ETF flows:<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n

Investors maintained a cautious bias and money markets funds and ETFs gathered most inflows.<\/p>\n

ETFs<\/strong> gathered \u20ac8.1bn through April 2020. Fixed Income and Equity ETFs accumulated \u20ac8.0bn and \u20ac0.3bn respectively.<\/p>\n

ESG ETFs<\/strong> continued their solid flow trend and gathered \u20ac1.4bn.<\/p>\n

Smart Beta ETFs<\/strong> recorded further outflows with \u20ac-1.4bn.<\/p>\n

Fixed Income funds and ETFs<\/strong>: fixed income funds and ETFs gathered a combined \u20ac30.6bn of net new assets with \u20ac22.6bn into open-ended funds and \u20ac8.0bn into ETFs.<\/p>\n

Equity fund and ETFs<\/strong>: equity ETFs and openended funds enjoyed \u20ac19.1bn of net new assets, with \u20ac18.8bn into funds and \u20ac0.3bn into ETFs.<\/p>\n

ETFs had large outflows (\u20ac-25.6bn) over the month<\/strong>, with Fixed Income and Equity ETFs losing \u20ac-13.3bn and \u20ac-13.0bn respectively.<\/p>\n

Flows summary for the European ETF market in April 2020.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

What happened last month?<\/p>\n

– Equity ETFs gathered \u20ac0.3bn in net new assets. <\/strong><\/p>\n

– Fixed Income ETFs gathered \u20ac8.0bn over the same period.<\/strong><\/p>\n

– Another strong month for ESG ETFs with \u20ac1.4bn in net new assets.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Market sentiment started to recover in April after the rout triggered by the spread of Covid-19 and subsequent containment measures adopted across the globe.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Flows into riskier assets started to materialise over the month including \u20ac19.1bn into Equities.<\/p>\n

Zooming in to sectors, April was a very strong month, with World sector funds and ETFs gathering \u20ac9.5bn. Flows went mainly to funds with exposure to the Technology, Healthcare and Energy sectors.<\/p>\n

While the cumulative monthly flows for World sectors are already impressive, it is also worth highlighting that these sectors enjoyed daily inflows throughout April.<\/p>\n

Flows into these sectors during April were supported by a variety of investment rationales such as:<\/p>\n

– Healthcare: race to find a treatment and develop a vaccine.<\/strong><\/p>\n

– Technology: the increasing importance of digital through a lockdown period (ecommerce, streaming platforms, etc.)<\/strong><\/p>\n

– Energy: repositioning for a recovery of the oil price after high inventories and collapsing demand led to an 80%+ decline<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fixed Income funds and ETFs gathered \u20ac30.6bn in April 2020, of which \u20ac22.6bn went into open-ended funds and \u20ac8.0bn into ETFs.<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n
