Our solutions
Stock Flows and Allocations
Stock Flows provide estimates of the flows into a given stock by multiplying the monthly flow into a fund by the last available holdings data. This calculation is repeated for all funds tracked by EPFR and summed into an aggregated figure for over 20,000 individual stocks.
Stock Allocations data, on the other hand, measures the average allocation to a given stock within a specific fund group.
Stock Barometer
EPFR’s Stock Barometer is a tabular form visualization of the Stock Allocations data which captures relevant factors based on the composition of major indexes, such as the S&P 500, Sensex, etc.
Fixed-Income Flows and Holdings
Launched in 4Q21, this dataset captures a view into the ownership of, and demand for, more than 50,000 individual sovereign, corporate and other bonds and fixed income securities.
Utilizing the holdings from a subset of the overall universe of mutual funds and ETFs tracked by EPFR, the dataset aggregates on a daily, weekly and monthly basis:
- the total value of the holdings for each specific ISIN
- calculates the flows in and out of over 50,000 different securities
