiation including investment performance, fees, range of products offered, brand recognition, business reputation, financial strength, depth and continuity of relationships and quality of service. We compete with a large number of investment management firms, commercial banks, investment banks, broker-dealers, hedge funds, insurance companies and, increasingly, firms outside the traditional financial services industry, such as technology providers. Many of these competitors have greater financial resources and higher brand recognition than Invesco. However, we believe our experience as a trusted partner to clients, the quality and diversity of our investment capabilities, product types and channels of distribution, and our commitment to innovation enable us to compete effectively in the global investment management business. There are few independent investment managers with teams as globally diverse as Invesco's and the same breadth and depth of investment capabilities and vehicles. We offer multiple investment objectives within the various asset classes and products that we manage. We also believe being an independent investment manager is a competitive advantage, as our business model avoids conflicts that are inherent within institutions that both manage and distribute and/or service those products. Lastly, we believe continued execution against our strategic objectives will further strengthen our long-term competitive position.
Management Contracts
We derive substantially all of our revenues from investment management contracts. Fees vary with the type of assets being managed, with higher fees earned on actively managed equity and balanced accounts, along with real estate and other alternative asset products, and with lower fees earned on fixed income, money market, stable value accounts, and ETFs. Investment management contracts are generally terminable upon thirty or fewer days' notice. Typically, retail investors may withdraw their funds at any time without prior notice and institutional clients may elect to terminate their relationship with investment managers or reduce the aggregate amount of AUM with very short notice periods.
Risk Management
Invesco is committed to continually strengthening and evolving our risk management approach and activities to ensure they keep pace with business change and client expectations. We believe a key factor in our ability to manage through challenging market conditions and significant business change is our integrated and global approach to risk management. We seek to embed risk management in our day-to-day decision-making as well as our strategic planning process, while our global risk management framework seeks to enable consistent and meaningful risk dialogue up, down and across the company.
Our framework leverages two governance structures: (i) our Global Investment Risk and Performance Committee oversees the management of core investment risks; and (ii) our Enterprise Risk Management Committee oversees the management of all other business- and strategy-related risks. A network of regional, business unit and risk-specific management committees, with oversight by the Enterprise Risk Management Committee, provides ongoing identification, assessment, management, monitoring, and reporting of existing and emerging risks across all domains of our business. The Board has oversight responsibility for the company’s risk management program and processes.
Available Information
The SEC maintains a website that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding issuers at www.sec.gov. We make available free of charge on our website, www.invesco.com/corporate, our Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, proxy statement and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the SEC.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Risks Related to Market Dynamics and Volatility
Volatility and disruption in global or regional capital and credit markets, equity, debt, private and commodity markets, as well as adverse changes in the global economy, could negatively affect our AUM, revenues, net income and liquidity.
In recent years, capital and credit markets have experienced substantial volatility. In this regard:
-
In the event of extreme circumstances, including an economic, political or business crisis, such as widespread systemic failures or disruptions in the global or regional financial systems or failures of firms that have significant obligations as counterparties on financial instruments, we may suffer significant declines in AUM and severe liquidity or valuation issues in managed investment products in which client and company assets are invested, all of which would adversely affect our operating results, financial condition, liquidity, credit ratings, ability to access capital markets and ability to retain and attract key employees. Additionally, these factors could impact our ability to realize the carrying value of our goodwill and other intangible assets and have impacted the carrying value of our intangible assets in the past.
-
Illiquidity and/or volatility of the global or regional risk asset markets could negatively affect our ability to manage investment products in which client and company assets are invested or client inflows and outflows or to timely meet client redemption requests.
-
In the event that market values of companies involved directly in AI or exposed to AI trends, including those that are part of the Nasdaq-100 Index, decline, we may suffer declines in AUM and revenue, particularly relating to products we advise that track the Nasdaq-100 Index, such as the Invesco QQQ Trust and the Invesco NASDAQ 100 ETF.
