          AMVESCAP REPORTS RESULTS FOR SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2006

London, July 27, 2006 - AMVESCAP reported that profit before tax for the six
months ended June 30, 2006 amounted to $355.9 million (six months ended
June 30, 2005:  $222.4 million).  Operating profit for the six months ended

"AMVESCAP continues to make good progress in our efforts to become a premier
global investment management organization for our clients and shareholders,"
said AMVESCAP President and CEO Martin L. Flanagan. "Positive net fund flows and
more efficient operation of our global organization have produced higher
operating margins for the first half of 2006. The upcoming addition of
PowerShares's distinctive line of ETFs and this week's announcement of our
acquisition of WL Ross & Co. LLC, a recognized leader in financial
restructuring, will further deepen AMVESCAP's global capabilities and broaden
the investment skills we make available for our clients."

Earnings Summary

Net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006, were $1,172.2 million (six
months ended June 30, 2005: $1,085.6 million). Net revenues for six months ended
June 30, 2006, included the recognition of institutional performance fees of
$45.8 million (six months ended June 30, 2005: $14.7 million). Operating
expenses totaled $793.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 (six
months ended June 30, 2005: $822.5 million). The net operating margin for the
six months ended June 30, 2006, was 32.3% (six months ended June 30, 2005:
24.2%).

Net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2006, were $588.1 million
(three months ended March 31, 2006: $584.1 million). Net revenues for the three
months ended June 30, 2006, included the recognition of institutional
performance fees of $12.6 million (three months ended March 31, 2006: $33.2
million). Operating expenses totaled $396.4 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2006 (three months ended March 31, 2006: $397.5 million). The net
operating margin for the three months ended June 30, 2006, was 32.6% (three

Net debt (total debt of $1,287.0 million, less cash and cash equivalents of
$477.0 million, which excludes client cash of $10.2 million) as of June 30, 2006
was $810.0 million compared to $861.1 million as of March 31, 2006, and $733.6
million as of December 31, 2005. Client cash for the six months ended June 30,
2006, decreased $256.0 million since December 31, 2005. The decrease in client
cash, which contributed to the movement in our operating cashflows, was
primarily due to one depository account sponsored by our banking subsidiary
being replaced by an unaffiliated investment fund.

Dividend

The Board has declared an interim dividend of $0.077 per share (2005: 4.0p or
$0.074 per share). The ex-dividend date for the dividend will be September 6,
2006. The interim dividend will be paid on October 11, 2006, to shareholders on
the register on September 8, 2006, the record date, which will also be the date
upon which the foreign exchange rate will be established for payment to
shareholders who receive their dividends in sterling.

Assets Under Management

Assets under management (AUM) at June 30, 2006, were $413.8 billion (March 31,
2006: $410.9 billion). Average assets under management during the second quarter
of 2006 were $414.6 billion, compared to $401.3 billion for the first quarter of
2006 and $373.1 billion for the second quarter of 2005.

Long-term net inflows for the six months ended June 30, 2006, were $3.8 billion,
with inflows of $46.6 billion and outflows of $42.8 billion. Net inflows for the
three months ended June 30, 2006 were $2.3 billion and net inflows for three
months ended March 31, 2006 were $1.5 billion. In addition, money market assets
continue to grow, with net inflows of $2.2 billion in the second quarter of 2006
and $7.4 billion in the first quarter of 2006. Further analysis of AUM is
included in the supplemental schedules to this release.

Business Developments

During the second quarter, AMVESCAP continued to make progress in our efforts to
work more effectively as a global organization. We have begun to align
AMVESCAP's global operating platform by transforming the support structure of
our organization around the world, with a goal of streamlining our operations
and driving renewed efficiency. Internal measurement tools have been modified to
help gauge effectiveness as we work to implement the strategic plans outlined as
part of our year-end 2005 earnings presentation. Although some benefits of these
efforts will be realized during 2006, the most significant benefits should
become evident over the next few years.

In the meantime, the company continued to actively manage costs by focusing on
spending and incremental efficiency improvements. AMVESCAP is on track to meet
the expense commitments made in early 2006, subject to variances arising from
market and foreign exchange movements.

