The company’s diversified business model and efforts to broaden distribution reach to international markets and strategic acquisitions will support its top-line growth in the upcoming period. However, the company’s overdependence on investment advisory fees is concerning. Escalating expenses will likely affect the company’s bottom-line growth.

Over the past three months, shares of T. Rowe Price have risen 3% compared with the industry’s 1.9% growth.
