(AMEX: FXX). Management, distribution and other fees increased due to an increase in mutual fund assets under management. The Company had $231 million in assets under management at March 31, 2007, an increase of 32% from $175 million at March 31, 2006. Total expenses increased due to an increase in distribution expenses attributable to the increase in assets under management.
