Amundi ETF Flows Analysis-April 2024

Investors added €54.1bn to global exchange-traded funds in April with equities gaining €31.2bn and fixed income strategies adding €21.4bn. These flows were lower compared to March, reflecting investors' lack of clarity over the future direction of interest rates.

In the global ETF market, ultrashort bonds were the most popular strategy recording inflows of €7.4bn as investors took advantage of the yields offered by these products at minimal duration risk. Continuing the trend in fixed income from recent months, there were outflows in corporate debt and high yield strategies.

Large blend -US equity-indices gained €7.0bn, continuing the long-run trend. Japanese equities also maintained their momentum adding €3.4bn this month despite some investor concerns about valuations looking overstretched in this region.
