Russia traditionally ensured inflows to mutual investment funds (MIFs) and liquidity. However, the net inflow of funds to the funds in January – March 2026 slowed down slightly compared to the relatively high indicators of the IV quarter, but was significantly higher than a year earlier.
The best dynamics were shown by closed PIFs due to corporate funds, with inflows in which grew 5 times in the first quarter, reaching 325 billion rubles.
Investments by retail investors in open and exchange-traded mutual funds, on the contrary, decreased – by 5.7%, to 382 billion rubles. Shareholders mainly chose strategies oriented towards bonds and money market instruments. Citizens’ interest in debt instruments continues against the backdrop of the easing of monetary policy.
In the trust management segment, the asset volume updated a record indicator and reached 3.5 trillion rubles. The market continued to adapt to the cancellation of standard strategies, previously mainly focused on retail clients. The outflow of funds from such strategies has noticeably decreased. Investors chose individual management. The inflow volume amounted to 70 billion rubles, mostly contributed by qualified investors.
