The number of individuals — unit holders increased by almost a quarter in 2021 Q2 to exceed 4.5 million.
Exchange-traded funds once again became leaders in terms of the growth of the number of clients — they accounted for more than 80% of 865,000 new investors. At the same time, the net inflow of funds to unit investment funds (UIFs) slowed down in quarterly terms. This is largely due to the effect of a high base: early this year, the inflow was close to a record high. Investments in interval unit investment funds (IUIFs) increased significantly — almost three times compared to the previous period.
