Lyxor-ETF Money Monitor-January 2018
January 17, 2018--ETF flows slow, but fly past annual record
European ETF market flows slowed substantially in December 2017 to €4.2bn from €10.4bn in November. It was one of the lowest figures for any month in 2017. Nevertheless, flows still hit an all-time annual high of €93.9bn-a massive €20bn+ ahead of their previous record.
Flows into equities were still positive, but much slower than in previous months as interest in Japanese and European exposures cooled. In fact, we saw the first month of outflows from European equities in 2017. Flows did however surge into US equities with investors lured by the prospects for tax reform and the opportunities it could bring.
