The investment fund industry has 100,000 new investors in September 2021 compared to September 2020 and 52.9 billion lei under management, representing 4.6% of Romania's GDP, the president of the Association of Fund Administrators (AAF) , Horia Gusta. “We have 52.9 billion lei under management, in industry at the end of September. We have 100,000 investors more in September 2021 compared to September 2020. What we like more is that industry grew last year by 24% and investors in share funds grew by 100%. While last year we had 16,337 investors in share funds, today we have 33,111, which probably shows that these figures are determined by the stock market evolution in general and the evolution of stock issuers in particular. There are more factors which showed these increases: the very good fund profitability,”Horia Gusta said at the conference devoted to the stock market I Romania and organized by Oxygen Events. Gusta added that in Romania, industry could represent at least 10% of GDP in the near future if the growth rate is maintained. “From data we have the share of stock in industry management is 4.6% of GDP. Unfortunately, if we look at Europe we are one but last, before Bulgaria. In Croatia, the asset management industry represents 7% of GPD, in Czech Republic it is 7.9% of GDP, in Hungary it is 15%, France 95% and German 81%. It depends on us how we succeed to explain to the people what these investment funds do, how easily they are accessed,” Horia Gusta said.
