Cohen & Steers' (CNS) January AUM Falls 4.6% on Weak Markets
Cohen & Steers, Inc. (CNS - Free Report) reported preliminary assets under management (AUM) of $79.3 billion as of Jan 31, 2024. This reflected a decline of 4.6% from the prior month's level.
The decrease was due to a net outflow of $1.5 billion, a market depreciation of $2.2 billion and distributions of $157 million.
Cohen & Steers recorded total institutional accounts of $32 billion at the end of January 2024, falling 8.6% from the December 2023-end level. Of the total institutional accounts, advisory accounts were $18 billion, while the rest were sub-advisory.
Closed-end funds were $10.9 billion, down 1.9% from the December 2023-end level. Also, Open-end funds were $36.4 billion, which fell 1.6% from the prior month.
CNS’ diverse product offerings, global reach and investment strategies are expected to support its financials. A solid AUM balance is likely to continue supporting the top line. However, a challenging operating environment is a major near-term headwind, which might hurt its financials to some extent.
Over the past three months, shares of Cohen & Steers have jumped 31%, outperforming the industry’s growth of 24.7%.
