The Luxembourg Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier published its monthly statistics on undertakings for collective investment (UCIs), showing total net assets of UCIs under the 2010 Law, specialised investment funds and SICARs of EUR 6,294.473bn at 31 January 2026, up from EUR 6,199.370bn at 31 December 2025. Net assets rose by EUR 95.103bn over the month, reflecting EUR 31.223bn (0.50%) of positive net capital investment and a EUR 63.880bn (1.03%) positive market effect, with net assets up 6.16% over the last twelve months. The number of UCIs fell to 3,013 from 3,036, including 2,027 umbrella structures representing 12,300 sub-funds, and 986 entities with a traditional structure, for a total of 13,286 active fund units. Market commentary in the release links January’s performance to heightened geopolitical tensions alongside improving activity data and inflation, with equity markets recording gains and net capital investment positive across equity categories except US equities. For fixed income, the Federal Reserve kept benchmark rates unchanged at 3.5% to 3.75%, and while all fixed income UCI categories recorded positive monthly returns except USD money market and USD-denominated bonds (affected by currency movements), net capital investment was positive overall except for slight outflows from EUR- and USD-denominated bonds and global market bonds. Eight UCIs were registered on the official list during the month (one UCITS, six 2010 Law Part II UCIs and one SICAR), while 31 UCIs were deregistered (nine UCITS, three 2010 Law Part II UCIs, 16 specialised investment funds and three SICARs). The publication also notes one UCI whose designated management company was authorised by another EU Member State competent authority under Directive 2009/65/EC.
