Fund flows: Ten funds falling out of favour in 2012

A variety of asset classes and investment strategies feature in the list of funds with the largest outflows in the first half of the year.

The list features a number of high profile managers, including BlackRock's Mark Lyttleton, Jupiter's Anthony Nutt and Martin Currie's Tom Walker. Top of the outflow pile is the Threadneedle Short Dated Corporate Bond fund, which has seen assets shrink from £1.1bn to £99m, the group having transformed the portfolio into a segregated account once it was brought across from LVAM in November 2011. The Aberdeen World Equity fund takes second place, with outflows totalling £850m from January 1 to June 28, while the M&G American fund is in third place.   Fund name  Outflows from 1/...
