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 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...
متن کاملEmployment Networks and Mutual Fund Performance
This paper explores the role of social networks in the portfolio allocation decisions and performance of mutual fund managers. Using a novel dataset, I examine the past employment networks of both mutual fund managers and firm executives. I find that fund managers place larger bets and perform significantly better on firms when they are connected to a senior executive of that firm through overl...
متن کاملExcess Cash and Mutual Fund Performance
I document a positive relationship between excess cash holdings of actively managed equity mutual funds and future fund performance. The difference in returns of portfolios of high and of low excess cash funds amounts to over 2% annually, or approximately 3% after standard risk adjustment. I study whether this difference in performance can be explained by the differences in managerial stock sel...
