New survey confirms shift to thematic investing

A new survey conducted by Greenwich Associates and sponsored by BNP Paribas Asset Management confirms the strength of the shift to thematic investing. Both institutional and wholesale investors expect a thematic focus in their investments to improve the long-term performance.  

The major shift towards thematic investing continues unabated. Data from Morningstar shows that over the three years to March 2021, assets under management for thematic funds have more than tripled to USD 595 billion. This accounted for 2.1% of all assets invested in equity funds globally, up from 0.6% 10 years ago. Europe is the largest market, with 51% of global assets.
