“ETF equity Ucits experienced record net sales in November, fuelled by market optimism surrounding anticipated tax cuts and deregulation measures from the Trump administration to stimulate US economic growth,” commented Bernard Delbecque, senior director for economics and research at Efama in a communiqué from the industry association. “These inflows primarily favoured US-focused and global ETF equity Ucits, which predominantly invest in US company stocks. This trend echoes the and Letta reports and underscores the urgent need to consider ways to strengthen the EU economy and boost the financing necessary to enhance the competitiveness of EU companies and achieve the climate and digital transitions.”
