Only One-Eighth of Large Firms Net Inflows

Reported by Neil Anderson, Managing Editor

As market volatility and industry outflows spiked last month, only one eighth of these fund firms had net inflows.

This article draws from Morningstar Direct data for April 2022 mutual fund and ETF flows, excluding money market funds and funds of funds. (Other asset management products, like collective trusts and SMAs, are also not included.) More specifically, this article focuses on the 24 firms (down from 25 in March) with between $100 billion and $500 billion each in long-term fund AUM.

Large fund firms had a combined $5.012 trillion in long-term fund AUM as of April 30, 2022, and they accounted for 20.39 percent of overall industry long-term fund AUM. That compares with $5.025 trillion and 18.99 percent on March 31.

Three large fund firms brought in net long-term fund inflows last month, down from six in March.

Charles Schwab took the lead last month, thanks to an estimated $2.538 billion in net April 2022 inflows, down month-over-month from $2.857 billion in March 2022 and down year-over-year from $5.41 billion in April 2021. The only other April 2022 inflows winners were: Edward Jones' Bridge Builder, $1.871 billion (down M/M from $3.624 billion, up Y/Y from $996 million); and American Century (including Avantis), $74 million (down M/M from $91 million, down Y/Y from $915 million).

On the flip side, Allianz's Pimco kept the outflows lead last month for the third month in a row, thanks to an estimated $4.894 billion in April 2022 outflows, down M/M from $8.231 billion in March 2022 and down Y/Y from $2.27 billion in April 2021 inflows. Other big April 2022 outflows sufferers included: Franklin Templeton (including Royce), $4.444 billion (up M/M from $3.416 billion, down Y/Y from $199 million in net inflows); Lord Abbett, $2.787 billion (up M/M from $2.427 billion, down Y/Y from $1.678 billion in net inflows); Morgan Stanley (including Calvert and Eaton Vance), $2.558 billion (down M/M from $3.113 billion, down Y/Y from $1.171 billion in net inflows); and Goldman Sachs, $2.356 billion (up M/M from $578 million, down Y/Y from $1.147 billion in net inflows).
