Download or read book Investor's Perception, Awareness and Preference in Financial Asset for Investment written by Hardik Shah and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many investment options are available for the investors to invest. Many times investors are aware of it and few times they are not aware of it. At last, for an individual investor the important thing is the capital appreciation. If they will get the capital appreciation from only one or two investment option and if they are satisfied with it then they will not think of the other avenues of the investment, which might give them more return compare to the others. It has been observed that the overall market of interest on government securities, bank deposits and other fixed deposit has been decreasing year after steadily due to various factors, which affect the interest of the investors and the rate of interest of the investors. On the other hand, the investor's interest is gradually shifted towards mutual funds, shares and other company securities. When compare to bank deposits the return from mutual funds is high. Likewise, when compare to mutual funds the return from equity market is very high. However, of course risk is also high in these securities. Hence, it is very important to know the awareness of the investors in financial assets and how far the investors are aware of the stock market operation, procedures and financial intermediaries. By keeping these issues in mind the present study -- investor's awareness and preference in financial asset for investment is undertaken.

Book Synopsis Do Local Investors Know More? Evidence from Mutual Fund Location and Investments by : Johan Sulaeman
Download or read book Do Local Investors Know More? Evidence from Mutual Fund Location and Investments written by Johan Sulaeman and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although investors' preference for nearby investments has been widely documented in the literature, there is no apparent consensus on whether local investors have any informational advantage. Analyzing the equity holdings of a large sample of actively managed mutual funds, I find evidence consistent with a perception in the mutual fund industry that local funds have an informational advantage. However, the portfolio of mutual funds' local holdings do not display significant superior performance relative to the portfolio of their distant holdings. Using a parsimonious model, I hypothesize that the profitability of local informational advantage will be low due to price impact when there is a relatively large population of local agents who trade on similar private information. Consistent with this hypothesis, I find that funds do earn superior returns on local stocks for which the aggregate local capital is limited and hence the price impact of local trades is likely to be small. Overall, the results suggest that although local investors have some informational advantage, this local advantage does not lead to superior abnormal performance by local managers because of the price impact of their trading.

Book Synopsis Two Essays on Stock Preference and Performance of Institutional Investors by : Jin Xu (doctor of finance.)
Download or read book Two Essays on Stock Preference and Performance of Institutional Investors written by Jin Xu (doctor of finance.) and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two essays on the stock preference and performance of institutional investors are included in the dissertation. In the first essay, I document that mutual fund managers and other institutional investors tend to hold stocks with higher betas. This effect holds even after precisely controlling for stocks' risk characteristics such as size, book-to-market equity ratio and momentum. This is contrary to the widely accepted view that betas are no longer associated with expected returns. However, these results support my simple model where a fund manager's payoff function depends on returns in excess of a benchmark. For the manager, on the one hand, he tends to load up with high beta stocks since he wants to co-move with the market and other factors as much as possible. On the other hand, the manager faces a trade-off between expected performance and the volatility of tracking error. My model thus shows that the manager prefers to choose higher beta than his benchmark, and that his beta choice has an optimal level which depends on his perceived factor returns and volatility. My empirical findings further confirm the model results. First, I show that the effect of managers holding higher beta stocks is robust to a number of alternative explanations including the effects of their liquidity selection or trading activities. Second, consistent with the model predictions of managers sticking close to their benchmarks during risky periods, I demonstrate that the average beta choice of mutual fund managers can predict future market volatility, even after controlling for other common volatility predictors, such as lagged volatility and implied volatility. The second essay is the first to explicitly address the performance of actively managed mutual funds conditioned on investor sentiment. Almost all fund size quintiles subsequently outperform the market when sentiment is low while all of them underperform the market when sentiment is high. This also holds true after adjusting the fund returns by various performance benchmarks. I further show that the impact of investor sentiment on fund performance is mostly due to small investor sentiment. These findings can partially validate the existence of actively managed mutual funds which underperform the market overall (Gruber 1996). In addition, when conditioning on investor sentiment, the pattern of decreasing returns to scale in mutual funds, recently documented in Chen, Hong, Huang, and Kubik (2004), is fully reversed when sentiment is high while the pattern persists and is more pronounced when sentiment is low. Further results suggest that smaller funds tend to hold smaller stocks, which is shown to drive the above patterns. I also document that smaller funds have more sentiment timing ability or feasibility than larger funds. These findings have many important implications including persistence of fund performance which may not exist under conventional performance measures.

Download or read book Equity Shares Or Mutual Funds - What Does Individual Investor Prefer written by Shruti Maheshwari and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Savings and investments are vital for economic growth of a nation. Government consistently makes an effort to boost savings and thus capital formation in the economy. Individual Investors play a significant role in this process. Although they purchase a very small amount of financial instrument in the market but since they are the major suppliers of household savings, all financial institutions try to attract them by offering various financial services and instruments so as to meet their investment needs and objectives. The present study aims to understand preference of individual investors between two popular investment avenues - equity and mutual funds. The study also establishes preference given by investors to the selection criterions for choosing investment avenues as well as investment objectives. Today investors are well informed and educated therefore they consider several factors before making an investment decision. Such decisions are also governed by their socioeconomic profile. A study in this regard is significantly important to investment marketers as well as government and regulators. They can market their product and also formulate the financial market policies better if they are aware about investor's requirements and preferences.

Book Synopsis Valuation of Unlisted Direct Investment Equity by : Emmanuel O. Kumah
Download or read book Valuation of Unlisted Direct Investment Equity written by Emmanuel O. Kumah and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2009-11-01 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper analyzes the seven valuation methods for unlisted direct investment equity included in the recently adopted IMF Balance of Payments and International Investment Position Manual, Sixth Edition (BPM6). Based on publicly available Danish data, we test the three methods that are generally applicable and find that the choice of valuation method and estimation technique can have a highly significant impact on the international investment position, pointing to the need for further harmonization. The results show that the price-to-book value method generates more robust market value estimates than the price-to-earnings method. This finding suggests that the valuation basis for the forthcoming Coordinated Direct Investment Survey - own funds at book value -will provide useful information for compiling the international investment position.
