Betashares has shared the top 10 ETFs which saw the largest inflows in September.

In the firm’s monthly ETF update, it said international equities received $1.6 billion which was more than triple the volume of flows seen in the second-highest asset class. 

Breaking it down further, international equities – developed world saw $907 million in inflows, and international equities – US gained $381 million.

This is the fourth month that international equities have seen inflows of more than $1 billion, having seen $1.4 billion in August, $1.6 billion in July, and $1.2 billion in June.

This was followed by $496 million which went into fixed income, primarily Australian bonds, and $331 million in Australian equities. 

Total assets in ETFs now stand at $226.9 billion, having seen growth of $70.8 billion over the last 12 months. During the month, it saw overall inflows of $2.8 billion which was a slight decline after seeing inflows exceeding $3 billion in July and August.

The fund with the largest volume of flows during the month was Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF which received $238.6 million and now fits at $8.9 billion. 

However, the fund is still overshadowed in terms of assets by another rival Vanguard fund, which is the Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares ETF that sits at $16.8 billion in overall assets.

The other international equity ETFs which saw large inflows were VanEck MSCI World Ex-Australia Quality ETF, Betashares Global Shares ETF, Vanguard MSCI Index International Shares (Hedged) ETF,  Betashares Global Shares Currency Hedged ETF, and VanEck MSCI World Ex-Australia Quality (Hedged) ETF.

Only one fixed income ETF was featured on the list this month – the Vanguard Global Aggregate Bond Index (Hedged) ETF.
