T. Rowe Price Group Inc (NASDAQ: TROW) is an investment management company that provides active investment strategies across a broad range of asset classes to institutional and individual clients globally. Revenue is generated primarily through investment advisory fees calculated as a percentage of assets under management, meaning fee income rises and falls with market values and net client flows. The firm distributes its strategies through U.S. mutual funds, collective investment trusts, exchange-traded funds, subadvised funds, separately managed accounts, affiliated private investment funds, business development companies, interval funds, collateralized loan obligations, and variable annuity products, as well as open-ended products offered to investors outside the U.S. The investment management industry faces structural pressure from the ongoing shift from active to passive strategies and persistent fee compression, trends the firm acknowledges in its FY2025 10-K filed February 13, 2026. T. Rowe Price is headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland and has been publicly traded since its initial public offering.
