- Press Release
Strong net inflows in equity and bond funds as well as a general positive development in the global financial markets, have led to Austrian investment funds reaching new record levels in the final quarter of 2025. This is a finding from the Austrian Financial Market Authority’s Quarterly Report for Asset Management.
At the end of the 4th quarter, the assets under management in 2,109 investment funds established by Austrian investment fund management companies and fund managers stood at €246.4 billion, 6.8% higher (€15.7 billion) than at the end of 2024. Assets under management increased by 2.5% or €5.9 billion quarter-on-quarter. Equity funds posted net inflows of funds of around €3.9 billion in 2025, and bond funds around €3.1 billion. Mixed funds and real estate funds in contrast posted net outflows. Overall, there was a net increase in funds of €6.05 billion in Austrian funds.
Sustainability funds pursuant to Article 8 and 9 SFDR posted somewhat stronger growth than the market as a whole, and make up around half of the total assets under management (€123.6 bn). ESG or sustainability-related terms in the fund name – which have been coupled with certain obligations since May of last year – are used by 190 funds, managing assets of almost €40 billion. The most frequently used designations originate from the “sustainability”, “ethical” and “ESG” families of designations.
