Flows into funds of funds were also sustained, amounting to £2.3 billion, an increase of 56% year-on-year. Within this subset, balanced funds accounted for 70%. The European Commission's proposal on cross-border mergers introduces a time limit for regulators to collect and assess information pertinent to prospective acquirers. The EC also intends to harmonize assessment criteria across Member States. This will promote consistency and transparency and discourage the abuse of supervisory powers.
