Invesco has more than doubled the number of funds in its ETF UCITS Enhanced Equity range, which now accumulates 2 billion dollars in assets under management as of September 25, 2026, as announced by the manager.
The firm incorporates exposures to Global ex US, Global Small Caps, United Kingdom and Japan, to which is added the ETF on All Country World (ACWI) launched in August. Matt Tagliani, ETF product manager for EMEA at Invesco, frames the expansion in the growing demand for strategies that seek to outperform the market in a controlled manner.
Active management with an experience «similar to that of an index»
Each fund in the range aims to beat its benchmark index in the long term, once commissions are deducted, through systematic active management based on factors. To do this, it applies restrictions that limit deviations from the index, which places these vehicles halfway between purely passive management and traditional active management.
"Active management has been one of the fastest growing ETF categories in Europe this year, and strategies that seek to outperform the market in a controlled manner are the ones that register the highest demand. Invesco's Enhanced Equity strategy adopts a systematic approach in stock selection and portfolio construction, capturing factor performance in a scalable way and applying it to a broad and diversified portfolio. Now investors have a more complete set of global and regional exposures to choose from."

A quantitative process based on value, quality and momentum
Invesco's Quantitative Strategies team evaluates the attractiveness of the shares of each geographic universe with its own model. Then, an optimization process seeks the best balance between exposure to the three factors, risk considerations and transaction costs.
The entire cycle of factor evaluation, modeling and portfolio construction is repeated every month, after which the fund positions are rebalanced.
"Our Enhanced Equity strategy has a track record of over 20 years. Although these ETFs do not replicate a benchmark index, we set maximum deviation limits from the index for individual values, industries, sectors, and countries, in order to offer investors an 'index-like experience'. Our fundamental conviction, based on historical evidence, is that the combination of Value, Momentum, and Quality factors has the potential to reduce volatility and contribute to generating superior returns."

A platform of 19 active management UCITS ETFs
With these launches, Invesco now offers 19 active management equity and fixed income UCITS ETFs, with 8.4 billion dollars in assets under management. The manager was one of the first providers in Europe to offer active ETFs.
The expansion of the Enhanced Equity range comes after the firm strengthened its active ETF offering with two strategies on euro corporate investment grade debt, in a European market of actively managed ETFs in full expansion.
