Positive flows at GQG


GQG Partners has seen an increase in funds under management to US$88 billion (AU$127 billion).
In an announcement to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), the firm said total FUM had risen from $86.7 billion to $88.9 billion.
This compared to negative flows in the previous month when FUM fell from US$94.6 billion to US$86.7 billion as a result of negative market returns and industry outflows.
The largest area of FUM in July was in its international equities space which had US$31.8 billion in FUM, up from US$31 billion in June, a rise of 2.5%.
However, the largest monthly growth was seen in its US equity funds which rose 8.3% from US$6 billion to US$6.5 billion.
In emerging markets equity, an area which was hindered by Russian exposure earlier this year, FUM returned to positive flows from US$23.3 billion to US$23.6 billion.
