File Nos: 811-01540 and 002-27334 |
Dear Mr. Di Stefano:
On behalf of AIM Funds Group (Invesco Funds Group) (the Registrant), below you will find the
Registrants responses to the comments conveyed by you in December, 2010, with regard to
Post-Effective Amendment No. 109 under the Securities Act of 1933 and Amendment No. 109 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Amendment) to the Registrants registration statement on Form
N-1A. The Amendment was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on
October 21, 2010, pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and Rule 485(a)(1)
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act) and is scheduled to go
effective December 23, 2010.
For your convenience, we have summarized each of your comments in bold and have set forth the
Registrants response immediately below each comment.
Invesco Global Core Equity Fund
1. Comment: Remove the first footnote following the fee table that refers to estimated amounts of
Other Expenses and Total Annual Operating Expenses as this Fund is not new.
Response: The Registrant respectfully declines to take this comment. The Fund was registered with
the SEC during February, 2010. On June 1, 2010, the Fund acquired the assets of a corresponding
fund formerly advised by Morgan Stanley or Van Kampen. As such, the Fund has not completed a full
fiscal year under Invesco service agreements and pricing methodologies, and amounts for Other
Expenses and Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses will be estimated until the Fund has been
advised by Invesco Advisers, Inc. for a complete fiscal year.

2. Comment: The first sentence of the first paragraph in the sections entitled, Principal
Investment Strategies of the Fund and Investment Objectives, Strategies, Risks and Portfolio
Holdings, the Prospectus states, The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of
nets assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities. In what types of
equity securities will the Fund invest?
Response: The sentence has been revised as follows:
|
|
The Fund invests primarily in equity securities, specifically, common and
preferred stocks, convertible securities, rights and warrants to purchase common
stock and depositary receipts. |
