Abstract:
Hedge funds have become an important part of the financial sector. The development of the hedge funds in the Nordic countries has been rather robust. Therefore, it is important to identify the determinants of the hedge fund performance and isolate the managerial performance, i.e., the Jensen’s alpha. To this end, this paper construct cross sectional and panel model for the Nordic hedge funds over 2005–2018. The Fung-Hsieh 8-factor model and other models are developed to identify the determinants of the Nordic hedge fund performance. The effects of crises of different nature (local to global, h

Abstract:
The concept of mutual funds in India dates back to the year 1963. The era between 1963 and 1987 marked the existence of only one mutual fund Company in India, namely the Unit Trust of India (UTI), with Rs. 67 billion assets under management (AUM). Few other mutual fund companies entered the mutual fund market later on. The private sector funds started penetrating the fund families during 1993. Kothari Pioneer was the first private sector mutual fund company in India which has now merged with Franklin Templeton. By the end of 1993, the total AUM of the industry was Rs. 470. 04 billion.

The objective of this paper is to assess whether Australian multi-sector managed funds are misclassified, and then, having found this to be the case, determine if this misclassification has any impact on fund performance. We adopt a strong form of returns based style analysis to investigate a monthly sample of Australian multi-sector funds over the five-year sample period 2003:04-2008:03. The evidence provided demonstrates that insufficient attention has been paid as to whether fund managers are able to keep within their tactical asset allocation ranges and presents that misclassification exis

In many financial markets across the globe, full historical position disclosure is not required of mutual funds, or it is subject to prolonged delays, often due to regulatory restrictions.

This study introduces a new methodology utilizing sector weight analysis to estimate the stock-picking and market timing skills of 198 Chinese equity mutual fund managers.

We provide novel evidence that hedge fund performance is persistent following weak hedge fund markets but is not persistent following strong markets. Specifically, we construct two performance measures, RET_DOWN and RET_UP, conditioned on the level of overall hedge fund sector returns. After adjusting for risks, funds in the highest RET_DOWN quintile outperform funds in the lowest quintile by approximately 7% in the subsequent year, whereas funds with better RET_UP do not outperform subsequently. The RET_DOWN measure can predict future fund performance over a horizon as long as 3 years, for bo

Abstract A study of the role of sustainable local content policy in human capacity development in Nigeria’s oil and gas industry – case for the Petroleum Technology Development Fund (PTDF, the Fund) was carried out to find solutions to three fundamental questions: "to what extent has PTDF contributed towards achieving human capacity development in Nigeria" "to what extent has PTDF intervention impacted the oil and gas industry in the last ten years in Nigeria" and "how sustainable is local content policy under the present PTDF mandate in Nigeria". This research was predicated on the skills gap

As the start of the Coronavirus in 2019 has caused public health awareness (Subedi et al., 2020), the spread of the virus raised concerns for schools and universitics to shut down.

Abstract:
In the United States, investors leave large amounts of money on the table when investing in index funds. I show that even though high fees strongly predict poor performance, investors have little sensitivity to fees. This can be explained by fund intermediation in the retail sector and the legal standard of care that intermediaries have towards their clients. Net inflows to high-fee funds are higher when brokers and financial advisors receive sales commissions from the investment management company. When funds are sold through intermediaries held to higher standard of care, such as those sold

Abstract:
The provision of concessional finance has become an increasingly important tool to support enterprise development, especially where financial markets are underdeveloped. For the purposes of this research, concessional finance is defined as that which is extended on terms and/or conditions that are more favourable than those available from the market. This can be achieved, for example, via lower risk adjusted return expectations; terms and conditions that would not be accepted/extended by a commercial financial institution; and/or by providing financing to a borrower/recipient not otherwise ser

An extensive literature analyzes the determinants of research and development (R&D) and the impacts of R&D on firms' innovation performance and productivity. Because most available studies focus on manufacturing firms, very little is known about firms in the service sector. The gap is even more noticeable in the case of service firms in developing countries. Based on data from the latest available Mexican innovation survey, we explore the determinants of-including the barriers to-technological innovation and the impact of innovation on service firms' productivity in Mexico.

Evidence indicates that business support to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in lower middle-income countries (LMICs) can improve firms’ performance, create jobs, and have a positive effect on labour productivity (Piza et al., 2016). The impacts of some approaches to private sector finance such as traditional loans, grants and technical assistance have been studied empirically, but there is limited evidence of the impacts of non-traditional and innovative financing instruments (Mallen & Bungey, 2019; Piza et al., 2016).

The Sin Tax Reform Act of 2012 and its amendments aim to increase revenue for public health spending and reduce tobacco smoking and alcohol use. This Policy Note evaluates the performance of sin tax allocations for the public health sector. It finds significant increases in the budget allocations for public health programs since the law was enacted, but this did not necessarily lead to improved outcomes and spending capacity. Hence, implementing agencies should be more strategic in requesting, allocating, and utilizing funds to address service coverage gaps. Moreover, the quality of program pe

Our findings show that disbursements improved in the last 10 years; in particular, they improved after the organizational changes instituted after 2006.
