Invesco Capital Management LLC has announced that its global exchange-traded funds (ETF) business has begun a new initiative to provide better access to Japanese investors across five of its leading U.S.-listed ETFs.
An investment adviser, Invesco, overseeing a wide range ETFs, has shown its commitment to improving accessibility for Japanese investors with enhanced access to five of its top-performing ETFs listed in the U.S., according to a story by PR Newswire.
"We are thrilled to have the opportunity to expand Invesco's global ETF business into Japan," said Anna Paglia, managing director and global head of ETFs and indexed strategies for Invesco, in the story. "Taking these regulatory steps affirms our commitment to providing Japanese investors easier access to Invesco ETFs."
Tom Digby, Invesco's head of ETF business development and capital markets for the Asia Pacific region, will work with Invesco Japan to further expand Invesco's ETF and indexed strategies business, PR Newswire reported.
According to Cision U.S., Invesco is partnering with Invesco Asset Management Japan to extend the presence of Invesco's ETF and indexed strategies business. By working together, the companies said they have successfully fulfilled the necessary regulatory notification process that will allow Japanese investors to access five U.S.-listed ETFs.
To make that possible, Invesco has strengthened its client-facing services in Japan, the release stated.
Invesco has headquarters in Atlanta, and Martin Flanagan is CEO.
According to PR Newswire, Invesco Capital Management is the investment adviser to the Invesco family of ETFs. Invesco Capital Management has the overall responsibility for selecting and continuously monitoring ETF investments, managing the ETF business affairs and providing certain clerical, bookkeeping and other administrative services for the ETFs, but it does not sell securities, PR Newswire noted.
As such, the partnership should not be construed as an offer to buy or sell any financial instruments, the companies stressed. Invesco Capital Management and Invesco Asset Management Japan Limited are indirect, wholly owned subsidiaries of Invesco.
