USAA Asset would become Victory Capital's 11th investment boutique.

Brown, chairman and CEO of Victory Capital, said in the earnings release that the acquisition would be "a strong diversifier for us with the addition of quality investment teams and products." Mr. Brown said USAA's clients, mainly military personnel and their families," will open "a new distribution channel with a loyal member base."
The USAA deal is expected to close in the second quarter.
The agreement is the second announced by Victory in less than two months. The company announced Sept. 24 that it was acquiring derivatives firm Harvest Volatility Management for $300 million in a deal expected to close in the first quarter of 2019. Harvest manages $12 billion in assets.
Mr. Brown said in the release that the acquisition of USAA Asset and Harvest "demonstrate the value of our differentiated business model."
