Highlights
Fund supermarkets exercise considerable control over the fortunes of fund managers through their short-lists of recommended funds.

Most recently, Spanish legislation has made provisions for two new fund classes available to retail investors exchange traded funds and funds of hedge funds. Year-on-year growth in AuM fell from 11.94% in 2005 to 1.31% in 2006.
