At the end of May, VCTR’s U.S. Mid Cap Equity AUM grew 0.4% from the April reading to $29.2 billion and the U.S. Small Cap Equity AUM of $16.2 was up marginally. Also, the Global/Non-U.S. Equity AUM was up 1.5% to $14.7 billion. On the other hand, the U.S. Large Cap Equity AUM fell 1.5% sequentially to $13 billion.

Also, Money Market/Short Term assets rose 0.9% to 3.1 billion. Nonetheless, Fixed Income AUM was $30.6 billion, down 1.6% from the prior month’s figure.
The sound positioning of Victory Capital’s integrated multi-boutique business model in a rapidly-evolving industry and the effectiveness of the distribution platform might support its performance in the coming days. Yet, unfavorable market performance remains a drag.
Shares of VCTR have lost 18.8% over the past three months compared with the industry's fall of 9.2%.
