Investment funds record again a positive fundraising in the 2nd quarter
- Second quarter of 2020: non-monetary mutual funds record inflows of 4 billion (see table p.2) after 3 consecutive quarters of outflows. Households are the main investors (+10 bn) while MFIs record net withdrawals (-13 bn). Funds invest primarily in securities issued by non-financial corporations (+5 billion) at the expense of those issued by MFIs (-5 billion).
MMFs also record a positive inflow of 18 billion following the first quarter outflow of -9 billion, partly due to the effects of the health crisis. These net subscriptions are mainly attributable to resident non-financial corporations and non-resident investors (+19 and +7 billion respectively, see table 2). - Over one year Non-monetary mutual funds experience a net outflow of -25 billion. Net withdrawals impact bond (-13 billion), equity (-9 billion) and mixed funds (-9 billion), while real estate and employee savings funds record positive inflows (+7 and +2 billion respectively) (see graph G1). In terms of investments, net sales mainly concern mutual fund shares/units (-17 billion). On the investors' side, resident MFIs (-14 billion) and non-euro area residents (-15 billion) account for these net withdrawals.
MMFs record an outflow of -2 billion. On the asset side, short-term and long-term debt securities (respectively -24 billion and -15 billion, see Table 2) are largely sold in favor of deposits and other net investments (+38 billion). At the investor level, withdrawals mainly come from insurance companies (-18 billion), offset by net subscriptions from resident non-financial corporations (+18 billion).