-
Uncertainties regarding geopolitical developments, such as nation state sovereignty, border disputes, diplomatic developments, social instability or changes in governmental policies, can produce volatility in global financial markets and regulatory environments. This volatility, including volatility arising from tensions between the U.S. and China, may impact the level and composition of our AUM and also negatively impact investor sentiment, which could result in reduced or negative flows. Geopolitical risks may also lead to economic sanctions, trade restrictions, or regulatory changes that adversely affect global markets and our business.
-
Changes to tax, tariff and import/export regulations and economic sanctions may have a negative effect on global or regional economic conditions, financial markets and our business. Any changes with respect to trade policies, treaties, taxes, government regulations and tariffs, or the perception that any of these changes could occur, may have a material adverse effect on global or regional economic conditions and the stability of global financial markets and may significantly reduce global trade or trade between certain nations. Given we are a global business, we could be more adversely affected than others by such market uncertainties.
Our revenues and net income would likely be adversely affected by any reduction in AUM as a result of either a decline in market value of such assets or net outflows, each of which would reduce the investment management fees we earn.
We derive substantially all our revenues from investment management contracts with clients. Under these contracts, the investment management fees paid to us are generally based on the market value of AUM. AUM may decline for various reasons. For any period in which revenues decline, our net income and operating margin would likely decline by a greater proportion because a majority of our expenses remain fixed. Factors that could decrease AUM, revenues, and net income include the following:
Declines in the market value of AUM in client portfolios. We cannot predict whether volatility in the markets will result in substantial or sustained declines in the markets generally or result in price declines in market segments in which our AUM are concentrated. Any of the foregoing could negatively impact the market value of our AUM, revenues and net income. Market declines may be driven by interest rate volatility, foreign exchange fluctuations, geopolitical instability, or other macroeconomic factors.
Redemptions and other withdrawals from, or shifting among, client portfolios. These changes could be caused by investors reducing their investments in client portfolios in general or in the market segments in which we focus; investors taking profits from their investments; and portfolio risk characteristics, which could cause investors to move assets to other investment managers. Furthermore, the fees we earn vary with the types of assets being managed, with higher fees earned on actively managed equity and balanced accounts, alternative asset products, and lower fees earned on fixed income, stable value accounts and passively managed products. Our revenues and net income may decline further if clients continue to shift their investments to lower fee accounts.
Our revenues and net income from money market and other fixed income assets may be harmed by interest rate volatility, prolonged high or low rates, liquidity, and credit volatility.
While inflation remained relatively flat in 2025, our business is exposed to risks associated with inflation and fluctuations in interest rates including rapid changes or uncertainty in rate direction. Certain institutional investors using money market products and other short-term duration fixed income products for cash management purposes may shift these investments to direct investments in comparable instruments in order to realize higher yields. These redemptions would reduce AUM, thereby reducing our revenues and net income. If securities within a money market portfolio default or investor redemptions force the portfolio to realize losses, there could be negative pressure on its net asset value (NAV). Although money market investments are not guaranteed instruments, the company might decide, under such a scenario, that it is in its best interest to provide support in the form of a support agreement, capital infusion or other methods to help stabilize a declining NAV, which may have an adverse impact on our profitability. Additionally, we have investments, including collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), real estate-related loans, commercial loans, income based products inclusive of private strategies, and seed capital in fixed income funds, the valuation of which could vary with changes in interest and default rates as well as credit quality deterioration. Declines in the values of AUM could lead to reduced revenues and net income as management fees are generally calculated based upon the size of AUM.
Our financial condition and liquidity would be adversely affected by losses on our seed capital and co-investments**.**
The company has investments in managed investment products that invest in a variety of asset classes, including equities, fixed income products, commodities, derivatives, other similar financial instruments, and alternative investment products. Investments in these products are generally made to establish a track record, meet purchase size requirements for trading blocks or demonstrate economic alignment with other investors in our funds. Adverse market conditions may result in the need to write down the value of these seed capital and co-investments, which may adversely affect our results of operations or liquidity. As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately $1,166.3 million in seed capital and co-investments.
