Key Quotes

DM FI funds continue attracting healthy positive flows with the latest weekly print at +0.25% of AUM. The asset class has been uninterruptedly seeing inflows since the start of the year with a cumulative of +3.27% of AUM.”

“In contrast, DM Equities remained in the negative territory with an outflow of -0.13% of AUM in the latest week, a considerable deterioration from an impressive +0.34% inflow two weeks ago.”

EM FI funds recorded an inflow of +0.18% of AUM. The asset class saw a positive turnaround in the last two weeks following two preceding weeks of considerable outflows (cumulatively -0.41% of AUM).”

“Hard currency funds attracted strong positive flows (+0.54% of AUM), while local currency outflows decreased sharply to -0.11%. We see this improvement as primarily reflecting the effects of decreasing US yields following the more-dovish-than-expected Fed comments in March.”

“EM Equity funds saw outflows decreasing to -0.04% of AUM, compared to three earlier weeks of notably larger negative flows (cumulatively -0.73% of AUM).”
