Unit trust AUMs up 7.7% to Rs. 613.2 b at end-July 2025

August 21, 2025

THE unit trust industry has grown 7.7%, with total Assets Under Management (AUMs) reaching Rs. 613.2 billion as of end-July 2025, up from Rs. 569.2 billion a year ago, data from the Unit Trust Association of Sri Lanka (UTASL) shows.

Unit trust funds with equity exposures continue to generate gains in 2025, while fixed income and money market funds are delivering single-digit returns that appeal to cautious investors.

The benchmark All Share Price Index (ASPI) of the Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE) had gained 23.2% during the first seven months of 2025, compared to an annual growth of 49.7% in 2024. The active S&P SL20 rose 18.5% in the seven months of 2025, down from 58.5% for the full year 2024.

Out of 84 unit trusts covered in the latest UTASL performance report, 28 are equity-related. Of these, 13 funds outperformed the ASPI benchmark, while the rest trailed it.
