Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of mutual funds for individual investors has increased in recent decades. This becomes apparent when looking at the increased share of households owning mutual funds. These mutual fund investors usually want to receive a return which is above or at least close to the mutual fund’s benchmark. Consequently, investors want to invest in those funds which will show these patterns in the future. Some of these mutual funds receive much attention, since they generate extraordinary high performance. But the question that remains is whether it is possible to predict such performance before funds exhibit such outstanding performance. In the past, mutual fund investors focused extensively on performance or performance linked patterns, like the Morningstar star rating, and thus chased past performance. This seems surprising since performance persists only over a short time and is more persistent to weak mutual funds (1 and 2 star rated) than well performing mutual funds. Thus, chasing past performances seems to be a rather inferior strategy. Therefore, investors should try to identify alternative tools showing a high correlation to future mutual fund performance. In this book, mutual funds are analysed, especially open-end mutual funds and actively managed mutual funds. The main focus is on what purpose and usefulness active investments have and whether performance is persistent and what the determinants of mutual fund flows are. Moreover, some alternative measures will be introduced by explaining which attributes or methods should be used and avoided when selecting mutual funds.

This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to prevent runs on open-end mutual funds? In recent years, markets have observed an innovation that changed the way open-end funds are priced. Alternative pricing rules (known as swing pricing) adjust funds’ net asset values to pass on funds’ trading costs to transacting shareholders. Using unique data on investor transactions in U.K. corporate bond funds, we show that swing pricing eliminates the first-mover advantage arising from the traditional pricing rule and significantly reduces redemptions during stress periods. The positive impact of alternative pricing rules on fund flows reverses in calm periods when costs associated with higher tracking error dominate the pricing effect.

Download or read book Do Social Factors Influence Investment Behavior and Performance? Evidence from Mutual Fund Holdings written by Arian Borgers and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We study the economic significance of social dimensions in investment decisions by analyzing the holdings of U.S. equity mutual funds over the period 2004-2012. Using these holdings, we measure funds' exposures to socially sensitive stocks in order to answer two questions. What explains cross-sectional variation in mutual funds' exposure to controversial companies? Does exposure to controversial stocks drive fund returns? We find that exposures to socially sensitive stocks are weaker for funds that aim to attract socially conscious and institutional investor clientele, and they relate to local political and religious factors. The financial payoff associated with greater “sin” stock exposure is positive and statistically significant, but becomes non-significant with broader definitions of socially sensitive investments. Despite the positive relation between mutual fund return and sin stock exposure, the annualized risk-adjusted return spread between a portfolio of funds with highest sin stock exposure and its lowest-ranked counterpart is statistically not significant. The results suggest that fund managers do not tilt heavily towards controversial stocks because of social considerations and practical constraints.

Performance indicators and investment behavior of a team's decision-making process written by Yunus Cagdas and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2022-01-31 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic Paper from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 2,0, University of Hohenheim (Institut für Financial Management), language: English, abstract: The aim of this study is to identify differences in investment behavior - and in particular the special case of a team's decision-making process - as well as possible performance indicators. The research results to be presented should be used as guidance in selecting an appropriate management structure for the mutual fund industry. Before addressing the differing investment behaviors of the two management structures, the special dynamics that can operate within a team in decision making have to be examined. For this said purpose, the relevant literature provides some conflicting theories on decision making. When looking at the proportion of team-managed and single-managed mutual funds, it is observed that team funds have increased at the cost of single-managed funds. Thus, from 1992 to 2015, within all mutual funds, team-managed funds increased from 12% to 57%, while single-managed funds decreased from 88% to 43%. A similar development can be seen in the change of the management structure of a fund in Figure 1: A total of 553 mutual funds, which were previously managed individually, switched to a team fund, whereas only 317 funds changed from a team-managed fund to an single-managed fund. A crossover in the proportion of teams after the global financial crisis in 2008, in times when risk reduction by diversification began to gain in importance, is clearly observable. Thus, it should be in the interest of mutual funds to possess sufficient management diversity to reach an adequate niveau of diversification. As argued by Tom Stevenson, the investment director of Fidelity International, besides gender diversity, diversity in cognition, education and mindset represent a great strength. Research on the mutual fund industry indicates some differences in the investment behavior between team-managed and single-managed mutual funds. Especially concerning teams, different theories of decision making can be found, resulting in different investment styles and performance levels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper compares the fund selection criteria used by investors in retail mutual funds with the criteria of investors in institutional mutual funds. I find that, compared with investors of retail mutual funds, clients of institutional mutual funds use more quantitatively sophisticated criteria such as risk-adjusted return measures and tracking error, demonstrate stronger momentum-driven and herding behaviors, and are less sensitive to fund expense ratio. In addition, I provide evidence that the previously-documented convex form of the flow-performance relationship is driven mostly by retail funds.

Download or read book Mutual Fund Investor Behavior Across the Business Cycle written by Scott Cederburg and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mutual fund investor behavior changes across the business cycle. In economic expansions, investors strongly display the documented behaviors of chasing returns and searching for managerial skill. Expansion investors earn higher returns and alphas by pursuing this strategy, but this result is partially explained by the momentum effect. In contrast, recession investors do not chase returns and exhibit a weaker tendency to seek alpha. Even before controlling for momentum, no smart money effect exists in recessions. Instead of chasing performance, recession investors make investment decisions to change their exposure to aggregate risk factors. Investors tend to avoid funds with exposure to the market and book-to-market factors during recessions, while they show the opposite pattern in expansions.