As many of our subsidiary operations are located outside of the U.S. and have functional currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, changes in the exchange rates to the U.S. Dollar impact our reported financial results.

Item 1C. Cybersecurity
Cyber threats are considered one of the most significant risks facing financial institutions. To mitigate that risk, we have a designated Global Chief Security Officer (GCSO) who leads our Global Security Department, which is responsible for identifying, assessing, and managing cybersecurity threats. Our GCSO has experience in the public and private sectors, specializing in security, investigations, and incident response. The Global Security Department oversees, among others, the following groups across Invesco: Information Security, Strategic Intelligence, Corporate Security, Enterprise Resilience, Business Continuity, Crisis Management, Global Privacy Office, Business Security, and Projects & Strategy. This structure supports a more comprehensive, holistic approach to keeping our clients, employees, and critical assets safe, upholding privacy rights, and enabling a secure and resilient business.
The information security program for the company is led by our Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) who reports directly to the GCSO and has extensive experience in information security and risk management. Our information security program is designed to oversee all aspects of information security risk and seeks to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information assets, including the implementation of controls aligned with industry guidelines and applicable statutes and regulations to identify threats, detect attacks and protect our information assets.
Our cybersecurity programs include the following:
-
Proactive assessments of technical infrastructure and security resilience are performed on a regular basis, which include penetration testing, offensive testing and maturity assessments.
-
Conducting due diligence on third-party service providers regarding cybersecurity risks prior to on-boarding, periodic assessment of cybersecurity risks for existing third-party service providers and continuous monitoring for new third-party cybersecurity incidents.
-
An incident response program that includes periodic testing and is designed to restore business operations as quickly and as orderly as possible in the event of a cybersecurity incident at Invesco or a third-party.
-
Mandatory annual employee security awareness training, which focuses on cyber threats and security in general.
-
Regular cyber phishing tests throughout the year to measure and raise employee awareness of cyber phishing threats.
Important to these programs is our investment in threat intelligence, our active engagement in industry and government security-related forums, and our utilization of external experts to challenge our program maturity, assess our controls and routinely test our capabilities.
The company's Board oversees cybersecurity risk and receives updates, at a minimum, twice a year regarding cybersecurity, including risks and protections. The Global Operational Risk Management Committee, one of the company's risk management committees, provides executive-level oversight and monitoring of the end-to-end programs dedicated to managing information security and cyber related risk. The members of this Committee include the Chief Information and Operations Officer, Chief Risk and Audit Officer, General Counsel, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Human Resources Officer, Global Head of Compliance, as well as other Global Operational Risk Owners which includes the GCSO. The Committee reports to the Enterprise Risk Management Committee, which provides updates to the Board to facilitate its oversight.
As of December 31, 2025, we have not experienced any cyber incidents that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect Invesco’s business strategy, results of operations or financial condition.

We continued to make progress on strengthening our capital management, simplifying and focusing our organization, investing in our key capabilities, and accelerating growth to position the company for greater scale, performance and improved profitability.
We are delivering on our commitment to deleverage and maintain a strong balance sheet. We repaid in full the $500.0 million three-year Term Loan Agreement entered into in the second quarter of 2025 and ended the year with cash and cash equivalents of $1.0 billion. Additionally, on January 15, 2026, we redeemed the $500.0 million of senior notes that matured on January 15, 2026. We believe the progress we have made to build financial flexibility has Invesco well-positioned to navigate various market conditions and deliver long-term growth. We remain committed to returning capital to shareholders longer term through a combination of share repurchases and modestly increasing dividends. During the year, the company repurchased 5.4 million common shares for $100.4 million in the open market, and we expect to continue common share repurchases on a regular basis going forward. Additionally, we repurchased $1.5 billion of Invesco’s outstanding Series A Preferred Stock during the year. We also amended and restated the $2.0 billion floating rate Revolving Credit Agreement, increasing the borrowing capacity to $2.5 billion and extending the expiration date to May 16, 2030.
