The highest selling individual fund was Jupiter Merlin Income Portfolio which is worth £4.1bn and managed by John Chatfeild-Roberts.
It was followed by Invesco Perpetual Distribution and Newton Global Higher Income in second and third place. The most popular company was M&G, a corporate member of the Institute of Financial Planning, which had three funds, M&G Global Dividend, M&G Optimal Income and M&G Strategic Corporate Bond, in the top 10.
Michelle Woodburn, head of fund group relations at Cofunds, said: "The Mixed Investment 20-60 per cent sector remains popular with advisers. However, it is not as concentrated as it was earlier in 2012. Bonds are also still in favour over equities, with UK, Global, Euro and Specialist Equity funds seeing the highest outflows whilst Strategic Bonds fund have seen high inflows."
