European Fund-Flow Trends: May 2018-A grim month for long-term mutual funds

June 25, 2018--European investors pulled back from long-term mutual funds as the market environment and the general sentiment turned negative. As a consequence, May was the first month posting net outflows from long-term mutual funds after 16 consecutive months showing net inflows.

That said, European fund promoters still enjoyed net inflows into mixed-asset funds (+€2.5 bn), followed by commodity funds (+€1.4 bn) and alternative UCITS funds (+€1.4 bn) as well as real estate funds (+€0.4 bn), while net flows to “other” funds (-€0.8 bn), equity funds (-€7.4 bn) and bond funds (-€15.9 bn) were negative.

These fund flows added up to overall net outflows of €18.5 bn into long-term investment funds for May. ETFs contributed €1.6 bn to these flows.

ESMA clarifies CCPs' liquidity risk assessment under EMIR

June 22, 2018--The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has published today an opinion which sets out how central counterparties (CCPs) in the EU should consider in their internal risk models the liquidity risk posed by all entities towards which the CCP has a liquidity exposure, such as liquidity providers.

The opinion, published under the European Markets Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR), outlines how CCPs should assess liquidity risk, and by so doing promotes convergent risk management practices and risk control across EU.

IMF Euro Area: Staff Concluding Statement of the 2018 Article IV Mission

June 21, 2018--The euro area expansion, while still vigorous, is slowing to a more moderate pace. But global and domestic risks are rising, including escalating trade tensions, policy complacency among member states, and political shocks. Rebuilding fiscal buffers and addressing structural issues to improve resilience and build support for euro area reforms is now even more urgent.

At the same time, completing the banking union and advancing the capital markets union is necessary to foster greater private sector risk sharing. And adding a central fiscal capacity would strengthen the currency union's ability to cope with shocks. Architecture reforms should go hand-in-hand with further efforts to reduce both fiscal and financial sector risks.

Euro area growth appears to be leveling off from the very high levels of late last year. Growth is projected to remain above potential in 2018 and the output gap is expected to close. However, underlying inflation remains subdued. And despite declining unemployment, wage growth has remained muted.

Millions at financial risk over Brexit contract issue, warns TheCityUK

June 20, 2018--The personal finances of tens of millions of people are at risk because of the failure to secure cross-border contracts after Brexit, a new report has warned.
Some 36m people, and the financial stability of the UK and EEA region, are facing a "looming crisis" if the UK and EU fail to agree a solution in the next few months.

Pensions, insurance policies and business contracts are affected, as well as up to £26 trillion of outstanding uncleared derivatives contracts.

Although firms are acting urgently, a paper published by TheCityUK claims that without regulatory support it is "highly unlikely" this will be adequate to fully address the problem in the time that remains.
