What Invesco Canada does

Invesco Canada Ltd. was the Canadian subsidiary of global asset manager Invesco Ltd. (NYSE: IVZ), offering a diversified platform of 98 mutual funds and exchange-traded funds covering major U.S. and Canadian indices (Nasdaq-100, S&P 500, S&P/TSX 60), factor and equal-weight strategies, sector themes (Aerospace & Defense, Clean Energy, ESG), and income solutions including the Income Advantage ETF Suite. The product shelf is built on index-tracking and rules-based factor methodologies rather than proprietary technology platforms, with revenue generated through recurring management fees on AUM distributed to individual investors, financial professionals, and institutional clients through advisor platforms and dedicated institutional channels.

The company's business model is asset-management-fee-based: management fees scale linearly with AUM. On January 13, 2026, CI Global Asset Management announced an agreement to acquire the Canadian fund business (approximately C$27 billion in AUM), and the transaction closed on June 1, 2026. Following the sale, CI GAM became manager of the 98 funds while Invesco affiliates retained a long-term sub-advisory mandate on 61 of the funds representing approximately C$13 billion. The Invesco Canada website now redirects to CI GAM, and 37 funds are scheduled to be rebranded under CI AIMvest, CI Invesco, or CI ETFs labels by July 31, 2026. Two funds (Invesco Managed Futures Fund and Invesco Global Real Estate Fund) are being terminated effective May 29, 2026, with their planned transition to CI GAM cancelled. Going forward, Invesco Canada's residual economic footprint consists of sub-advisory fee revenue on the retained C$13 billion mandate.
