Renowned for its comprehensive active and passive investment offerings, Invesco provides services to institutional and individual clients in regions such as North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. Before any of that matters to a Muslim investor, one question comes first: is Invesco stock Halal?

Is Invesco Shariah compliant?

In financial services the activity screen carries the verdict more often than anywhere else: AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 draws a hard line between fee based, permissible services and earning Riba as a business model. For Invesco, that distinction comes first, with the debt and investment ratios behind it.

Does Invesco pass the business activity test?

The activity screen is only part of the picture this month: Invesco currently fails the non-permissible income screen, so the overall verdict is not compliant regardless of the business itself. The watch item in this sector is the sharpest of all: revenue must come from permissible services, not from lending at interest.

Is Invesco's income Halal?

No. Invesco's income from impermissible sources currently exceeds AAOIFI's 5% revenue ceiling, which makes the stock non-compliant on this screen regardless of the others. The screen is reassessed monthly, so the status can change when new financial statements arrive.

Does Invesco meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?

Yes. Both caps hold this month: interest bearing investments and interest bearing debt each stay below 30% of market capitalisation. Because the caps move with the share price, our Shariah Supervisory Board has IVZ re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
