(The data also excludes other asset management products, like CITs and separate accounts.*) More specifically, this article focuses on the 150 firms (up by two month-over-month from May 2025 but down by one year-over-year from June 2024) that offer passively managed, long-term mutual funds or ETFs.

BlackRock (including iShares) led the pack for a second month in a row, thanks to an estimated $36.461 billion in net June 2025 passive inflows, up by $17.536 billion M/M from May 2025 but down by $4.67 billion Y/Y from June 2024. Other big June 2025 passive inflows winners included:

  • State Street Investment Management (SSIM, fka SSGA), $10.805 billion (up by $13.094 billion M/M, up by $13.113 billion Y/Y);
  • Vanguard, $7.802 billion (down by $9.364 billion M/M, up by $431 million Y/Y); and
  • Schwab, $1.505 billion (up by $116 million M/M, down by $1.617 billion Y/Y).

    • On the flip side, Rafferty's Direxion took the outflows lead last month, thanks to an estimated $1.971 billion in net June 2025 passive outflows, up by $1.823 billion M/M from May 2025 and up by $823 million Y/Y from June 2024. Other big June 2025 passive outflows sufferers included:

  • ProShares and ProFunds, $711 million (down by $339 million M/M, down by $1.168 billion Y/Y);
  • Jackson, $646 million (up by $238 million M/M, up by $100 million Y/Y); and
  • Guggenheim (including Rydex), $395 million (a $581-million net flows drop M/M, up by $82 million Y/Y).

    • Overall, passive funds brought in a combined $69.685 billion in net inflows in June 2025, up by $9.479 billion M/M and up by $7.815 billion Y/Y. 53.3 percent of passive fund families (80 of 150) brougth in net passive inflows in June 2025, up from 51.4 percent in May 2025 and up from 42.4 percent in June 2024.

    *This caveat is particularly important for large fund firms, many of which are big players in the 401(k) business, where collective investment trusts (CITs) and institutional separately accounts are commonly used alternatives to traditional mutual funds.
