Abstract:
ABSTRACT This paper aimed to investigate the impact of levels of selectivity on the performance of equity funds using a methodology applied for the first time ever (as far as we know) in the Brazilian market. As an indicator of the activity level of a fund, we proposed the coefficient of determination (R2) of the regression of its returns over market returns. In total, 867 funds were analyzed in the period between November 2004 and October 2014. The hypothesis tested is that more selective funds perform better to compensate for their higher operating costs. This hypothesis was confirmed in the

Abstract:
This paper proposes a set of desirable axioms to characterize performance measures in the context of portfolio management. A performance measure consistent with the axioms is called “ideal”. We observe that a popular performance measure, Farinelli–Tibiletti (FT) ratio [S. Farinelli & L. Tibiletti (2008) Sharpe thinking in asset ranking with one-sided measures, European Journal of Operational Research 185 (3), 1542–1547], which captures potential-seeking behavior, is not ideal. It violates a very important property of portfolio theory, the diversification. As an alternative, we propose a ne

Abstract:
This paper assesses the performance of 355 actively managed Japanese Equity Mutual Funds between April 2011 and April 2016. The equal weight portfolio and Jensen’s alpha measures of active management provide strong evidence that Japanese Mutual Funds fail to outperform the benchmark four-factor capital asset pricing model. When it comes to market timing, the Treynor and Mazuy measure shows that 33 funds have significant positive market timing ability which is largely offset by 31 funds with significant negative timing ability. To ensure the statistical inference is robust to the non-normality

Mutual Funds give a platform for everyone to participate within the Indian capital market with skilled fund management no matter the number endowed. In the past few years, among the various financial products in India, Mutual Funds have emerged as the favorite. There is no doubt that acceptance of mutual funds as an investment vehicle has certainly increased among investors as many investors are earning from mutual fund — as result of increase in information and awareness among investors. Smaller amount of risk is associated with mutual fund investment than directly investing in stocks. Fund m

The aim of this paper is to assess the efficiency of a set of 62 precious metal mutual funds (PMMFs) and to explain performance differences between funds using weighted additive data envelopment analysis (DEA) and Tobit regression, respectively. The contribution of this paper is twofold: to provide for the first-time metrics of the relative performance of PMMFs using a particular weighted additive model, namely the range-adjusted measure (RAM), and to explain the performance of the funds by the use of a Tobit model. Results do not suggest positive linkages between RAM-based and standard fund p

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the performance and diversification value of water-related funds. As pollution, climate change and accelerated population growth threaten water resources worldwide, such resources have become a sought-after asset. For most investors, it is impractical to physically hold water as part of a portfolio; therefore, an open question is how to better gain exposure to this asset. The authors propose a look at water-related mutual funds, an issue not found addressed in the literature. In addition to the investment potential of these funds, investors mig

This thesis concludes that the bottom-up beta gives a truer reflection and a more updated beta value than a CAPM regression beta on the firm’s current business mix, the CAPM beta takes only the past stock prices into consideration. The empirical results for Volvo conclude that the levered bottom-up beta is 1.09 and the CAPM β is 0.52 for Volvo. The empirical results for Axfood which is categorized as co

Den höga aktiviteten på marknaden, i samspel med diverse finanskriser de senaste decennierna, har inneburit högre volatilitet på marknaden. Denna volatilitet nådde nya höjder under 2020 som innefattades av ett börsras i samband med Covid-19-pandemin, följt av en stark återhämtning med hjälp av global kapitaltillförsel.
