European investment funds attracted \u20ac274 billion in net inflows during the first quarter of 2026, according to the European Fund and Asset Management Association (Efama), the trade body.<\/p>\n
Net assets of Ucits and alternative investment funds (AIFs) increased by 0.5% over the quarter, according to Efama\u2019s data. Ucits gained \u20ac251 billion in net sales, while AIFs saw net inflows of \u20ac24 billion.<\/p>\n
Long-term funds gained \u20ac217 billion in net inflows. Equity funds led the way with \u20ac90 billion in new money, followed by bond funds at \u20ac69 billion and multi-asset funds at \u20ac43 billion.<\/p>\n
Net sales of money market funds reached \u20ac57 billion in the first quarter, up from \u20ac17 billion in the previous quarter.<\/p>\n
Long-term funds classified under the EU\u2019s Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation Article 9 category ( funds with sustainable investment as their primary objective) saw their tenth consecutive quarter of net outflows, losing \u20ac1.7 billion during the period.<\/p>\n
Article 8 funds ( funds that promote environmental and\/or social characteristics), on the other hand, received \u20ac53.4 billion in net inflows.<\/p>\n
Separately, net acquisitions by European households totalled \u20ac54 billion in the fourth quarter of 2025, remaining at elevated levels and underlining the sector\u2019s importance as a savings vehicle across the region.<\/p>\n
Thomas Tilley, deputy director of research and senior economist at Efama, said: \u201cDemand for ETFs continued unabated in Q1 2026, undeterred by the outbreak of the Iran conflict at the end of February. Quarterly net inflows surpassed the \u20ac100 billion mark for the first time this quarter, underscoring the continued appeal of ETFs among both retail and institutional investors.\u201d<\/p>\n
