This was primarily due to higher sales of mutual funds, driven by acquisitions of investment planners and value partners, as well as higher sales of spin-off funds, the company said in a report to shareholders.<\/p>\n<p>The firm had $941 billion in assets under management as of March 31, down from $1.04 trillion at the same time last year.
