The key highlights from this month’s FFI:
- UK general election drives strong inflows to UK equity funds in November, following four months of pessimism
- Investor optimism being driven by prospect of an end to political deadlock
- Publication of Labour Party manifesto spooked investors, driving sudden reversal of inflows
- More widely equity funds saw their strongest month of inflows in 2019, even though the year is still on track for the weakest equity fund inflows on Calastone’s record
- Active equity funds finally broke a run of many consecutive months of outflows, but investors continued to strongly prefer index funds
