CI Global Asset Management announced name changes for 37 mutual funds and ETFs previously managed by Invesco Canada Ltd. [1].
This rebranding follows the formal closing of a larger acquisition, signaling the integration of Invesco's Canadian operations into CI's portfolio. The move allows CI GAM to align the acquired assets with its own corporate branding and management structure.
The announcement came on June 2, 2026 [1], shortly after the transaction was completed on June 1, 2026 [1]. The company is based in Toronto, Canada [2].
As part of the broader deal, CI GAM acquired the management agreements for 98 Invesco Canada mutual funds and ETFs [1]. While the total number of acquired agreements reached 98 [1], the company said 37 funds and ETFs would undergo immediate name changes [1].
The transition is the final step in the acquisition of the management agreements. By updating the names of these financial products, CI GAM aims to clarify the new ownership and management of the assets for investors across Canada.
The firm said it did not provide further details on the specific naming conventions for each of the 37 funds in the initial announcement [1].
