Emerging-market equity funds posted the first net withdrawals since May in the week ended Dec. 22 amid concern China will continue tightening monetary policy, trimming a record-setting year for inflows, EPFR Global said.

For the year, emerging-market stock funds have taken in a record $92.5 billion and bond funds investing in developing economies had inflows of $52.5 billion, nearly seven times their previous annual inflows on record.
