My Two Reason are,

First is with a company like this, it's not make the rigght choice

for thier shareholders, bringing not eought grow or buying other company make a perfect opportunity for a buy.

Secound is IVZ has a Drip Plan, not many know about IVZ

is a buy right now at this price for there share's, so it's a buy.

With new leadership at the helm and some of the top leaders no longer there to undermine the company, it will outperform previous past, cleaning up all past problems. Steamlining the company globally has lead to new, better and more efficient accounting, protocol and offerings to shareholders. Will increase my buying of stock.

Turnaround situation. Performance and flows are improving. Significant opportunity to reduce costs by intergrating many functions that were run independently before due to holding company structure/attitude. CEO helped Franklin Resources improve their performance when he was co-CEO there. Valuation is cheap relative to US and UK peers. Opportunity for re-valuation when mgmt decides to relist in US since US asset managers have higher valuation than in UK. Listing in US could happen in 2008 since 50% of owners should be US based by then, which would require full SEC filings (major incentive to list in US to avoid additional costs)

AMVESCAP is one of the world largest independent asset mangers, operating with well-established brands in the investment space. It looks like a reinvigorated giant, full of life under the new leadership and has a good asset base, well diversified, spanning across all asset class, customer segments and geographies.

Though in the recent past, it had taken a beating with poor investment returns, decreasing margins, tarnished image and costly legal settlements, things are slowly changing from the recent quarter. AMVESCAP finished the year 2006 with assets under management (AUM) up 23.9% at $717 billion wholly attributed to market appreciation, acquisitions and foreign currency gains. The trend has been a gradual shift towards equity component from debt, serving more non-U.S. domicile clients as well as alternative investments stealing the spotlight.

The management is very much focused on cutting cost. Endorsing the same, it is consolidating its back office operations and reducing layer of decision-making process. Resorting to global human talent and relocation of jobs to low cost destinations like India and Canada would help it drive margins. Moreover it is consolidating its North American operations and re-branding itself as IVESCO.

The company is very bullish on the exchange traded fund segment (ETF) for which it has acquired Power Share Capital Management. Power Share has recently floated three new ETF in American Stock Exchange and has been selected by NASDAQ to sponsor its ETF from 2007, currently pending approval from Securities Exchange Commission. The private equity boutique WL Ross and Co seems to gain from the current growing global economy, robust corporate earning and positive signs like U.S capital market indices touching the all time high.

AMVESCAP is trading attractively, with a lower price to earning ratio among its peer groups, given its excellent profile after restructuring with a good asset mix and prospects steered by an excellent management.

Amvescap's profit margins are among the worst of any asset manager we cover due to lax expense control and a spate of costly legal settlements.

Growth has been anemic in recent years with a combination of poor investment returns and well-publicized ethical lapses driving many investors away.

Though Amvescap's recent purchase of private equity house WL Ross & Co. should boost the company's profile in the alternative investments arena, management will have to scare up plenty of demand to justify the deal's $130 million-plus price tag.

Amvescap's AIM mutual funds have been unimpressive performers on the whole, with the average AIM offering (on an asset-weighted basis) garnering fewer than 3 stars under Morningstar's rating system.

Though by no means over-leveraged, Amvescap carries more debt on its balance sheet than the typical asset manager. This could hamper the firm's flexibility to acquire or tactically invest in the future.
