The development of undertakings for collective investment is as follows:

The number of undertakings for collective investment taken into consideration totalled 3,071, against 3,079 the previous month. A total of 2,052 entities adopted an umbrella structure representing 12,327 sub-funds. Adding the 1,019 entities with a traditional UCI structure to that figure, a total of 13,346 fund units were active in the financial centre.
As regards the impact of financial markets on the main categories of undertakings for collective investment and the net capital investment in these UCIs, the following can be said for the month of September.
Equity markets enjoyed another positive month, with several major indices reaching record highs, supported by the widely anticipated decision by the Fed to resume its monetary easing cycle, amid signs of labour market weakness and despite elevated inflation. Market performance was further supported by improved prospects for global economic growth, as well as optimism for artificial intelligence investments, notwithstanding growing concerns on elevated valuation levels and market concentration. Against this backdrop, the categories Latin American and Asian equities delivered the strongest monthly performances, as Emerging markets countries (such as Brazil or Mexico) are expected to benefit from a weak US dollar. In contrast, European equities posted lower gains amid limited improvement of the economic outlook in Germany and ongoing political instability in France.
In September, equity UCI categories registered an overall slight positive capital investment, with limited inflows in the main categories and outflows from the Eastern European and Asian equities categories.

During the month, the Fed decided to cut rates by 25 bps, for the first time in 2025, and suggested that further monetary easing is likely this year. Conversely, the ECB decided to maintain its reference rates unchanged, as anticipated, with no indication of further cuts. Despite the divergences in monetary policy stances, both yield curves flattened: in the US driven by a fall in long term yields and in Europe from a rise in short terms yields. Credit spreads tightened amid a favourable investor sentiment. Against this backdrop, fixed income UCIs delivered positive monthly performances, including some negative currency effects, mostly notably the depreciation of the US dollar against euro by almost 1%.
In September, fixed income UCIs registered an overall positive net capital investment from all bonds categories whereas the EUR and Global money market categories incurred outflows.
