Gender and Human Capital of Mutual Fund Managers and the Operating Efficiency
No study has explored the relationship among gender differences, human capital, and investment performance. This article is the first to answer the question, “Do female fund managers outperform male ones in fund performance given the same amount of human capital inputs?” Forty-two stock fund managers in Taiwan, 11 females and 31 males, were the subjects of this research. The research period for...
متن کاملMutual fund performance evaluation: a value efficiency analysis approach
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is an efficient tool for evaluating mutual fund performance. It is important for investors to select the best funds for investment. In evaluation of mutual fund performance, besides quantitative elements, there are many qualitative elements that are of importance to the investors. In this paper, value efficiency analysis (VEA) was used in mutual funds performance...
متن کاملDoes international trade improve environmental efficiency? An application of a super slacks-based measure of efficiency
This study analyzes the impact of international trade on environmental efficiency. Using a data envelopment analysis (DEA) model that allows us to treat undesirable outputs and super-efficiency beyond unity, we measure the environmental efficiency of four typical air pollutants—SO2, NOx, particulate matter 10 μm or less in diameter, and CO2—for 98 countries for the period 1970–2008. The resulti...
متن کاملA slacks-based measure of efficiency in data envelopment analysis
In this paper, we will propose a Slacks-Based measure (SBM) of efficiency in DEA. This scalar measure deals directly with the input surplus and the output shortage of the decision making unit (DMU) concerned. It is unit invariant and monotone decreasing with respect to input surplus and output shortage. Furthermore, this measure is decided only by consulting with the reference set of the DMU an...
متن کاملWhy constrain your mutual fund manager ? $
We examine the form, adoption rates, and economic rationale for various mutual fund investment restrictions. A sample of U.S. domestic equity funds from 1994 to 2000 reveals systematic patterns in investment constraints, consistent with an optimal contracting equilibrium in the fund industry. Restrictions are more common when (i) boards contain a higher proportion of inside directors, (ii) the ...
