Those inflows were predominantly driven by equities (+\u20ac5.3bn) and fixed income (+\u20ac2.7bn).<\/strong><\/p>\n

For once, the lion\u2019s share of equity flows for individual countries (+\u20ac2.6bn) came from somewhere other than the US.<\/p>\n

Somewhat surprisingly, all eyes were on the UK, where equities gathered +\u20ac2.3bn after developments in the Brexit saga prompted investors to progressively downplay the prospects of a no-deal outcome.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

After three years of wasteful \u201cwait and see,\u201d investors finally seem to have identified what they believe is a reasonable entry point.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, flows into commodities continued (+\u20ac229m) and smart beta ETF inflows remained relatively steady at +\u20ac492m.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, ESG ETFs continue to break records.<\/strong> Monthly inflows of \u20ac1.9bn brought their total to \u20ac11.7bn for the year\u2014well in advance of anything they\u2019ve ever achieved before.<\/p>\n

Special focus: Record flows into UK Equities<\/strong><\/p>\n

October was another strong month for Equity ETFs, but behind the headlines something unusual happened.<\/p>\n

US equity flows were surprisingly muted (+\u20ac52mn), while UK equities for once got the lion\u2019s share of the country flows (+\u20ac2.3bn out of +\u20ac2.6bn).<\/p>\n

After an already strong September (+\u20ac1.7bn), this presents a remarkable pattern: this is simply the market\u2019s best year-to-date asset gathering on our records, with +\u20ac4.4bn cumulated inflows so far.<\/p>\n

The most likely catalysts are the developments in the Brexit saga.<\/strong> Despite it being one of the most eventful months in post-war UK politics, investors have responded constructively to the heavy newsflow.<\/p>\n

Three key elements –<\/span> the House of Commons\u2019 vote in favour of Boris Johnson\u2019s Brexit bill, the disagreement over the brevity of the period they were given to discuss and scrutinize it and the government\u2019s eventual request to extend the deadline (now January 2020) \u2013 prompted investors to progressively downplay the prospects of a no-deal outcome.<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

A general election is now planned for 12 December.<\/p>\n

Its consequences could be far-reaching and go well beyond the short-term implications of Brexit.<\/p>\n

Uncertainty still prevails in currency and equity markets. But after three years of wasteful \u201cwait and see\u201d, investors seem to have identified a reasonable entry-point.<\/p>\n
