In the fourth quarter of 2015, total net inflows from assets under management reached 21 billion euro. The total flows of the past year thus rise to 141,7 billion, a clear increase compared to 2014 (+133,4 billion euro). The assets of the industry grew reaching an all-time high of 1.835 billion.
As reported by Assogestioni, net inflows in 2015 represent the best result since 2003, i.e. since the Association publishes monthly data on inflows from portfolio management.
Going into detail, net inflows from open-ended funds amounted to 94,7 billion, higher than the 91,4 billion in all of 2014 and the 48,4 billion in 2013. Institutional and retail portfolio management in 2015 recorded flows equal to 46,2 billion, 5,2 billion more than in 2014. Again this is the best figure for sixteen years. Inflows from portfolio management in 2015 came above all from the management of insurance products (+19,4 billion) and from asset management in retail securities (+10,6 billion).
