Long-term fund sales in Europe hit a four-month high in July, according to Lipper, which registered net sales of €14.9 billion.
The July numbers bring the year-to-date total to €81.3 billion.
Taking money market funds into consideration, however, net sales were just €2.4 billion owing to the €12.5 billion of outflows.
On a sector level, bond funds saw inflows of €21.7 billion, making July the month with the largest total in a decade.
Also popular were high yield funds, which, across currencies, saw inflows of €7.1 billion.
