BestInvest, an online investment platform, just released their twice-yearly Spot the Dog report.
The report analyses the worst-performing funds across different sectors.
These are the five firms that had the most assets under management in the list.
Even the biggest names in asset management can get it wrong and BestInvest just called out some of the top losers.
In its twice-yearly Spot the Dog report, the online investment service names and shames the top underperforming funds and firms, and Invesco has topped the list for the sixth time in a row.

Thomas Moore’s ASI UK Income Unconstrained Equity continues to struggle
Thomas Moore’s ASI UK Income Unconstrained Equity fund has come bottom and Robin Geffen has been knocked off the top spot in Sanlam’s latest ranking of UK equity income funds.
Moore’s fund has been ranked bottom of Sanlam’s black list of equity income funds, a collection of strategies Sanlam terms as “consistent underperformers” that may require “remedial action”.
It is fourth quartile over one, three and five years, although its shorter-term performance puts it top quartile over three and six months, according to FE Fundinfo.
