Evaluating Mutual Fund Performance
We study standard mutual fund performance measures, using simulated funds whose characteristics mimic actual funds. We find that performance measures used in previous mutual fund research have little ability to detect economically large magnitudes ~e.g., three percent per year! of abnormal fund performance, particularly if a fund’s style characteristics differ from those of the value-weighted m...
متن کاملDoes Fund Size Erode Mutual Fund Performance? The Role of Liquidity and Organization
We investigate the effect of scale on performance in the active money management industry. We first document that fund returns, both before and after fees and expenses, decline with lagged fund size, even after accounting for various performance benchmarks. We then explore a number of potential explanations for this relationship. This association is most pronounced among funds that have to inve...
متن کاملMutual Fund Management: Does Active Management Pay?
Recent studies have documented a positive relation between active management and mutual fund performance. We show that this relation holds only for fund managers who trade in an optimal way. The optimality measure that we develop, “investment alpha”, captures whether a mutual fund is trading towards mean-variance optimality, which, we argue, is the first best choice for mutual fund managers. Th...
متن کاملStyle Dispersion and Mutual Fund Performance∗
We estimate investment style dispersions for individual actively managed equity mutual funds, which describe how widely fund investments are distributed around the core fund style along the dimensions of size, book-to-market, and momentum, respectively. We find that high style dispersions, especially that along the size dimension, are associated with superior fund performance, consistent with h...
متن کاملMutual Fund Performance: Evidence From the UK
This paper uses a large sample containing the complete return histories of 2300 UK openended mutual funds over a 23-year period to measure fund performance. We find some evidence of underperformance on a risk-adjusted basis by the average fund manager, persistence of performance and the existence of a substantial survivor bias. Similar findings have been reported for US equity mutual funds. New...
