The first half of 2018 saw the global ETF market collect more than 188 billion euros, the vast majority of these in equity ETFs (more than 125 billion)….<\/span><\/p>\n

Flows slowed in June to 5.5 billion euros, of which slightly under one billion went into the European market.<\/p>\n

The ETF market closed the first half of 2018 with a contrasting month in June across its three main geographical areas. While in Asia, inflows remained dynamic at \u20ac6.2 billion, they were lower in Europe (+0.98 billion) and even more so in the United States (-1.6 billion).<\/p>\n

Worldwide, the global ETF market gained 5.5 billion net subscriptions over the past month, totalling more than 188 billion since the beginning of the year.<\/p>\n

US equities preferred<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the European market specifically, equity ETFs suffered from 235 million euros of withdrawals in June.<\/p>\n

As in previous months, European investors continued to favour North American equities (+\u20ac2 billion), global equity ETFs (+576 million) and even European equity ETFs (+726 million), at the expense of Eurozone (-824 million), Japanese (-1.29 billion) and emerging market ETFs (-1.54 billion).<\/p>\n

Among Smart Beta ETFs<\/strong>, multi-factor approaches continued to prove attractive (+114 million), though investors reduced their exposure to the value strategy (-381 million).<\/p>\n

Floating Rate Notes seduce<\/strong><\/p>\n

As far as fixed income ETFs are concerned, there is a waitand-see attitude in Europe: they only managed to attain 998 million euros of net subscriptions in June.<\/p>\n

European investors continued to show their reluctance to return to corporate bonds, with only \u20ac35 million of net inflows, explained by the good performance of floating rate notes (+197 million), against withdrawals from Eurozone corporate bonds (investment grade and high yield).<\/p>\n

Arbitrage in favour of sovereign bonds was limited to +769 million, with a more marked interest in the US market (particularly through inflation-linked bonds).<\/p>\n
