- The Cyprus investment fund assets saw a slight increase in December 2025, according to the latest statistics released by the Central Bank of Cyprus (CBC).
As the year drew to a close, the total assets of investment funds reached €7.899 billion, marking a modest rise of approximately 0.1 per cent from €7.892 billion in September 2025. This indicates a level of stability within the investment sector during the final quarter.
Despite the increase in total assets, the number of investment funds experienced a minor decline, dropping from 351 in September to 350 by December. This slight reduction suggests a consolidation in the market, even as asset values edged upwards.
According to the CBC data, the assets held by investment organisations included a combination of deposits and loans, which amounted to €827.4 million at the end of December. This figure reflects a decrease from €860.2 million noted three months prior, highlighting a shift in asset management strategies.
A closer look at the asset categories reveals changes in different investment avenues. Investment funds reported holdings in debt securities valued at €605.6 million in December, down from €613.4 million in September. In contrast, there was a notable increase in shares and equity instruments, which rose to €5.87 billion, up from €5.84 billion in the preceding quarter.
Within the total equity holdings, investments in listed shares accounted for €1.24 billion, while a significant €2.99 billion was directed towards non-listed shares. This diversification in investments may indicate a strategic pivot by fund managers in response to market conditions.
The CBC’s report reveals the evolving landscape of investment funds in Cyprus, where asset values can fluctuate even as the number of funds slightly declines. Stakeholders will be keen to monitor these trends as the new year unfolds.
