Deutsche Bank-Synthetic Equity & Index Strategy-Europe Monthly ETF Market Review-Record outflows from gold in February

March 7, 2013--Global Summary
Global ETF industry assets increased by 5.9% YTD and closed the month at $1.78 trillion while the European ETF industry ended the month at €263.3bn.

The month of February was marked by cash inflows into equities (+$10.5bn) and fixed income ETFs (+$2.8bn) and outflows from commodity ETPs (-$5bn), notably gold products.

Globally, gold ETPs have lost over -$5.5bn in outflows over the month of Feb’13. This represents the largest monthly outflows from gold on record.

Regional cash flow summary

Gold outflows partially offset equity and fixed income inflows in Europe

Cash flows into European domiciled ETFs continued in February, albeit at a slower pace as compared to the previous two months. European domiciled ETFs received cash flows of +€1.6bn, +€4.6bn and +€5.3bn in the months of Feb’13, Jan’13 and Dec’12 respectively.

Equity ETFs had the lion’s share of the monthly cash flows contributing +€1.2bn, with fixed income ETFs adding +€681mn. Commodity ETPs recorded outflows totalling -€848mn over the month of February. Gold ETPs alone recorded cash outflows of -€1.1bn.

Within the equity asset class, developed markets (DM) attracted the majority of cash flows (+€1.2bn). Emerging markets witnessed outflows of -€244mn (inflows of €1.1bn in Jan’13). Dividend strategies attracted greater cash flows in the month (+€348mn) than any country, sector or other equity category except US equities (+€355mn).

Equity cash flows dominate in the US; largest monthly outflows from gold

As in Europe, cash flow activity slowed down across US domiciled ETFs in the month of February which recorded +$11.4bn of inflows as compared to +$30.2bn received in Jan’13. Equities registered monthly inflows of $9.4bn as compared to +$28.7bn in Jan’13.

Within equities, ETFs tracking developed markets (DM) benchmarks were the largest beneficiary registering cash inflows of +$3.1bn. ETFs tracking US sectors, small caps, quant and dividend focused strategies collected monthly cash inflows of +$3.1bn, +$1.4bn, +$1.4bn and +$1.1bn respectively. Large cap and emerging market (EM) benchmarked ETFs recorded cash outflows of -$4.1bn and -$1.1bn in February.

Fixed income ETFs received cash flows of +$1.8bn, a modest increase over the +$1.1bn received in the month of Jan’13. Most fixed income segments recorded positive cash flows over February, except sovereigns which recorded cash outflows of -$280mn (YTD -$2bn). Corporates continued to attract healthy flows; +$862mn in monthly flows taking the total to +$2.6bn YTD. ETFs holding a mix of sovereign & corporate bonds received +$574mn in monthly flows.

Commodity ETVs registered cash outflows of -$3.8bn over the month, mostly due to outflows from gold products (-$4.1bn).

Outflows from EM equities in Asia, DM received modest cash inflows

The Asia-Pacific ETP market experienced cash outflows for the second consecutive month this year. The region’s ETP cash flows totaled -$394mn in February taking the YTD total to -$670mn.

In contrast to January, EM equity ETFs recorded outflows of -$898mn (+$533mn in Jan) while DM equity ETFs recorded inflows of +$372mn during February (-$1.2bn in Jan).

ETFs offering exposure to China, registered outflows of -$472mn, followed by South Korea (-$216mn) and Taiwan (-$210mn), while Japan witnessed +$253mn of inflows followed by Hong Kong (+$103mn). Leveraged long equity ETFs lost -$271mn in cash outflows while short ETFs received +$155mn of inflows during February.
