According to Refinitiv Lipper data, investors exited a net $11.56 billion worth of global equity funds, after obtaining funds worth $13.98 billion in the previous week.
The US and European equity funds recorded withdrawals worth $10.5 billion and $830 million respectively, although Asian funds saw net purchases of $290 million.
By sector, tech witnessed net selling worth $1.87 billion, the biggest outflow in 11 weeks, but financials and healthcare, both received inflows of about $450 million each.
