The European Fund and Asset Management Association (EFAMA) has today published its latest monthly Investment Fund Industry Fact Sheet, which provides net sales data on UCITS, and AIFs sold in June 2021, at European level and by country of fund domiciliation.
Bernard Delbecque, Senior Director for Economics and Research at EFAMA, commented: “Despite the rapid spread of the Delta variant, net sales of equity UCITS remained strong in June, supported by investor trust in the effectiveness of the Covid-19 vaccination campaign and the strength of the economic recovery.”