Relative investment performance improved during the quarter and the company
experienced positive net flows through both retail and institutional channels.
Flows were driven primarily by sales from our fixed income, money market, and
alternative asset class products, but also benefited from improved redemption
rates.

Operating results reflect the building momentum of the business. Net operating
margins were 32.6% for the quarter versus 31.9% in the first quarter and 24.4%
in the same quarter of 2005.

The previously announced acquisition of PowerShares Capital Management, an
Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) provider, is scheduled to close in the third quarter.
The ETFs offered by PowerShares will complement the fund lineup and expand the
breadth of products we can offer to our clients through AIM Investments.
PowerShares fund assets grew to $5.9 billion at June 30, 2006.

                                      Notes


1.   Accounting policies
     The accounting policies applied to the information in the earnings release
     follow International Financial Reporting Standards in effect as of the date
     of this release and are consistent with those applied in the 2005 Annual
     Report. Refer to the 2005 Annual Report, available at www.amvescap.com, for
     a more detailed discussion of these policies. The accounting policies
     applied to the information in this earnings release are also consistent
     with those that are expected to be applied in the 2006 Annual Report.

     The interim financial information has been prepared under the measurement
     and recognition principles of IFRS as permitted by the Committee of
     European Securities Regulators and does not purport to be a complete or
     condensed set of interim financial statements in accordance with IAS 34,
     "Interim Financial Reporting".

2.   Taxation
     A significant proportion of the tax charge arose from U.S., U.K., and
     Canadian operations.  The effective rate is 36.6% for the six months
     ended June 30, 2006 (the six months ended June 30, 2005: 35.8%).

3.   Earnings per share
     Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of
     ordinary and exchangeable shares outstanding during the respective periods,
     excluding shares purchased and held by employee share ownership trusts.
     Diluted earnings per share takes into account the effect of the potential
     issuance of ordinary shares.

     for exchangeable shares) was approved at the Annual General meeting of

6.   Statutory financial statements
     The financial information shown in this earnings release is unaudited and
     does not constitute statutory financial statements. The 2005 Annual
     Report, which was filed with the Registrar of Companies on May 31, 2006,
     includes an unqualified audit report in
     accordance with Section 235 of the Companies Act 1985. This audit report

     Companies Act 1985.







INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO AMVESCAP PLC

We have been instructed by the company to review the financial information for
the six months ended 30 June 2006 which comprises consolidated financial
statements such as the Consolidated Income Statement, Consolidated Balance
Sheet, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, Consolidated Cash Flow
Statement, and the related notes 1 to 6. We have read the other information
contained in the interim report and considered whether it contains any apparent
misstatements or material inconsistencies with the financial information.

This report is made solely to the company in accordance with guidance contained
in Bulletin 1999/4 'Review of interim financial information' issued by the
Auditing Practices Board. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not
accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company, for our work,
for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed.

Directors' responsibilities

The interim report, including the financial information contained therein, is
the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors. The directors
are responsible for preparing the interim report in accordance with the Listing
Rules of the Financial Services Authority which require that the accounting
policies and presentation applied to the interim figures should be consistent
with those applied in preparing the preceding annual accounts except where any
changes, and the reasons for them, are disclosed.

Review work performed

We conducted our review in accordance with guidance contained in Bulletin 1999/4
'Review of interim financial information' issued by the Auditing Practices Board
for use in the United Kingdom. A review consists principally of making enquiries
of group management and applying analytical procedures to the financial
information and underlying financial data, and based thereon, assessing whether
the accounting policies and presentation have been consistently applied, unless
otherwise disclosed. A review excludes audit procedures such as tests of
controls and verification of assets, liabilities and transactions. It is
substantially less in scope than an audit performed in accordance with
International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and therefore provides a
lower level of assurance than an audit. Accordingly we do not express an audit
opinion on the financial information.

Review conclusion

On the basis of our review we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the financial information as presented for the six months
ended 30 June 2006.
