Download or read book The Mutual Fund Industry written by R. Glenn Hubbard and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mutual funds form the bedrock of retirement savings in the United States, and, considering their rapid growth over recent decades, are sure to become even more financially critical in the coming decades. Because the size of fees paid by investors to mutual fund advisers can strongly affect the return on investment, these fees have become contentious in Congress and the courts, with many arguing that investment advisers grow rich at the expense of investors. This groundbreaking book not only conceptualizes a new economic model for the industry but uses this model to test price competition between investment advisers. Its highly experienced authors track the growth of the industry over the past twenty-five years and present the arguments and evidence both for and against theories of adviser malfeasance, as well as the assertion that market forces fail to protect investors' returns from excessive fees. The volume briefly reviews the regulatory history of mutual fund fees and leading case decisions addressing excessive fees. It also reveals the extent to which the governance structure of mutual funds impacts fund performance. There is no greater text for those who seek to understand today's mutual fund industry, including investors, money managers, fund directors, securities lawyers, economists, and those concerned with regulatory policy toward mutual funds

Download or read book A Handbook of Mutual Fund Investing written by Barry G. Dolgin and published by MPGI LLC. This book was released on 2010-12-30 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written for the serious mutual fund investor seeking a new and very different approach to mutual fund portfolio construction. It introduces F.S.I. ("Fund Screen Investigation"), the author's proprietary process for mutual fund portfolio construction. The process is highly structured, analytic, quantitative, and based on a set of assumptions regarding the workings of markets and investor psychology. The acknowledgment and measurement of risk is central to the process. A theme that resonates throughout the book is that things are not always as they appear in the investment world. Accordingly, the reader is offered a new perspective for viewing the investment world and specific suggestions for what to focus on. "Show me the numbers!" is a refrain that reflects and underscores this theme. Fundamental investment topics such as allocation, correlation, diversification, and index investing are also discussed. F.S.I. provides the blueprints for constructing discrete portfolios that vary by historical levels of risk and return. Readers can variably weight these portfolios with their investment dollars to express their overall level of risk tolerance and objectives, thereby creating a uniquely personal investment strategy, and one which offers a significant degree of flexibility, facilitating modification if circumstances change. This flexibility is of particular importance to retirees and investors approaching retirement as they formulate their individual plans.
