EFAMA has today published its latest Monthly Statistical Release for January 2024.

 

Thomas Tilley, Senior Economist at EFAMA, commented on the January 2024 figures: “January 2024 saw a continuation of the same trends as in 2023 - strong net inflows into fixed-income funds and ETFs. In comparison, multi-asset and equity funds saw much more subdued, or even negative, demand.”

  • UCITS and AIFs recorded net inflows of EUR 66bn, down from EUR 96bn in December.

     

  • UCITS attracted substantial net inflows of EUR 54bn, compared to EUR 39bn in December.

      • Equity funds registered net inflows of EUR 1bn, compared to EUR 3bn in December.
