Long-term UCITS register net inflows of EUR 37 billion in June 2014
The European Fund and Asset Management Association (EFAMA) has today published its latest Investment Funds Industry Fact Sheet, which provides net sales of UCITS and non-UCITS for June 2014.
The main developments in June 2014 in the reporting countries can be summarised as follows:
Net sales of UCITS fell to EUR 22 billion from EUR 43 billion in May, on account of a decline in net sales of long-term funds and increased net outflows from money market funds.
Long-term UCITS (UCITS excluding money market funds) registered net inflows of EUR 37 billion, down from EUR 48 billion in May.
o Net sales of bond funds reduced to EUR 13 billion, from EUR 20 billion in May.
o Net sales of equity funds fell to EUR 2 billion, from EUR 7 billion.
o In contrast, balanced funds enjoyed increased net inflows of EUR 18 billion compared to EUR 17 billion in May.
Money market funds registered net outflows of EUR 15 billion, compared to net outflows of EUR 5 billion in May.
Total non-UCITS net sales reduced slightly in June to EUR 8 billion from EUR 9 billion in May. Net sales of special funds (funds reserved to institutional investors) reduced to EUR 4 billion in June, down from EUR 7 billion in May.
Total net assets of UCITS stood at EUR 7,525 billion at end June 2014, representing a 1.1 percent increase during the month. Total net assets of non-UCITS increased 1.1 percent to stand at EUR 3,013 billion at month end. Overall, total net assets of the European investment fund industry stood at EUR 10,538 billion at end June 2014.
Bernard Delbecque, Director of Economics and Research commented:
Net sales of long-term UCITS declined in June on the back of mixed economic data and heightened geopolitical tensions.