In addition to our previously announced broader strategic product and distribution partnership with Barings (MassMutual's global asset management subsidiary), we also announced a new strategic partnership with LGT Capital Partners during the fourth quarter. These partnerships aim to develop a suite of multi-alternative private markets solutions focused on the U.S. wealth and retirement channels.
On December 20, 2025, Invesco QQQ Trust converted from a unit investment trust (UIT) to an open-end fund ETF. The modernized QQQ ETF provides investors with a more beneficial way to access the companies of the Nasdaq-100 Index, including a reduced expense ratio and enhanced operational flexibility. This change also deepens the company's ability to generate new revenues and drive profitability.
During the fourth quarter, we completed the sale of the intelliflo business as part of our efforts to sharpen our strategic focus. We also completed the sale of 60% of our interest in Invesco Asset Management (India) Private Limited to IndusInd
International Holdings Limited to enhance the revenue generation of the business by combining our asset management expertise with their domestic distribution network.
On January 13, 2026, we announced that we entered into an agreement to sell our Canadian fund management agreements to CI Global Asset Management and form a long-term strategic partnership under which we will continue to provide portfolio management services through a sub-advisory arrangement to approximately 66 of the 104 Canadian mutual funds and ETFs with approximately $9 billion of AUM.
Presentation of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Impact of Consolidated Investment Products (CIP)
The company provides investment management services to, and has transactions with, investment products sponsored by the company in the normal course of business. The company's investment adviser subsidiaries serve as investment managers to these products, making day-to-day investment decisions concerning the assets of the products. The company is required to consolidate certain of these managed funds from time-to-time, as discussed more fully in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 1, "Accounting Policies -- Basis of Accounting and Consolidation." Investment products that are consolidated are referred to in this Report as CIP. The company's economic risk with respect to each investment in CIP is limited to its equity ownership, unfunded equity commitments and any uncollected management and performance fees.
The majority of the company's CIP balances are CLO-related. The collateral assets of the CLOs are held solely to satisfy the obligations of the CLOs. The company has no right to the benefits from, nor does it bear the risks associated with, the collateral assets held by the CLOs beyond the c

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
In the normal course of its business, the company is primarily exposed to market risk in the form of AUM market price risk, securities market risk, interest rate risk and foreign exchange rate risk.
AUM Market Price Risk
The company's investment management revenues are comprised of fees based on the value of AUM. Declines in the market prices of equity and fixed income securities, commodities and derivatives, or other similar financial instruments held in client portfolios could cause revenues to decline because of lower investment management fees by:
-
Causing the value of AUM to decrease.
-
Causing the returns realized on AUM to decrease (impacting performance fees).
-
Causing clients to withdraw funds in favor of investments in markets that they perceive to offer greater opportunity and that the company does not serve.
-
Causing clients to rebalance assets away from investments that the company manages into investments that the company does not manage.
-
Causing clients to reallocate assets away from products that earn higher revenues into products that earn lower revenues.
Underperformance of client accounts relative to competing products could exacerbate these factors.
Assuming the revenue yield on AUM for the year remains unchanged, a decline in the average AUM for the year would result in a corresponding decline in revenue. Certain expenses, including distribution and compensation expenses, may not vary in proportion with the changes in the market value of AUM. As such, the impact on operating margin or net income of a decline in the market values of AUM may be greater than the percentage decline in the market value of AUM.
