Cohen & Steers February AUM Down as Coronavirus Hits Markets
Read MoreHide Full Article
Cohen & Steers (CNS - Free Report) reported preliminary assets under management (AUM) of $69.3 billion as of Feb 29, 2020, down 5.5% from the prior-month level. Market depreciation of $4.4 billion and distributions of $194 million were partially offset by net inflows of $593 million.
The company recorded total institutional accounts of $29.7 billion at the end of February, down 7.5% on a sequential basis. Of the total institutional accountsas of Feb 29, advisory accounts were $14.6 billion, while the rest were sub-advisory.
Cohen & Steers recorded $30.1 billion in open-end funds, down 7.2% from $31.5 billion in the prior month. Also, close-end funds came in at $9.4 billion, declining 3.2% from January 2020.
With operations at a global level, Cohen & Steers benefits from well-diversified AUM. The company’s widespread product offerings and investment strategies continue to attract investors, in turn supporting revenue growth. However, mounting expenses — mainly due to its continued expansion efforts — will likely impede bottom-line growth to some extent.
Shares of the company have lost 12.7% over the past three months compared with 9.8% decline of the industry it belongs to.
Among other asset managers, Franklin Resources, Inc. (BEN - Free Report) also reported fall in preliminary month-end AUM balance. The company’s AUM balance as of Feb 29, 2020 declined 4.6% sequentially to $656.5 billion. The decrease was largely due to sharp market declines.
Invesco Ltd. (IVZ - Free Report) and Legg Mason Inc. are expected to release preliminary AUM results for February in the coming days.
