                        INVESCO Small Company Value Fund

                 Supplement to Prospectus dated December 1, 1997

The section of the above Fund's  Prospectus  entitled  "Annual Fund Expenses" is
amended to (1) delete the fourth, fifth and sixth paragraphs, and (2) substitute
the following paragraphs in their place:

          Annual Fund Operating Expenses (as a percentage of
          average net assets)
          Management Fee ............................0.75%
          12b-1 Fees.................................None
          Other Expenses(1),(2)......................0.50%
          Total Fund Operating Expenses(1),(2).......1.25%

          (1)It should be noted that the Fund's actual total operating  expenses
          were lower than the figures shown,  because the Fund's  custodian fees
          and pricing  expenses were reduced under expense offset  arrangements.
          However,  as a result of an SEC  requirement for mutual funds to state
          their total  operating  expenses  without  crediting  any such expense
          offset arrangement, the figures shown do not reflect these reductions.
          In comparing expenses for different years,  please note that the Ratio
          of Expenses to Average Net Assets shown under  "Financial  Highlights"
          do reflect  reductions  for expense  offset  arrangements  for periods
          including  and prior to the fiscal year ended July 31, 1995.  See "The
          Fund And Its Management."

          (2)Certain expenses of the Fund are being absorbed  voluntarily by IFG
          and IMR. In the absence of such absorbed  expenses,  the Fund's "Other
          Expenses" and "Total Fund  Operating  Expenses"  would have been 0.60%
          and 1.35%,  respectively,  based on the Fund's actual expenses for the
          fiscal year ended July 31, 1997.

The section of the above Fund's Prospectus  entitled  "Financial  Highlights" is
amended to (1)  delete  the  section in its  entirety,  and (2)  substitute  the
following in its place:

^ From  December 1, 1993,  commencement  of investment  operations,  to July 31,
1994.

*  Based  on  operations  for  the  period  shown  and,  accordingly,   are  not
representative of a full year.

# Various expenses of the Fund were voluntarily  absorbed by IFG and IMR for the
years  ended July 31,  1997,  1996 and 1995,  and for the period  ended July 31,
1994. If such expenses had not been voluntarily  absorbed,  ratio of expenses to
average  net  assets  would  have  been  1.35%  (prior  to  any  expense  offset
arrangement),  1.09% (prior to any expense offset arrangement),  1.32% and 1.64%
(annualized),  respectively,  and ratio of net investment  income to average net
assets would have been 0.65%, 0.61%, 0.52% and 0.56% (annualized), respectively.

@ Ratio is based on Total  Expenses  of the  Fund,  less  Expenses  Absorbed  by
Investment Adviser, which is before any expense offset arrangements.

~ Annualized

^^ The average  commission rate paid is the total brokerage  commissions paid on
applicable purchases and sales of securities for the period divided by the total
number of related shares purchased or sold which is required to be disclosed for
fiscal years beginning September 1, 1995 and thereafter.
