Brussels, 14th February 2013
For immediate release
Long-term UCITS register strong net sales in December 2012 and reach EUR 234 billion of inflows in 2012
A continued increase in optimism on the economic outlook was brought about in December 2012 by reduced tensions in
the euro area sovereign debt markets and rising stock markets, which supported equity funds in attracting their
highest level of monthly net inflows since January 2011.
