Net sales of regulated open-end funds by type

Net sales of regulated open-end long term bond funds worldwide declined in 2020, falling by around 300 billion U.S. dollars from the previous year. Despite this, bond funds remained the type of mutual fund with the highest net sales for 2020, with around 730 billion U.S. dollars. This is far higher than the net sales recorded for equity funds, mixed funds, and mutual funds based on other assets (such as real estate).
