Nordea Asset Management climbed the rankings for mutual fund sales in Europe in July, while the investment arms of Goldman Sachs and State Street dropped back during a weak month for equity and certain property funds.
The Nordic asset manager climbed the 12-month rankings to third, with net sales of €16.4 billion - after pulling in €3 billion during July alone - according to the data provider Thomson ReutersLipper.
