- Which are the leading unit trust and OEIC fund managers in the UK?

Key Highlights
Retail deposits (excluding cash ISAs) dominate the UK market in terms of asset balances, with total balances reaching £1,000.7bn at the end of 2014. Unit trusts/OEIC funds are the second biggest retail savings and investments vehicle, with balances standing at £756bn for the same time period.

After a strong 2013, retail equity holdings dipped in 2014. This was due to a combination of performance declines and notable outflows as investors cashed in on the strong 2013 performance.

At the end of 2014, Lloyds Banking Group remained the biggest retail deposit taker in the UK, leading by some margin over second-placed Barclays. Nonetheless, its total retail deposits have fallen slightly compared to 2013. This is due in part to the spin-off of some branches into the reformed TSB Group, subsequently acquired by Spain's Sabadell.
