The Open-Ended Investment Company Activities industry's revenue is set to contract at a compound annual rate of 5.9% over the five years through 2024-25 to £3.2 billion. The total assets under management in the industry have increased over the past decade, thanks in part to the rollout of automatic enrolment into pensions and the launch of pension funds' capital invested into OEICs. High interest rates caused by soaring inflation damaged the short-term value of fixed assets in portfolios and limited interest in equities. This hampered various markets, including Real Estate, growth industries like FinTech and capital-intensive companies. The cost-of-living crisis prompted retail investors to pull funds from OEICs. UK equity funds felt it most, witnessing a record £1.8 billion outflow in May 2024, according to the Investment Association. This spike extended an existing outflow trend, with 2023 and 2022 seeing £13.6 billion and £12 billion pulled, respectively, as indicated by the Investment Association. However, as prices stabilise and consumer confidence slowly recovers, retail investors have returned to net inflows into funds. Revenue is still rebounding from the drastic hits by inflation and COVID-19, booming at 9.7% in 2024-25, supported by the anticipated sink of interest rates that will pick up investment. Revenue is expected to rise at a compound annual rate of 5.1% to £4.1 billion over the five years through 2029-30. Brexit is likely to continue to impact the industry as UK and EU regulations drift apart, increasing legal costs for OEICs serving clients in the EU. Reforms to insurance margin requirements and the pension age are likely to free up capital used for investments into OEICs. Higher clarity and digital transformation will force a change in the industry with higher domestic investment and digital capabilities being introduced. However, global equity funds are likely to continue to outpace domestic equity thanks to higher returns and liquidity.
