Rates 2022: what rebound for funds in euros?

Heel value of savings in France, the booklet A obviously gives the LA. Including for insurers and their funds in euros, star support for life insurance with no less than 1385 billion euros in assets.

Despite all the incentives from banks, brokers and insurers to invest in risky funds (unit-linked) for life insurance, the fund in euros and its capital guarantee at all times still weighs 73% of the 1874 billion euros (1) savings life insurance. Besides, the livret A and its 369 billion euros remains a drop of water… Despite this apparent imbalance, the most widespread investment is and remains the livret A. The rebound in its rate to 2% in the summer of 2022 and its probable rise of more than 3% in February 2023 cannot leave insurers impassive. It’s a certainty: after having fallen to 1.28% on average, the yields of funds in euros will rebound.

Average return of the fund in euros over 10 years

Will they bounce back to booklet A level? The 2% rate is obviously symbolic. Observers predict a average yield ranging between 1.6% and 2% for the year 2022. And even if your insurer announces a net management fee rate of 2% for the past year, it should not be forgotten that this return is before tax. So at best 1.66% annual return in 2022 after social security contributions for a fund showing 2%, if we consider that you benefit from the income tax deduction.

Star funds, bank contracts… what to expect?

Will there be a fund in euros with a return of more than 3% net of management fees for the year 2022? Bone bet … The best bidder, last year, has therefore already been unveiled and Garance has only raised his remuneration by 0.05 points, to 2.80%.

Cyrille Chartier-Kastler, founder of Good value for money and recognized analyst in the life insurance sector, anticipates sharper rebounds for the former bottom of the class. Otherwise, they would risk seeing their remuneration be totally disconnected from the other investment families.

Last year, for the 2021 returns of traditional funds, the fund in euros of the Garance Epargne contract (2.75%) dominated the ranking ahead of the MACSF (2.10%), when the Caisse d’Epargne and its 0, 50% served on several old contracts closed the market.
