Goldman Leads With $854MM


A publicly traded investment bank's asset management arm took the inflows lead last month among large fund firms, even as the group's outflows rose, according to the latest data from the folks at a publicly traded investment research firm.

This article draws from Morningstar Direct data on July 2023 mutual fund and ETF flows, excluding money market funds and funds of funds. (Other asset management products, like CITs and SMAs, are also not included.) More specifically, this article focuses on the 23 firms with between $100 billion and $500 billion each in long-term fund AUM.

Large fund firms had a combined $4.895 trillion in total long-term fund AUM across 13,770 funds as of July 31, 2023, and they accounted for 19 percent of overall industry long-term fund AUM. That compares with $4.798 trillion, 14,938 funds, and 19.21 percent of industry AUM on June 30, 2023, and with $4.778 trillion and 19.77 percent of industry AUM on July 31, 2022.

12 large fund firms brought in net inflows last month. That's up month-over-month from 10 in June 2023 and up year-over-year from seven in July 2022.

Goldman Sachs took the lead last month, thanks to an estimated $854 million in net July 2023 inflows, up M/M from $284 million in June 2023 outflows and up Y/Y from $122 million in July 2022 outflows.
