Cohen & Steers (NYSE:CNS) has reported preliminary assets under management (AUM) of $62.9 billion as of May 31, 2019, down marginally from the prior-month level of $63.1 billion. Market appreciation of $264 million was more than offset by net outflows of $228 million and distributions of $207 million.

The company recorded total institutional accounts of $28.4 billion at the end of the month, down 1.4% on a sequential basis. Of the total institutional accounts, advisory accounts were $14 billion as of May 31, while the remaining were sub-advisory accounts.

Cohen & Steers recorded $25.2 billion in open-end funds, up 1.1% from the $24.9 billion recorded a month ago. Also, close-end funds came in at $9.3 billion, down marginally from April.

With operations spread across the globe, Cohen & Steers benefits largely from its well-diversified AUM. However, escalating expenses, mainly due to its continued expansion efforts, will keep hindering bottom-line growth.

Currently, Cohen & Steers carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell).
