Amundi-Monthly ETF Allocation Ideas-SPECIAL EDITION November 2016
December 14, 2016--Asset allocation: 2017 and beyond
1 Elections in Europe, Brexit, financial stability in China and the direction
of budgetary and fiscal policy-
four key factors in the years to come?
A year ago, we were reiterating our forecasts on a 2 to 3-year horizon and, once again, this is the subject matter of this special edition. This exercise is particularly important against a political backdrop that is becoming more complex (a new President in the United States, France, etc.), in a world where monetary policy is extremely accommodative (United States, Eurozone, United Kingdom, Japan, China, etc.), but which for the most part have reached their limits and hence the temptation of budgetary and fiscal stimulus measures in many cases.

In contrast, Croatia ranks relatively well compared to the region's average, particularly on inclusion, but still lags on use of savings products.

Review of the European ETF Market, November 2016
December 12, 2016--The promoters of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) enjoyed net inflows for November. Positive market impacts in combination with net inflows led to increased assets under management in the European ETF industry (€496.1 bn) for November, up from €483.8 bn at the end of October). The increase of €12.3 bn for November was mainly driven by the performance of markets (+€7.5 bn), while net sales contributed €4.8 bn to the assets under management in the ETF segment.
With regard to the overall number of products, it was not surprising that equity funds (€338.8 bn) held the majority of the assets, followed by bond funds (€130.6 bn), commodity products (€16.1 bn), "other" funds (€6.9 bn), money market funds (€2.9 bn), alternative UCITS products (€0.5 bn), and mixed-asset funds (€0.4 bn).

Ten years of exchange traded commodities trading on Xetra
December 12, 2016--Exchange traded commodities (ETCs) have been tradable via Xetra for ten years now. ETCs enable investors to trade individual commodities and commodity indices cost-effective and liquid via the stock exchange.
They complement the wide range of investment opportunities offered by exchange traded funds (ETFs). It is not possible to track individual commodities via ETFs, because ETFs have to be sufficiently diversified at all times in line with the EU UCITS directive.
