Investment strategies and compensation of a mean-variance optimizing fund manager
This paper introduces a general continuous-time mathematical framework for solution of dynamic mean-variance control problems. We obtain theoretical results for two classes of functionals: the first one depends on the whole trajectory of the controlled process and the second one is based on its terminal-time value. These results enable the development of numerical methods for mean-variance prob...

This study examines the performance of Australian investment management organisations with direct reference to their specific characteristics and strategies employed. Using a unique information source, performance is evaluated for actively managed institutional balanced funds, Australian share funds and Australian bond funds. For balanced mandates, performance is evaluated with respect to the i...
متن کاملFund Manager Duality: Impact on Performance and Investment Behavior
Agency conflicts can arise when a fund manager also chairs the board of the fund. We examine the consequences of this fund manager duality using a broad sample of single managed US equity funds. We find that duality managers significantly underperform non-duality managers. This underperformance results from duality funds in the bottom performance quintile. This suggests that duality managers ca...
متن کاملInvestment Strategies, Fund Performance and Portfolio Characteristics
This paper provides extensive evidence on portfolio characteristics of mutual funds and studies the relation between fund performance and the fund manager's investment strategy. The results show that neither momentum characteristics nor the valuation of stocks can explain differences in fund performance. However, the paper finds a negative firm-size effect that partly explains previous findings...
متن کاملFund Manager Allocation
We show that fund families allocate their fund managers to different market segments such that their skill is rewarded best. Whether a fund manager’s skill is rewarded by higher alpha depends on the efficiency of the market segment in which she works. Even skilled managers can generate alpha only if the market segment is inefficient. Fund families take this relation between skill and inefficien...
