Invesco Field at Mile High apparently will keep its name for at least another year.
London money management giant Amvescap Plc made a $2.39 million naming rights payment on schedule Monday, said Matt Sugar, a former spokesman for the Metropolitan Football Stadium District.
In past years, the company has paid early.
Denver-based mutual fund family Invesco Funds Group, an Amvescap subsidiary, agreed to a 20-year, $120 million naming rights and advertising rights contract in 2000.
Invesco Funds ceased operations last fall. The group’s former chief who sought the agreement, Mark Williamson, resigned in April from Amvescap.
Speculation that Amvescap was for sale in early July also raised doubts about the stadium name, which a buyer of Amvescap could change.
