Australian investors go cold on equity funds after recent lockdowns By Neil Griffiths 20 July 2021
Investor appetite for equity funds has cooled off on the back of recent lockdowns around Australia.
According to global fun network Calastone’s Q2 fund flow index (FFI) for Australia, equity fund flows were down almost 20 per cent over the last quarter.
Between April and June in particular, inflows fell by a fifth (-19.7 per cent) compared with the first quarter of 2021, which is more than two-fifths lower the net amount of capital added in the fourth quarter.

Over the whole three-month period, net buying of funds focused on Australian equities held up better than most other geographical flavours of equity funds, as inflows dropped by just 6%. Global funds saw inflows drop 21%, while regionally-focused funds saw inflows fall by 40% which included emerging market funds that struggled due to a stronger US dollar. Real estate funds struggled too as inflows fell to $115 million in June, their lowest level in 11 months, and more than 36% lower than the average since July last year. However, fixed income saw a 42% quarter-on-quarter jump in net flows for Q2.

21 July 2021 After six months of record buying, Australian investors have “cooled their appetite” for equity funds in Q2, according to Calastone. Calastone’s quarterly Fund Flow Index (FFI) showed during Q2 inflows to equity funds fell 19.7%, compared to Q1 and were more than two-fifths lower than the net amount of capital added in Q4. Despite this decline, the $2.4 billion net inflow was still high and was around double the average quarterly total since early 2019, which was more than three times higher than the same period in 2020. Over the whole three-month period, net buying of funds focused on Australian equities held up better than most other geographical flavours of equity funds, as inflows dropped by just 6%. ....
7 May 2021 Equity funds gained $3 billion in assets under management during the first quarter of 2021, with half of that coming in March, according to Calastone. In its latest Fund Flows report, the firm said more capital was added to equity funds in February and March than in all of 2019. This particularly went into global equity funds and those focused on Australian equities while specialist and emerging market funds also saw good demand from investors. On the other hand, outflows were seen in equity income funds after dividend cuts in Australia, Europe and the UK. “Sell orders for equity income funds have outgunned buy orders more than 2:1 since April last year. These funds have seen outflows for nine consecutive months by the end of March,” the firm said. ....