Securities Market Risk
The company's exposure to market risk from financial instruments measured at fair value arises primarily from its investments. The following table summarizes the impact of a 10% increase or decrease in the fair values of these financial instruments:
| December 31, 2025 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (in millions) | Fair Value | Fair Value assuming 10% increase | Fair Value assuming 10% decrease | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Equity investments (1) | $ | 414.4 | $ | 455.8 | $ | 373.0 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Total assets measured at fair value exposed to market risk | $ | 414.4 | $ | 455.8 | $ | 373.0 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Net investments in CIP (2) | $ | 397.1 | $ | 436.8 | $ | 357.4 |
(1)If such a 10% increase or decrease in fair values were to occur, the change attributable to $414.4 million of these equity investments would result in a corresponding increase or decrease in our pre-tax earnings. At December 31, 2025, $128.2 million of these equity investments are held to hedge economically certain deferred compensation plans in which the company's employees participate. In addition to holding equity investments, the company has a total return swap (TRS) to economically hedge certain deferred compensation plan liabilities. The notional value of the TRS at December 31, 2025 was $553.0 million. The company recognizes as compensation expense the appreciation or depreciation of the compensation liability over the award's vesting period in proportion to the vested amount of the award. The company immediately recognizes the appreciation or depreciation of these investments, which is included in other gains and losses. This creates a timing difference between the recognition of the compensation expense and the investment gain or loss impacting net income, which will reverse and will offset to zero over the life of the award at the end of the multi-year vesting period.
(2)Upon consolidation, the company's net investments in CIP are eliminated, and the assets and liabilities of the CIP are consolidated in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, which are offset by a noncontrolling interest balance representing the portion of the CIP owned by third parties. The assets of CIP include investments which are measured at fair value. If a 10% increase or decrease in the fair values of Invesco’s net investments in CIP were to occur, it would result in a corresponding increase or decrease in our Net income attributable to Invesco Ltd.
Cash balances invested in money market funds of $477.9 million have been excluded from the table above. These are valued under the market approach at the NAV of the underlying funds, which is maintained at $1.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk relates to the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily through its Debt and Cash and cash equivalent investments. On December 31, 2025, the interest rates on 48.8% of the company's borrowings were fixed for a weighted average period of 7.9 years, and the company had a balance of $437.7 million on its Revolving Credit Agreement.
The interest rate profile of the financial liabilities of the company on December 31 was:
| (in millions) | December 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | |||||||||
| Debt | |||||||||||
| Fixed rate | $ | 891.5 | $ | 890.6 | |||||||
| Floating rate | 933.6 | — | |||||||||
| Total | $ | 1,825.1 | $ | 890.6 | |||||||
| Weighted average interest rate percentage | 4.8 | % | 4.6 | % | |||||||
| Weighted average period for which rate is fixed in years | 7.9 | 8.9 |
See Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 8, “Debt,” for additional disclosures relating to the U.S. Dollar floating and fixed rate obligations.
The sensitivity of our financial assets to interest rate risk is immaterial.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk
The company has transactional currency exposures that occur when any of the company’s subsidiaries receive or pay cash in a currency different from its functional currency. Such exposure arises from sales or purchases by operating subsidiaries in currencies other than the subsidiaries’ functional currencies. These exposures are not actively managed.
In addition, the net assets and financial results of the company's foreign operations are exposed to foreign currency translation risk when translated into U.S. Dollars upon consolidation into Invesco. A strengthening U.S. Dollar has a negative impact on the company's foreign currency denominated earnings when presented in U.S. Dollars. The company's most significant foreign exchange rate risk exposure relates to the translation of Pound Sterling-denominated and Euro-denominated transactions into the U.S. Dollar reporting currency. Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Note 16, "Segment and Geographic Information," contains disclosure of revenue by geography.
The company is also exposed to foreign currency translation risk on monetary assets and liabilities that are held by subsidiaries in different functional currencies than the subsidiaries' functional currencies. The impact of the revaluation is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Net foreign exchange revaluation losses were $8.3 million in 2025 (2024: zero revaluation gains and losses) and are included in General and administrative expenses and Other gains and losses, net on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

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, 2025. 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, 2025.
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, 2025 and 2024, 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, 2025, 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, 2025, 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, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 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, 2025, 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
